Our Journey began in 2000

When Ernie Tarut and Yan Ferry decided to join forces pairing Ernie's leather manufacturing experience and
Yan's mastery of European design and boot making.

With this duo's skillset, Old Gringo has grown over the years to become a brand known for it's distinctive
handmade leather boots that combine elements from more fashion forward designs
while also staying true to the roots of western style.


We believe in
Art, Quality and Innovation

At Old Gringo, there is a passion for our product, for fashion and for always being one step ahead of the rest.
We see beyond traditional style and work tirelessly to develop handcrafted pieces that combine classic western charm with contemporary edge.

Each handmade piece is its own experience, with a unique personality that is sure to inspire and spark conversation among friends and strangers alike.



Every Pair Handmade

Every step of our 225 steps process is meticulously mastered. We select high quality leathers to best match the wear & style of each design showcasing the skin's texture, color and finishes.

  " It is and always will be about making the right pair of boots. You know those boots you always turn to and never want to take off "
