Someone described our style sensibility as "classically modern bootwear designed with a twist
on the well-worn, tried-and-true traditional western boot" and we'd say that's just right.

The bottom line is that delaCav is dedicated to upholding the handcrafted art of bootmaking while offering directional western-inspired style, providing customized personal service and giving you the freedom to build a pair of boots that express your individuality!

Soon enough, you’ll find our beautiful bootwear in retail stores so you can gratify your passion
and strut your stuff all over town ASAP, but until then, enjoy discovering our bootwear collection online and learn how you can customize a pair of boots... or check out the personalize page for shortcut options.

We look forward to hearing from you!

about delaCav

One year during my childhood in South Texas’ Rio Grande Valley,
I went with my father on his annual trip to have custom-fit boots made by one of the world-renowned Rios brothers.

It was a magical moment when I realized that every aspect of my dad's boots would be made by hand by beautiful artisans. Actually, it was utterly amazing to me that boots were made by hand at all for that matter—I had never associated people with this process!

Well, I have been captivated with the art of bootmaking ever since!

So... what started as a personal passion for all things related to the history, lore and making of cowboy boots has evolved into a boutique bootwear brand built on a reputation for authentic handcrafted quality, innovative style and personal service.

As I set to the task of officially launching the delaCav brand, I aim to offer our handcrafted line to individuals, as well as through retail & specialty stores worldwide.

This said, we are pleased to consult with you at any point in time—if you’re just thinking about buying or you’re ready to order—feel free to contact us just to talk, ask questions, get answers.

I’m very proud of what we have going on here and I look forward to developing long-term relationships with all—individuals and retailers alike.

Thank you so much for your interest...

Suerte,
Christine de la Garza
President & Creative Director
