Brand New--YY Brand Boots
Pinto Ranch in Houston, Texas; Dallas, Texas; Las Vegas, Nevada
(713) 333-7900; (214) 217-6200; (702) 228-3400

Pinto Ranch is thrilled to announce it's releasing its own private-label, handmade leather boots! The store's YY Brand boots are debuting at its Houston location this week. Walter Pye, owner of Pinto Ranch, wants to offer customers a wider, greater selection of boots:
"The number of handmade boot manufacturers has dwindled during recent years, and we wanted to offer customers something they can't find anywhere else. We see this as the next evolution of handmade boots."
Pinto Ranch will still carry other quality boot brands, but the YY Brand will distinguish the store from other boot retailers.
To get your hands on--and your feet into--a pair of YY Brand boots, check out the trunk show at Pinto Ranch's Houston location on January 28, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
