Boots with soul.
A family with a plan.
Designed in Dallas, Texas. Handmade in León, Mexico.
Texas Western Culture Built to Last
Hi, We're George & Chelsey,
We're the husband-and-wife team behind Alvies now. Neither of us had ever been much of a boot person, but we both loved our Texas roots and wanted to honor them by finding the right pair. Our search sparked a desire to work alongside skilled artisans, help preserve the art of bootmaking, and share it with others. Alvies felt right with its signature blue heel stripe, quality craftsmanship, and ability to feel at home in a modern closet—even alongside flip-flops! We’re driven by a commitment to honor our heritage, keep Texas Western culture alive, and make it relevant for today. So in 2025, we did what any reasonable couple would do: we acquired the business.
Today, Alvies calls Dallas home, and every pair is still handmade by skilled artisans in León, Mexico. Our promise is simple: preserve the quality, character, and craftsmanship you already love while expanding the Alvies world with more collaborations, styles, and products designed to bring that same spirit into more parts of your everyday life. We’re excited to build on what makes Alvies special while creating new products and designs for you to experience.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN, NO STRANGERS IN AIRSTREAMS
Alvies was born in Austin more than a decade ago, selling boots and flip-flops out of a vintage Airstream to anybody who wandered by. The trailer's retired. The attitude isn't.
DÓNDE ESTÁ EL BOOTMAKING CAPITAL OF THE WORLD?
León, Mexico. That's where every pair of Alvies is still cut, stitched and pulled by hand, by artisans who've been actively in the art and have been taught by generations.
It's also why Alvies feels good on day one instead of day forty. Suffering for fashion is overrated and outdated.
EVERYONE BELONGS IN ALVIES
Cowboys. City girls. Accountants. Surfers. Ballerinas. Longhorns. Even Aggies. People with two left feet. Librarians. Wanderers. Weirdos. And dreamers.
Whoever you are on the inside, you're gonna look great with Alvies on the outside.
