Charlie is a stud. Love this store. Very welcoming atmosphere very kind and helpful. My wife and I bought gorgeous vintage boots; great look better price. Were down in SoCo later that day and saw some of the ‘big’ stores, prices 5-10x. Do yourself a favor and go see Charlie
Thanks Tom for the kind words.

So glad I found this place! The owner Charlie was so chill and patient as I tried on a bunch of boots. He gave me a quick background on each one and was never pushy. I ended up finding THE perfect pair of vintage cordovan-colored Lucchese boots with the yummiest leather in amazing condition. Will definitely be back and highly recommend!
Thank you for the kind review I hope to see you again

This place is the best. Great boots at good prices. The guy who owns the shop is super helpful. I’d suggest calling before you come in unless it’s close to the middle of the stated hours since actual hours vary a little. I’ve called before though and he went back to the shop just to sell me some beautiful Ostrich skin boots for less than $100.
Thank you for the kind words.

Stumbled upon this awesome vintage store with a treasure trove of second-hand cowboy boots, belts, antiques, jackets, hats, and more. Charlie, the owner, is super chill and helpful, giving the place a great vibe. You'll definitely end up leaving with more stuff than you planned! Prices are totally fair, and I snagged a pair of cowboy boots that I'm obsessed with. Just a heads up, they only take cash, so hit the ATM before you go. And it's a good idea to give them a quick call beforehand to make sure Charlie's around. Happy Thrifting!
Thank you Cassidy for the kind words!

If you are in the market for some cool boots, you owe it to yourself to check out Brazos Trading before going to a store that sells new boots. A large inventory, very fair prices, and exotic leathers are likely to mean you get a better looking boot for less than half the money you’d spend at a shoe store. Reuse rocks.

Charlie is the man in town for boots and has been for three decades. I bought boots from him twenty years ago and just added another pair today. He’s a treasure.
Thank you Ņils for the kind words!
