So did you buy some Tony Lamas? I have a pair that I bought in the late '70s, don't were them much anymore but their still in good shape, they have been resoled once.

Seems that as a new customer, before you buy, you get fitted. A cast (mold) of each foot is made and the boots fitted to them. They are kept on file - just call ahead for your next pair.....!!

Yep that's the way I got mine, I was in El Paso for a few days and stopped in, they did the foot cast thing and they shipped my boots several weeks later, I put them on and as they say they "fit like a glove". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
