Born in the heart of the West and proudly wearing its heritage in every stitch, Tecovas embodies the true spirit of the cowboy. This brand, now the fastest-growing Western brand in the world, is built on high-quality craftsmanship, exceptional hospitality, and genuine communication. Tecovas is not just for cowboys—it’s for everyone who wants a piece of the rugged, timeless allure of the West.
Launched in 2015 with a straightforward mission to create authentic western boots for the discerning consumer, Tecovas quickly captured the market and the hearts of boot lovers everywhere. Tecovas’ founder Paul Hedrick, born and bred in Texas, aimed to revitalize a stagnant Western industry. With Tecovas, Hedrick sought not only to craft exceptional footwear but to welcome new customers into a bold new vision of Western style and flair. Nearly a decade later, Hedrick’s passion remains palpable in every pair of boots that Tecovas sells.
The journey of a Tecovas boot begins in Austin, Texas where the design team conceptualizes and refines each product. By using painstakingly precise methods and premium supple leather, Tecovas boots boast serious quality that bats well above their price range. And once a pair of Tecovas boots arrives at your doorstep, they are ready to wear right out of the box. The broken-in design means your new boots should slip on comfortably so you can hit the ranch or the city streets in style.
