- Craig Cameron talks to world class cowboy boot maker Mike Vaughn about his custom made cowboy boots. A must see video to see how much better a custom pair of cowboy boots is compared to all the rest.
I had a wonderful coworker who gave me all of her late husband’s boots, most of them worn very lightly if at all. One pair was a $500 pair of Lucchese boots that he wore to get married in. All together there were about 15 pairs. I haven’t had to buy a pair of boots in about 17 years!
Lucky son of a gun. I’m a young man who wants to start a small collection. In Texas, I believe a man should own atleast one pair of nice boots.
That's quite a work of art! Incredible craftsmanship!
30 years ago I bought my first Craig Cameron video and went on to train and show cutting horses. I learned ALOT!!
The most expensive boots I know of are made from lawyer skin. They cost $1500 an hour to wear.
wow, that's some cost, I hope at least the lawyers are killed inhumanely.
The people who bring you these foolish demonic comments are the same one who say stupid things like if they can bring suit and have workers compensation they get double recovery. First W/c only pays 2/3rds of the average weekly wage-you agree to take that pay reduction? Next if you recover workers comp gets paid back. Maybe boots should be made from the butt skin of tort reformers or lawyer haters so their ability to think which is impaired could be taken away. Certainly they don’t use grey matter from the brain. I dare you to look at the photos of the oil workers burned at the XTO Ryan well and then say W/C is a valid compensation for their lives!
Business Twenty Twelve People
So very true
How much of the oil workers compensation went to lawyers?
I have a pair of Tony Lama boots that were handmade in 1978. I wear them when I really dress up. Never been half soled or healed, still original.
he's an artist in his job
I would like to learn how to make custom boots one day. At the moment I'm a shoe shiner. This looks like a lot of fun and hard work. My hats off to this man!
Have you tried it yet?
AK Milli there will always be a need for shoe shiners man just not as common because leather shoes isnt all that common
Boy a good shoe shiner can make an old pair of boots look nearly new again. Besides that it feels good like a message on your feet if they do it while your on the spot & not leaving them to be done.
How much does a shoe shine cost on leather boots?
did they mention it's ride smart with craig cameron american horsemanship
Have you seen Bronze Cowboy Pranks on You Tube yet?
I think so hahaha
I don't know
Hunter Tanner Fishing I don't think so 😂

Great video, well paced and very informative. Cheers!
that intro was fucking sick
Thanx Craig, some great information ...
This is the same as getting a custom holster and belt made. Yes the store bought stuff is cheaper but the custom stuff fits and last's so much better.
My horse mentioned to me today that he didn't notice a difference when I was wearing my $1,000 custom boots, the spurs felt the same as when I nudged him with my $180 Ariats...
gcurt1 you must be riding an ass not a horse !
When you get old and your arch breaks down, remember this video. Lots of boots fit pretty good, but custom boots are like hats, they fit right and last a long time.
Buy him a beer.
You talk to your horse???
Not to mention Ariat boots are fugly.
Thank you for posting the video awesome boots
As they say "a man shouldn't cheap out on two things,his footwear and bed because he's either in one or the other".
And life is too short to drink cheap wine.
awsome work guys !!!! two true pros makin boot histories! howdy from saskatchewan !
great video..I am a boot junkie..this is a great watch.
An American craftsman ..nice to see thanks for the upload
I had a pair of Dexter's, lasted me 24 yrs.! Like wearing a pair of slippers. I had 9 pairs and the Dexter's were the best. Would love to have a pair of your's. Sounds like a good bargain. This is a great video in my love of western footware and garb.
This boot maker is talented.
No doubt about it. And I believe in custom made boots.
But sadly I can't afford it.
Michael Petty how much do they worth
If we were all lawyers, doctors or Indian Chiefs we could afford them though. Some of us just ain't that damn fortunate.
Michael Petty HB
Michael Petty aww so sad. Except you don’t even need boots!
You can if you buy a pair @ Rolling Stone Leather Store in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. You can get for $250.00, as good or better, quality crafted boots that would cost $1000.00 here in the states. If you're going to Mexico, buy them there or have someone hook you up who is.
pretty Sharp Boots ! this man is making a good honest living , he really is a Artist IMO ,in today’s factories theyal luse fancy machinery to do everything half those employees wouldn’t know how to make a stitch on a traditional Sewing Machine like he does Mike knows what he is doing for sure it’s a shame our World is losing men and Women like him our true Craftsman
Great video, Great Bootmaker :)!
I’ve never done this and have had great fits
God bless you MIKE it’s hard to believe there’s people out there like you I am crying. I have tears in my eyes right now I just want you to know my heart goes out to you for being a 31 year man. God bless you Mike God bless your hands of gold, that’s my mother to tell me Billy you have a hands of gold you can fix anything and do anything with your hands that’s a blessing in disguise not too many people have a hands of gold, but you should do Mike and it proves every day for every pair of boots you make that that’s what you have and that’s a God given blessedprofessional treat better than 10 college degrees and better than a bag of gold. God bless you MIKE God bless God bless.
