It’s that time of year.

If you’re in Houston and surrounding counties in East Texas you know

what comes on the backside of Valentine’s and Marti Gras.

RODEO TIME

Three weeks worth of the best boot wearin, sawdust dancin,

mutton scramblin’, steer buyin’, hoof stompin, wrangler fittin,

in the world.

Houston hosts the world’s largest rodeo and it comes with

a multitude of events including trail rides, cook-offs, world-famous

talent, and of course world-class livestock.

Fun for a visit or 2 but really in these deep Texas parts

— the Cowboy Way–

is a way of life for many and a good reason

 we keep our Cowboy designs in check year round.

Turquoise for the essential cowboy collection.

And why wouldn’t you want to bring the cowboy way home after

all that croonin’– PS this will be George’s last time performing at the

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo with his Cowboy Rides Away Tour

which sold out in minutes.

The art, the sculptures, the SHOPPING!

But there’s many reason more to visit the HSLR.

More than 300 million dollars given in scholarship money to date—

You can see why the cowboy way is an

essential to so many of our young cowboys and cowgirls wanting

to pursue their education.

those funnel cakes!?

So if you need to get those boots dusted off

from too much wrangling last year

be sure to visit Ricca’s Boot Shop in Tomball. 

Ricca’s has been in business since 1975

and now operated by third generation craftsman,

Ryan Selman who can not only fix your boots up real nice

but who can make you a custom pair from your own design beginning to end.

Only be ready for a wait– Ryan is pretty darn good at what he does and is

back logged for a year at a time!
