Fort Worth, Texas — When it
comes to boots, Justin Boot
designer Eddie Kelly has seen it all.
She has made boots for Nolan
Ryan, Michael Jackson and lion
tamer Gunther Goebel-Williams.
She has tried every kind of stitching
pattern imaginable in every hue of
the rainbow, and made boots with
everything from frog hide [“they’re
' too small”] to codfish [“oooh, they
smelled bad”]. Eddie has seen the
“lacers,” which were popular when
she started with Justin in 1949,
make a big comeback. She has seen
boots with pointed toes give way to
round toes, and then pointed toes
come back into style.
Now, after 42 years at Justin, she
has hung up her stitching machine
to retire at the age of 65. “Leaving
here is the hardest thing I’ve ever
done,” she said softly. “None of my
family live here in Texas, so Justin
has been my family.”
Ironically, her four-decades-long
tenure in the boot business started
with some square-dancing friends
and a Justin Boot Company that
didn’t want to hire her. Friends at
Justin had invited Eddie to a
square-dancing club that met at the
boot-making plant. “They were such
nice people that I decided to work
there,” she recalls. “I wasn’t any
good at square dancing, but I hoped
I would be better at making boots.”
But the company wouldn’t hire
her. Because she had hopped around
between jobs, never working
anywhere longer than three
months, the company was worried
that the 23-year-old wouldn’t stay.
She was persistent enough to
finally get hired working the line,
and she became a supervisor just
three months later. In 1965, she
became Justin’s first full-time
designer and the rest is boot-making
history.
She has seen a lot of changes in
the business during those 42 years.
She has seen the Justin name flower
into the widely diversified Justin
Industries, encompassing Justin,
Tony Lama and Nocona boot
companies; Acme Brick Company;
Featherlite Building Products
another 49 never made it past her
sewing machine.
A true perfectionist, Eddie said
she would work a stitch over and
over until she was satisfied. “If I
don’t do something juuuuuust right,
I have to do it over,” she said.
Recently, her strong hands
turned over the designing reins at
Justin. She plans to travel
extensively, spend more time at her
hobby of making clothes, and
“throw away my alarm clock.” Still,
she said it’s painful to leave Justin
Boot Company.
“The people here have been so
good to me,” she said, gazing
wistfully off into the distance. “I
know it’s time to go, but it’s still
hard.”

and to find fresh ideas.
“The biggest challenge is to find
new exotics,” she explained. “Now-
adays, they’re either on the
endangered species list or getting
too small because they’re hunting
them younger and younger.” Some
of her experiments with new exotics
have included ocean bass, turkey ...
and the codfish.
She’s also experimented with a
multitude of different stitching
patterns and colors. The patterns
have ranged from a simple inlaid
bucking bronco, to the intricate boot
custom-made for pitching ace Nolan
Ryan, with an inlaid baseball
emblazoned with “300 wins” plus
the logos of the four teams for which
Ryan has blazed fastballs. “That
was really a neat-looking boot,” she
said with pride. Other creations
included the simple shoe-boot made
for singer Michael Jackson and the
elaborate elephant and tiger-head
boots made for circus animal trainer
Gunther Goebel-Williams.
