LUCCHESE BOOTS ARE WHAT COWBOY BOOTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.

The inspiration from the vintage styles that Stapleton loved includes clean, classic styles with outstanding workmanship that are easy to wear daily. Choosing three different types of leather offered the chance to get more creative with the look and feel of each style.

“Suede for a more rugged look, hand-burnished calf to showcase the details of great craftsmanship, and finally, our signature brush-off for a dressier feel,” Hogue shares. Stapleton also selected the X1 toe, a classic toe with a chiseled nose.

“I’m of the mind that everything can be refined to an art,” says Stapleton, “and that’s what I love about Lucchese boots—they’ve taken bootmaking and refined it to an art.”

This collection is just the latest of many prestigious partnerships for Lucchese. Being around for 140 years, the brand has been the chosen cowboy boot of various celebrities and style icons. “In recent years, we’ve launched partnerships across several facets, from bespoke collaborations with model and designer Erin Wasson to hatmaker and milliner Nick Fouquet and other musical artists, like singer-songwriter Stephanie Quayle,” Hogue says.

“Each collection Lucchese launches differs from the rest, but they all are created with the same timehonored craftsmanship techniques that result in handmade boots of unrivaled quality, fit, comfort, and style.”

The Lucchese x Chris Stapleton collection also aims to do some good with each pair of the Old Friend, the San Antonio, and the Original sold. A portion of the profits benefits Chris and Morgane Stapleton’s charitable fund, Outlaw State of Kind. The nonprofit supports various causes, including natural disaster relief, fighting hunger, supporting veterans, and more. “We are thrilled to be part of this mission with a portion of each boot purchase going back to making an impact,” says Hogue.

Heading into its momentous anniversary, Lucchese aims to hold its stewardship as a maker of the best Western footwear in the marketplace with high-quality raw materials and old-world construction techniques.
