OUR STORY

IT'S JUNE 1875 IN OLATHE, KANSAS.

Shoemaker C.H. Hyer, son of William, first generation German-American, opens up shop for the day, unaware that in a matter of hours, he’s about to fundamentally alter the history of footwear forever.

1870's Kansas was Cowtown.

The link between the established cities of the East and the ever-developing frontier of the American West. And with that, came the arrivals and passing-throughs of a certain new class of American icon: the Cowboy.

The Cowboy Boot as we know it today was born. An Olathe, Kansas original, by the one and only C.H. Hyer.

As time went on, C.H. Hyer & Son’s Boot Company was bought and sold, and many boot brands came and went, using C.H. Hyer’s design as their template. And not much has changed since. Today, we’re reviving the spirit of C.H. Hyer, our founder’s great-great-grandfather. Not by bringing back the old, but by revolutionizing the boot world just as he did...

“ONE STEP AT A TIME”

–  C.H. Hyer
