Paris Texas El Dorado Boots: The Tall Western Boot, Every Version Explained
Paris Texas El Dorado Boots: The Tall Western Boot, Every Version Explained
The El Dorado is the tall Paris Texas cowboy boot: a pointed Western toe, a stitched shaft that reaches just under the knee and a 100 mm leather heel. It comes plain, embroidered and with a metal toe cap, in suede and in calf. Luxury Handbags carries 12 El Dorado styles at $1,680 to $2,310, including the new black brushed leather pair with a silver toe cap. This guide covers the three versions, the shaft, the fit and the pairs to buy.
Key facts
- One heel: a 100 mm stacked Western heel covered in leather.
- The shaft on the new black leather pair measures 40 cm high with a 39 cm circumference, per the brand.
- Three versions: plain, embroidered, and embellished toe with a metal toe cap.
- Prices at Luxury Shoes : $1,680 to $2,310; suede pairs start lower than calf leather.
- Made in Italy, true to size, sold with a dust bag.
What makes an El Dorado
Put the El Dorado next to the Dallas and you see the same family: the Western toe, the stitched shaft, the leather heel. The difference is height. The Dallas stops at the ankle bone, the El Dorado runs up the calf to sit just under the knee, so it does the work of a riding boot and a cowboy boot at once. The 100 mm heel is stacked and angled, which feels lower than the number suggests because the weight sits over the arch.
Plain, embroidered and embellished toe
The plain El Dorado in suede is the quiet one, and the black suede pair is the easiest to wear. The embroidered version adds tone-on-tone Western stitching to the shaft. The embellished toe adds a metal cap over the point, and in black brushed calf it is the sharpest boot in the range this season.

How to wear it
Because the shaft is tall, the El Dorado wants one of two hems: a maxi skirt that covers it fully, a knee-length dress that stops above it. Straight jeans tucked in work with the suede pairs; the leather pairs look best with a short hem and bare knees. Keep the top half simple: a white shirt and a leather jacket.
Fit and care
Paris Texas describes every style here as true to size, in European sizes, and Luxury Handbags stocks EU 35 to 42. The brand’s model is 175 cm tall and wears an EU 38. Measure your calf before ordering: the brand gives 39 cm around the shaft on the new leather pair. Suede wants a protector spray before the first wear; calf wants a dry cloth and shoe trees. Read the shaft and calf guide for every boot.
