Macie Bean Ladies Caiman-Black Square Toe Boots

Behind every good story is a woman who made it possible—and ours is no different. 

Born at the dawn of the 20th century, during a time when the roles of women were largely limited by the expectations set by society, Macie Bean was a product of her time and place. A respectable lady, devoted wife and loving mother, she embraced the sacred duties of making life easier for those she loved. However, the demands of the West Texas land she called home were anything but traditional. 

Fittingly named ‘Macie Bean,’ the brand was established in 2007 as a tribute to generations of women who are passionate about the western way of life. The brand is led by its namesake’s great-granddaughter, Jode Vaughan. Hailing from a lineage of ranchers that runs five-generations deep, Jode has an inherent appreciation for purposeful, elegant styles that last. She is proud to help carry on the legacy of strong women through her work as Chief of Design, and more importantly, as mother to her own three daughters.

The fifth brand established under the legendary Rios of Mercedes boot company, Macie Bean was built the right way on 150 years of tradition and uncompromised quality.

Today, more than a century later, we are capable of so much more than we ever imagined possible. And the tools we choose should be equally qualified for whatever trails we choose to blaze. Accordingly, Macie Bean is more than just a brand. It’s a reflection of a richness of heritage matched by innovative design. It’s an unwavering commitment to partnerships and products that serve a bigger purpose and make a lasting difference. Because boots aren’t just something we wear—they’re a tool that should fit and serve us well on our journey to new frontiers. And each day, they’re leaving meaningful tracks for others to follow as they write their own stories.
