Women's Henrietta Boot

A namesake that honors the heart of King Ranch herself, Henrietta King. Crafted from luxurious black calfskin, it blends timeless femininity with a bold Western spirit. Intricately inlaid tops nod to artisan tradition, while a removable cushioned insole offers all-day comfort—perfect for walking the grounds or leading the charge.

Founded in 1853, and each pair is still crafted in their original workshop in Mercedes, Texas. More than handmade, these boots are made by masters. Hand-cut leather inlays are stitched on vintage Singer machines, toe boxes are sculpted and sanded by hand, and hides are lasted and pegged with the precision of generations. It’s not just the process that makes them exceptional—it’s whose hands are making them. With all-leather construction and a fit that molds to the foot, Rios boots feel like gloves—snug yet supple, never slipping or sliding. It’s this dedication to detail that made them the ideal collaborator with King Ranch: two institutions shaped by the land, committed to their craft, and steeped in the stories of the American West.
