Cody Courtney said the only logical thing to do after running a hat shop in Texas was to open a boot store—and that's exactly what he did.

In 2023, Courtney opened Gruene Boot Company in the historic district of New Braunfels.

The idea for Gruene Boot Company came after customers purchased hats at Gruene Hat Company .

“The natural question for them was, 'Where can I get a pair of boots?” Courtney said.

So, he decided purchase more space in the H. D. Gruene Mercantile building to start selling boots.

What they offer

Courtney said there are hundreds of boots to choose from for men, women and children.

“There’s about 10 total brands that we carry, but for the most part, they’re all pretty much traditional cowboy boots,” he said.
