How many pairs of boots do you own? Do you prefer snip toe, buckaroo style, or kangaroo hide? A good pair of boots is a reflection of your personality and will last longer than most new vehicles nowadays, which is something to consider when checking out price tags. A pair of custom boots is often considered the pinnacle of life. The Texas Hill Country has its own share of custom boot makers, so if you are in the market and in the area, consider these shops and support Texas businesses!
