The La Guajira peninsula is home to Columbia's largest indigenous group, the Wayuu. it is a desert where survival is becoming increasingly difficult due to the harsh climate. "La mochila Wayuu" is crafted by the Wayuu women, providing their primary source of income. The weaving process is taught throughout generations. Every unique pattern represents an aspect of the culture and nature that is so vibrant in La Guajira. It is so much more than a bag; it represents the strength and resiliency of the Wayuu people.

How to order the right size cowboy boot:
- When in doubt, go with your current shoe size. Most cowboy boots run true to size and because of the high quality leather, boots need to be worn in.
- If you fall between two sizes, order the larger size because you can always wear thicker boot socks for a better fit and feel.
- Know your shoe width, which is usually similar to your current shoe width. A= narrow B=Medium/Average C=Wide
Boot Dilemmas:
-
I have athletic calves: Boots with a shaft of 12" or smaller would be the best bet for the perfect boot.
-
I have one foot bigger than the other: Consider purchasing boots that match your larger foot size and wear a thicker sock and insole in the boot of your smaller foot
-
I am flat footed: Boots with a shorter heel and rounded or square toe would be your best bet.
-
My foot has a high arch: Boots with a zipper entry are easier to put on and allow for you to insert a needed insole.
Over time, the leather will mold to your foot and be the boots you never want to take off!
