History
Western Leather Craft was an Amarillo, Texas, family bench at 1950 Civic Circle, run by the Ross family, who had been making working and dress boots since 1914 across four generations by the time of a June 2002 Texas Monthly profile. The shop's specialties included work boots, art boots, wing tips, and flower inlays, priced from $575 with about a three-month turnaround.
No founder's given name was printed in that profile. The shop is a different Amarillo bootmaker from Beck Boots.
