El Vaquero

It all began in 1975 when our Head Designer, Valerio Giuntoli, traveled between Italy and the United States, developing the unique style that defines El Vaquero today. What he created was more than just a shoe — it was a revolution in the fashion world. Today, as then, El Vaquero stands for originality, craftsmanship, and expressive freedom.

Our boots have often been imitated but never matched. Each pair is handcrafted by skilled artisans using natural materials and special treatments that give every shoe an irreplaceable texture and color nuance. No two pairs are alike, and that’s exactly the point. Our footwear is made for those who want to stand out — models worn worldwide, feeling as if they were made just for you.

Care is at the heart of everything we do. Not only in how we craft our products but also in how we care for our customers. Our Customer Care team is fully dedicated to personal attention and service. We love adventure and exploration, but we believe you should always have a safe place to return to. El Vaquero is both your starting point and your home.

We believe in long-lasting fashion. Our shoes are still made today as they were in 1975: with passion, experience, and a commitment to absolute quality. They retain their shape, shine, and comfort — step after step, year after year. For us, sustainability lies in the longevity of a product. An El Vaquero shoe doesn’t need replacing or repairing. Great craftsmanship is the ultimate form of sustainability.

For over thirty years, El Vaquero has ridden a wave of international success. Our bold, original, and sometimes boundary-pushing designs continue to surprise. We take pride in our unconventional approach, thanks to the vision of Valerio Giuntoli — one of haute couture’s most talented designers, who transformed a simple intuition into a globally worn style.
