More
about Justin Footwear: The Justin Boots story began in 1879,
when H.J. Justin left Lafayette, Indiana to start a new life
in Spanish Fort, Texas. Initially a boot repairman, H.J. soon
began his own boot company working out of his home. When a
railroad was built in Nocona, Texas in 1889, H.J. moved his
family and business there to capitalize on the bigger market
opportunity. In 1908, John and Earl came to work for their
father, and the company was renamed H.J. Justin and Sons.
In 1910, Justin boots were sold in 26 states, Canada, Mexico,
and Cuba for $11 a pair.
John,
Earl and Avis took over the business after their father's
death in 1918. In 1925, the brothers moved the company headquarters
to Fort Worth. In 1948, John Justin, Jr. purchased controlling
interest in the company. It wasn't long before H.J. Justin
& Sons was growing again. In 1968, the company made a
deal with Acme Brick, another Fort Worth company with pioneering
roots, to form Justin Industries.
Nocona
Boot Company became part of Justin Industries when John Jr.
purchased the controlling shares from his aunt, Enid Justin,
in 1981. Three years later, Chippewa Shoe Company was added
to the Justin family of brands. And in 1990, Justin Industries
purchased competitor Tony Lama Boots after years of intense
rivalry. In August of 2000, Justin Boots was purchased by
Berkshire Hathaway, managed by Warren Buffet. With strong
financial backing, a lasting tradition of quality, and a talented
management team, Justin Boots today is stronger than ever.
