Tecovas Reviews

Wow! The most comfortable and best-looking boots I’ve ever owned. These lizards are “dress” boots for me. A movie star or professional athlete would love these boots; probably not as much as me. Enough of that.

These boots serve a purpose and it ain’t running a chainsaw or taking the ATV to the Quachita National Forest to kick around. My Ariat or Justin bullhide crepe sole boots will take a beating (and I mean kicking logs around in the fire kinda beating).

I spend a lot more time indoors with my Tecovas Nash boots on than outside with work boots. I love ‘em both.

Bottom line is my Tecovas boots are the only footwear I don’t let my teenage sons touch. I keep shoe trees in them and polish ‘em with Bick 4 every time I put them up. I never wear them two days I’m a row. But those two or three times a week I put them on, I get compliments on them everywhere I go. And I live in Texas.

I bought my wife a pair of Tecovas short women’s boots. I believe they’re called the “Jessie.” Very nice. All leather. Good looking and (as we say in Texan) “hell for stout.”

As an aside, the initial pair I ordered too small. Tecovas made the exchange PAINLESS. Very easy. New boots I ordered a tad bit large and put an insert inside. I do this with all shoes.

Forgive me for getting long-winded. I love premium footwear and love these boots.

I never owned a pair of "western boots" prior to this experience. I have had a pair or two of Frye boots but, I don't consider them "western."

Lesson 1 - I learned that there are companies that live up to their "hype." Tecovas certainly did. Speedy delivery (three days).

Lesson 2 - quality. I have an old friend that rode the Rodeo circuit. He saw these boots and was overwhelmed with the quality and looks.

Lesson 3 - comfort. Wow, they fit perfectly. Many would say like a glove, I say perfectly.

Lesson 4 - I suggest when you first try on a new boot you should have on a thin pair of socks. This allows the foot to enter boot a bit more smoothly and certainly easier. Since I have a touch of arthritis, I purchased a pair of boot pulls on Amazon. ZIPPO not a singular problem thereafter.

Next boot purchase? Tecovas. You can't go wrong.

Closing lesson - I will be an ongoing Tecovas shopper. By the way, I neglected to state that my purchase was the "Shane."

I finally go around to ordering a pair of Tecovas. I've been wanting a pair for well over a year now, and my birthday was the perfect opportunity to take the plunge. I'm glad I did!

When it comes to apparel, many companies post pictures that make their products look way better online or in a catalog than how they actually look in person. When my boots arrived, I was shocked to notice that these looked just as good in person as they do online (even better, perhaps). The quality of construction and attention to detail is top notch. I don't care if they are made in Mexico. It's obvious that the folks making Tecovas boots know what they are doing, and Leon, Mexico has a very rich tradition in fine leatherworks.

My main concern with ordering these boots was the fit. Fortunately, Tecovas makes it very easy to exchange them for a different size, if needed. A postage-paid return address envelope is included in the box. Just make sure to ship them back in "new" condition (meaning no scuffs on the soles), and Tecovas will gladly swap them out for a new size of your choosing. You don't pay anything extra. For me, I got lucky, and my boots fit perfectly right out of the box.

One of the details that stands out with these boots is the use of bovine leather throughout the entire interior of the boot. Most other boots use nice leather lining in the shaft, and part of the way through the vamp, but then transition to either cloth or an inferior leather as it gets towards the toe. The inclusion of high-quality leather lining throughout the entire interior sets these boots apart, and really adds to the overall comfort of the boots.

After wearing these a few times, they are already starting to break in nicely. I can tell these are going to wear well - even though they are so soft. The calfskin leather is very high quality - I've never felt such a soft leather before. Lastly, the smell of these boots is amazing. They have such a deep, rich leather smell, even having been out of the box for a few days, the smell is still very strong. I love it!

I will definitely look to Tecovas again if and when I decide to order another pair of boots. You really can't beat the quality they offer at the price-point. I've tried on other brands that are twice the cost, and didn't seem as well-made as these. Great boots all-around; I cannot recommend them enough.

