A shoe style from Beyoncé Knowles-Carter‘s “Cowboy Carter” tour is hitting the market, taking the leap from custom-made silhouette to limited-edition launch. Stuart Weitzman New York is releasing the gold Vinnie Cowboy 85 Boot — but only 50 pairs were created.

The boot style takes the sculptural Vinnie heel seen in the Stuart Weitzman Vinnie Sculptural Collection, which became the Caleres-owned brand’s bestselling collection of fall 2025, and marries it with a modern cowboy silhouette. Like Knowles-Carter’s pair, the Vinnie Cowboy 85 Boot is crafted from light gold crushed metallic leather.
The style was originally custom-made for Knowles-Carter, with the superstar debuting it on tour earlier in 2025. The “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer showcased a slew of designer boots and shoes along her “Cowboy Carter” tour, which took on a Western theme — helping to propel a surge of interest in Western boots for 2025.
Juliana Naso, vice president, global merchandising, Stuart Weitzman, said in a statement, “Everything we do at Stuart Weitzman New York is driven by customer insights, and so when we learned that our customer wanted her own Vinnie cowboy boot style, we aimed to deliver. And there’s no better time than now, during the holidays, for her to add something truly special to her wardrobe.”
The Vinnie Cowboy 85 Boot is available now exclusively on stuartweitzman.com.

Knowles-Carter has a longstanding relationship with Stuart Weitzman. She offered words of kindness to the designer when he received the Footwear News Lifetime Achievement Award more than a decade ago.
“From towering heels to intricately decorated crystal designs, I have always admired Stuart’s work and the comfort of his heels. When I first met Stuart, I saw his kindness, his warmth and his passion for the craft. His creations are a reflection of his genuine, beautiful personality,” Knowles-Carter said in a 2012 video celebrating the designer’s award.
She also said, “I always enjoy collaborating with Stuart on shoes for my performance. My performance can last more than two hours sometimes, so I need comfort as well as style. After countless tours and TV specials and concerts, I have literally danced a thousand miles in his beautiful shoes. From stage to red carpet to everyday wear, he has added comfort and style not only to my lifestyle, but to many women around the world.”
