The old saying “There’s nothing new under the sun” holds true in the evolution of footwear as in many styles of clothing. We at Running Iron Outfitters, have researched many styles of footwear from the 17th century to the present. In doing so we have found that many boot and shoe styles used in what became the United States of America, actually had their origins in European Countries. It goes without saying that materials and manufacturing methods have improved during the evolution of the boot and shoe industry. These factors have allowed us to develop footwear that not only wears better but is considerably more comfortable. We at Running Iron, offer footwear that will wear well and satisfy the image of your persona. If we do not have the type of boot you are looking for, perhaps we can make it especially for you from a photo, drawing or sample you send us.
