I don't get to wear boots to work as often as I'd like, but today I am wearing my vintage El Dorados (not the Ariat Eldorado boots, but "El Dorado Handmade Boots") in black. I am lucky enough to have these boots in tan (orange), black cherry, and black, plus another pair of plain El Dorado dress boots. It is my understanding the company went out of business about 20 years ago (yet there seems to be someone currently using the same name - so maybe they are back?). These are some of the finest boots I own - very soft leather and fit like a sock. If anyone knows more about the company I love to hear form you.

No, they still making boots. I had a pair of brown dress boots, but it wasn't good on my legs so I returned it and got luccase instead.
It is still. Really nice boots!

Good to know - all I could find were posts indicating they had gone out of business back in the '90s.

I have several pair but the pair I wear regularly are Tony Lama's (now 6 years old). I just bought a new pair and again went with Tony Lama's. There are a lot of different heal/toe combinations so look around and try on lots of different styles.
I have a pair of tony llamas that's been resoled four times.they still look and wear great.I am a native Texan so,i've worn boots all my life.I have some Justin s too.you know they're both owned by the same company.

YEP , TL was the last to go , as far as I know . They made better Boots before , but I guess that's progress . You might have a pair of pre-buy out Boots . Justin bought up about all the big competitors , at that time anyway .
