Sisters Lizzie Means Duplantis and Sarah Means founded Miron Crosby in Dallas after living in New York City, where they wore, and were frequently asked about, cowboy boots of their own design. Lizzie, who was pursuing a career in finance, and Sarah, working in the fashion industry, took note of the interest and saw a gap in the footwear category—no one was making authentic cowboy boots with a focus on fashion.
After returning to Texas, they launched Miron Crosby in 2017, which is a play on their great-grandfather’s name and a reference to a beloved Manhattan street that shares the same name as a pasture on their family’s ranch. Passionate about craftsmanship and committed to storytelling, authenticity, and style, the duo finds inspiration for many of their collections from growing up on the family’s fifth-generation cattle ranch outside Marfa, Texas. In addition to ready-to-wear pairs, a design-your-own boots option is available.