Excellent video!
2014 definately cowboy/western-style for me..just loving it, I don't ride horses nomore, but still miss the outfits :)
Have You Seen Bronze Cowboy Pranks on RUclips yet?
No link to the bootmaker in the description? That's nice
Looks great
I have a ton of boots and only 2 or 3 fit so good that I can wear them for most of the day without soreness. I know some people say otherwise but you have to tolerate boots that you wouldn't do for regular shoes. For example you can't run in them and they get very hot in the summer. But I love them and can't get enough of them.
I've had my custom boots for a near 5 years and Im just having my boots resoled because I stepped on a damn nail and it's said when that leather sole is ripped, but im glad i still have the person that made my boots to resole so hopefully i get them within 2 weeks since business is busy
Yes & you can not resole any of these store bought boots of today. This sucks cause there ain't nothing fits better than a broke in pair of boots except for 1 other thing, lol.
I knew Mike many years ago. he's a good guy
At 14:45 where can I buy the green top boot with that heel? It is gorgeous!
'Ol Craig Cameron reminds me of Willem Dafoe in Boondock Saints
Hoping that i will have my cowboy shoes this Christmas 🤠🤠
In 1970, I saved enough money to buy some sharkskin boots. After walking with them a few days, they were more comfortable than tennis shoes. I wore those boots for 5 years. Had them re-soled twice. Since then, I have not found a pair of boots nearly as comfortable. It sounds like I have to go visit Mike Vaughn.
I lived in Texas back in the 90's. I got me a pair of $250.00 boots. It was okay for six months. Then folks at work told me that I walked with a gait. That's when I noticed that my right boot was a little lose and funny. It made me walk like a gunslinger.
very nice. How much is a custom pair of boots. I will start saving now. Thanks
Excellent! I really want my own custom made western cowgirl boots now. I only buy for looks, and will only wear once in a while since I'm a city girl. I really want one though. If I move to the south, I'll definitely want several pairs.
i’m so happy
Well...I enjoyed it. Watched it all the way through and I got ADD.
Don Wilson
I agree
I was fine until I watched this video. Now I have ADD, too.
Damn you, Craig Cameron American Horsemanship Ride Smart guy!
Say that 10 times, r-e-a-l s-l-o-w. (or just watch this video)
I’ve never had custom cowboy boots but I do get custom tailored jeans and I don’t know how long they last as my first pair was10 years ago and they are still in great condition and look maybe a year old.
Video starts at 2:06
Craig Cameron is in this.
Beautiful I love everything
very nice video!
I bought a great pair of stetson pointed toe boots that are a bit tight on the instep,i tried to find the same boots to buy a slightly bigger pair but alas to no avail.
What was the name of the cowboy? I didn't quite catch it.. they ought to put his name up a time or two.
Why stop the welt before the waist? Does it somehow wear on the stirrups?
The only man that deserves a five min intro.
Thank you Sooo much for this video!!!! I was about to buy a pair online but now I'm gonna find a custom store thank you so much!!!!!
Good luck. They're very expensive and there's only a few bootmakers left in the country
probably a stupid question but whats the song that they play during the intro?
HOW DID HE REMEMBER ALL THEM MEASUREMENTS?? LEGEND!!
I have 4 pairs of cowboy boots one is a dan post and one is a justin and to are boulet , boulet are Canadian l like them all I broke them in by wearing them so you get custom made to fit what happens when wear them a while and will thay still fit
this was for show. That is why
Craig: *shakes hand* Nice to meet you, what do you do?
Person: Im a car salesman, what about you?
Craig: Im Craig Cameron, host of the Televison Show "Ride Smart with Craig Camera, American Horsemanship"
Recommendation?
What about guys that have foot problems like swelling etc,? Can Boots be made for them also, Or will it be a problem sizing them etc.?
As long as the heels and soles don't fall off within a month like 99% of every boot, shoe, and sneaker on the planet . . . I'm a happy guy. Of course, paying the guy's mortgage payment for the month for a pair of boots is nuts too.
But I like this guy. If you're going to pay over $200 for a set of boots you may as well go all the way and INVEST in your boots. This is the first time I have ever seen where a boot could be made truly CUSTOM fit to each foot. THIS IS THE WAY TO GO . . .
Buzzards Bass invest in my boots? So you think they’re going to increase in value?
Boots made right should last years and half soled 2-4 times. The old bootmakers would replace the tops when they wore out. Ever wear a boot so long the top wore out? Prolly not.
