Tres Outlaws Boots Trunk Show

October, 2009

Scott Emerich, owner of Tres Outlaws Custom Boot Company in 
El Paso, Texas, arrived at Desperado boutique in the Old Mill to exhibit over 200 hand tooled, custom-made boots. The Tres Outlaws Boot Company houses the only master bootmakers in the world. These cowboy cobblers do some pretty amazing things within the limited leather backdrop they have to work with. A basic boot can take some 400 individual steps, from hand stitching to hand lasting to the exquisite inlay work.
