Tourists go on whiskey tours in Scotland, bootmaker Lee Miller tells me, so why not take a custom bootmaker tour in America? Could get a little pricey, I think. A $50 bottle of Scotch is one thing, but a $4,000 pair of boots is not out of the realm of possibilities. Yet, I like the idea. J.B. Stetson made his hats back East, but custom boots are Western, have been since cowtown bootmakers put their souls into their soles. These boots are made for driving, so I’m taking the Bootmaker Trail.