I'm 64 and have six pairs of Lucchese boots that are 35-40 years old when Lucchese was hand-made in San Antonio, Texas. Being that my Lucchese boots are so old (but still beautiful) and have been resold numerous times, I got interested in researching Tecovas after seeing today's prices on Lucchese. I now have two beautiful pairs of Tecovas. The Wyatt full-quill Ostrich in pecan and The Dillon Caiman in chocolate.

I was at a local western wear store and saw a pair of Caiman cowboy boots on display after I bought my Tecovas. My first thought after looking at them closely was that I did not know Tecovas was selling retail. I asked the salesman about them, and he explained that they were Lucchese Caiman and selling at twice the price of Tecovas. I was shocked but happy that I could not see any difference. I have only had my Tecovas two months and will not claim that they will last me 35-40 years, but only because I doubt I'll live to 100. My next pair will be the Nolan in bourbon lizard.

I have worn Lucchese boots for many years. I decided to try Tecovas because of the price and the appearance of quality, as shown on their website. When I got the boots I was very pleased with the craftsmanship and the quality. They were easily comparable to the Lucchese's. I decided to exchange the boots for another pair and called customer service. They could not have been more helpful. The customer service efficiency and the quality of the boots make me highly recommend Tecovas.

As a Texan, boots have always been a part of my footwear. 30 years ago I bought a pair of Lucchese ropers which I still wear after being resoled a couple of times. During that time I've tried other brands with recurrent dissatisfaction returning always to Lucchese's, now owning three pairs of ropers.

I saw the Tecovas' claims and decided to give them a try. I ordered a pair of full quill ostrich ropers (the Duke), which came this morning. The construction and material seem to be on a par with more expensive brands. I wore them all day today and found them comfortable and good looking. This is the first pair of boots that have felt so good day one during break-in since my Lucchese's.

The Tecovas price was about half of the Lucchese full quill ostrich roper. If they prove to be as durable, they are a tremendous bargain. Looks like I'll be adding another pair or two of Tecovas to my boot collection in a couple of months if these hold up as well as I expect. It's a no-brainer.

So I have heard great reviews of Tecovas cowboy boots online as well as YouTube. Now that I have received my very first Tecovas boots, I can give you a very honest review.

At first, I was doubting how it was going to fit as I have had a few that I bought from other stores and never had a good experience with western boots and how they fit. They were very uncomfortable in my experience. Then I found out about Tecovas, and I followed their online sizing guide. After all, I can ship it free if I needed to change the size of it doesn't work out.

Well, I just opened my boots out of the box that came today (btw, shipping was fast). I fitted the boots and oh boy...the fit was so comfortable as I slipped my feet in it. Then, once in it, the boots hugged my feet so nicely. I have to say that this the first ever that I wore a pair of western boots that fit so great. What a feeling walking in these boots. I am only getting boots from Tecovas! Thanks and excellent job Tecovas!

I have been looking at Lizard skin boots for some time now. I conducted a computer search and found the Tecovas website. I liked what I saw and placed the order. Two days later the boots were on my porch.

I am a peace officer and am on my feet for long periods. The boots fit like a glove and with a little more wear will be perfect. I will be ordering the chocolate brown and brown/tan as time goes on. Great boots, keep up the good work. I highly recommend this company. Did I mention the great price?

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Really great boots made with the softest leather. I have two pairs of calfskin and bought my wife ostrich. I get compliments every day I wear them. I have worn each pair twice a week for a year and have no signs of destruction past normal wear.

I think negative reviews come from folks who don't understand how the internet works and folks who don't know how to care for their boots. You don't wear them in the rain, you must condition, and you must dress the edge. If you want to work get some steel toe, rubber sole Ariats or Twisted X boots.

Having worn boots for most of my life as an adult my boots are generally custom made by a well-known boot maker. They range in price from $3,500.00 to $4,800.00 and I love them!

I was cautious at first with the purchase, I have received both pairs and I am very impressed. Very comfortable and the fit and quality is impressive, for a few hundred dollars. All I can say is these are going to be my go-to for knocking around the ranch.

Very Happy Customer!

Just got my Cartwright’s and they fit perfectly, and so comfortable! I immediately ordered a pair of Earls. Can’t wait! Ordered them on a Monday night and got them Thursday afternoon...free shipping!
