58 years ago when I was 12 years old, my dad took me to Rios of Mercedes to get fitted for my first custom made boots. I ended up getting a pair of exotic South American lizard boots made. I wore them everyday until I outgrew them. Rios made a very comfortable pair of boots.
I am a big fan of Rios of Mercedes and AB boots, I own quite a few pairs, they are very comfortable and very good quality. I used to work in a western boot factory located in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. I meet Mr Trainor Evans in Denver in 1984 and since then I love Rios of Mercedes boots. Regards from Mallorca (Spain)
I have a pair of ostrich boots from Rios Of Mercedes that I got in 1989. Still look new and I have worn them alot. They are ostrich all the way up the shaft. Outstanding boots from an outstanding company!
I absolutely LOVE my Anderson bean boots.. by far, wayyy better quality than tecovas, Texas made, and it’s honestly on par if not better than some of the big boot brands
Weslaco, TX. It would be nice if we could buy directly from factory!!! Have to order from a $$$$ store for ANDERSON Bean boots… set up a shop locally!!!! ILL BE THERE !!!!
Kind of sucks that can't stop by there place and buy a pair or 2 Have to order them thru other sale reps. And they mark them real high on price The boots I been wanting thru rios it be about 250.00 thru other stores they go 700 to 750 and I'm only 7mins away from Rios
Anybody who wears Luccheses, what is the fit of Rios De Mercedes compared to Luccheses? If you are 8D on Luccheses, can you fit 8D in Rios or you have to go down 1/2 a size?
i really like my anderson bean boots but getting hard to find them at my local stores. Talked with one of the store owners and he told me that the rios people wont sell him boots for his store unless he orders 10k worth of Rios and anderson beans. He said they would give him all the mexican made horse power boots he wanted but people want american made and this company is making it impossible for a small business owner to carry these brands. shame on Rios for doing that
He is absolutely right, we live in a throw away world. Almost impossible to find a local boot repair shop any more. Sad times, and a lost art.

I own 5 pairs of Rios and love each one of them. Most comfortable boot I’ve worn.

Kevin's Work Boots is my go-to for excellent boot repair in Dallas. Simply great!
I glad you made this video I am from the Rio Grande Valley & never knew about this boot shop. Great video.
Same. Living in San Antonio now, but I think I’m going to have to pay a visit.
Wow very cool, Paul Bond boot company, in Nogales is another must see.
Great show and thanks for the info 👍😄😄💯👍👌👌👌👌👌
There’s is always something to learn in your state aid the time.
It’s amazing the quality of work the cobblers and boot makers do. I’d rather get my boots made by a small business than buy a new pair from stores.
Mercedes. My hometown. Wish I would’ve known you were in town. Would’ve enjoyed meeting you.
I like Texas bucket list videos on RUclips from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲

My home town!
