Justin Work Boots

The first pair of boots crafted by H.J. Justin, designed for riding out on the range, laid the foundation for the iconic Justin Work Boots we know today. This rich history and heritage are woven into every pair of Justin boots, adding a sense of authenticity and trust to the product.

He wore the boots from 1879 to 1905, when he finally quit riding his herds of cattle.

After gaining popularity, his boots became quite creative in design as H.J. Justin began creating boots with more decorative stitching. We’re one of the first styles with rows of stitching across the boot tops to stiffen the leather.

He later started decorating his boots with more intricate details and stitching, hand-tooling more colorful leathers and threads, silver Conchos, and even unique illustrations into the boots.

Since then, Justin as a brand has paved the way for creative boot designs that are durable and highly functional, such as their Roper boots, which have become true icons.

Eventually, H.J Justin married and had a couple of sons to whom the business was passed, and now, more than 140 years later, Justin boots remain an icon within the Western Community,

Each work boot is skillfully crafted from the finest materials with intricate details and décor.

To this day, Justin boots feature an elegant Western style and hold their iconic name as a brand.
