Boots
Published by customboots
I'm a custom cowboy boot maker. I own a business, Sorrell Custom Boots, and I create bespoke cowboy boots using vintage machinery and hand tools. I also own www.sorrellnotionsandfindings.com, a company that specializes in tools, supplies, and leather for the boot and shoe making trade. View all posts by customboots
I want to thank you for your talent. I saw your story on CREATE TV. I would like for you to make me a pair of boots. Again, thank you.

I’ve been wearing cowboy boots for most of my 60 years and I’ve got to say you make some of the most beautiful boots that I’ve ever seen. I must have missed the Craft in America segment that featured you, but I did see a snippet of it and was impressed.
From one artist to another “Keep up the Good Work!”

Lisa, you are a true artisan and gifted cordwaner. Nice to see your daughter has innate talent for crafting boots like her mother. Beautiful and exquisite boots!! I’m in Texas. How do I go about ordering a pair of custom boots? You and yours stay healthy, blessed and safe. Just watched you on Texas Country Reporter.

Elsa,
Thank you so much!
That program was filmed a few years ago. We lost our beautiful shoemaking daughter in 2017, and I don’t accept too many new clients anymore. My website is http://www.sorrell.design if you’d like to take a look at it and see if ordering from me is right for you. I’m also happy to recommend other boot makers! I have lots of boot maker friends who make awesome boots, so message me if you’d like some recommendations.

Mary,
I rarely ever accept boot order anymore; I mostly recommend other boot makers. I would suggest Bo Lockhart (405) 590-9897

Hello Lisa,
I just came across this and I am obsessed with your attention to detail and the talent you have! Mind blowing! I know you don’t take orders anymore but do you have any to sell? I’m a 9, 91/2 to a 10 depending on the boot. I absolutely in love with your boots!
If I could I would wear cowboy boots every day! Please let me know. Thank you!

Actually, I do have this pair. They were made for a client who told me everything she wanted and then ghosted me after they were completed. They’re entitled “Rainbow Stew.”
