Mandujano Custom Leather Bootmakers, a Weslaco, Texas-based company, specializes in custom handmade and ready-to-wear western boots, leather shoes, and custom leather accessories. The business has a rich heritage spanning three generations, starting with Sir Olegario Mandujano Barajas. Mandujano Bootmakers takes pride in their craftsmanship, using high-quality raw materials and skilled labor to create unique, custom-made products. \n\nThe company's history includes its founding in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico, in the 1980s, facing challenges during the Mexican recession in the 1990s, and re-establishing the business in Weslaco, Texas, in 1995. Over the years, Mandujano Bootmakers has gained recognition, including features in Texas Monthly and interviews in local newspapers. The company emphasizes a blend of traditional techniques and modern machinery to enhance the bootmaking process. They offer a variety of custom options, including different toe styles, skin types, and shaft designs. The website also provides information on product care, boot anatomy, and fit guides to assist customers with their purchases. Lemonwood pegging is used, which expands and contracts when exposed to moisture almost at an identical rate as leather. This is the gold standard when making custom made boots.\n\n