Durango slouch boots in suede or distressed brown leather. Most comfortable boots I’ve ever worn.
I have 2 pair of Dan Post boots. and both pair fit EXACTLY the same. I can wear them all day without hurting my feet. they fit my feet perfect. Hesitant to try a different brand because I'm so impressed with the fit of Dan Post.
If you are having that kind of luck with them, stick with them. If you try something else you will definitely see & feel a difference. And it will probably be for the worse of things.
is the lasts still in the boot craig?
What’s the name of the show? I don’t think you said it enough.
My twisted X Boots gave lasted 3 years so far through water, snow, manure, and arena dirt. They may not look like they used to but they're still workers!
I got the Twisted X all around work boot. I effin love em! Most comfortable boot i ever had!
Chinese boots
And they're made in China. Cheap crap.
What’s this programme called any idea ?
The intro song made me feel like I was in the ending of an old western movie riding off into the sunset on a Clydesdale after I killed all the bandits
A clydesdale? You dont ride clydesdales, especially in westerns.
Dan post socks! Thats hard core!
You don't know nothin' about hardcore....Hardcore is barefoot with feet unwashed for the past 50 years.....
What are the low and high price range
Thx
how much do custom boots typically run?
Sir what is the starting price for boots???
What show is this?
olathe boot co of mercedes tx has been in bus for 100 years + so lots of people do to answer your question including me ! i cowboy on a 30,000 acre ranch and am mule and horse back with olathe boots !
Paul Shaw
Would that be Rios of Mercedes Boots ?
Or is it another company ?
Who was the guy in the burgundy shirt? Anybody catch that? Andy Griffin?
Can I wear these if I’m not a cowboy?
Good shit
what song is in the beginning
I love the great vidio on boot making
I have custom made boots and it's soooo worth it to have them made this way for you 👍
I only buy Stetson hats and real boots made for me there both so comfortable I hate to take them off
Stetson hats are garbage. Another factory made, overpriced hat. There's quite a few hat makers. I'll take my Texas Hatters cowboy hat. I hear there's a lot better made hats around here but I like my hat just fine.
Did he mention the lasts were inside the boot?
austin sosnowski kliukokj
I don't think so
No he didn’t
Wait...There are lasts inside the boots? I also couldn't tell who sponsored this video at all
2:40 making of boots starting point
Any suggestions on how to waterproof the soles of my leather boots 👢? Thanks!
Duct tape
The redfern cowboy likes what he saw.I'll be checking Mike out.
Where can I but them?
What is the price range?
Where's your shop ??
I love those cactus boots.
I bought a pair of boots for 100 bucks and they're holding up for a year and a half and j wear them and go really hard
How does he remember all of the measurements?
new drinking game, take a shot every time you hear "Ride smart with Craig Cameron American Horesemanship".
tvdave1 9 minutes in, I'm wasted.
tvdave1 two minutes I am derunked.
You trying to kill people lol
You might want to grab a wine bottle, your go clear to the bottom of a fifth on this video.. That is some crazy level of name dropping.. It's Bill Dance's fault.. lol. (Who just heard that theme song) ha - Cheers Ya'll
What kind of price ??
I have detailed files on bootmaking.
and a store bought boot can last ten years, so your saying a custom boot can last 100 years? sweet
How often do you wear those boots that last 10 years, once a month? I can barely get a year out of them
@@SamSwanner
Before I retired, I wore Justin, work boots, and they would last from 3 to 5 years, working 8 to 12 hours a day, sometimes 7 days a week.
@@SamSwanner he probaly uses lost of oils and random shit to keep em clean and weather proof and all that
Joe Boots. Locally made and great prices!
I have to go back to having my Boots Custom made again. Nobody sells Cowboy Boots with the Traditional Toes anymore. Everything is those Duck Bill Shovel toes.
Go to tecova boots, they make some good looking boots.
Theme music is the same from The Sons of Katie Elder.
I used to live in grand prairie
Plz help, how do I purchase the shoes from zimbabwe
I like the cactus boots
music provided by the Mormon Tabernacle orchestra.
wut
The best boots I have ever owned were Larry Mahans and now they don't make them anymore. I think they were made in Mexico and are probably still being made but under what brand I have no idea.
(Smothers Brothers) = "I see by your outfit that You are a cowboy", - "I see by Your outfit that You are a cowboy too", "We see by our outfits that we are both cowboys", - "If You buy an outfit You can be a cowboy too". Yup!
That's a great idea, so I'm going to go west and buy custom cowboy boots then go east and buy a southwester and then I will be a saltwater cowboy. Lol.
Is it worth buying a boot if you only have one leg?
Just to be sure are the boots custom made?
Cuadra are by far the best boots out there, the styles are amazing and the quality is the best.
If you ever travel to Mexico you can buy them for a lot less than you buy in the US.
