Where to Find Cheap Western Wear
Western wear is a classic American style, but authentic cowboy boots, hats, and other items can get pricey. However, with some smart shopping strategies, you can find high-quality western clothing, accessories, and footwear at very affordable prices.
Where To Find Cheap Western Wear
Here's a guide on where to look for cheap western wear.
Online Retailers
Many major online stores have extensive selections of discounted western apparel:
Sheplers offers over 6,000 styles of discounted cowboy boots plus a large clearance section with heavily discounted shirts, jeans, hats, belts and more. They frequently run promotions like BOGO 50% off clearance.
NRS (National Roper's Supply) is a trusted source for affordable cowboy and cowgirl boots from various brands.
Amazon has a wide selection of men's cowboy boots at clearance prices, often with additional discounts applied at checkout.
Sites like eBay and AliExpress also sell cheap western clothing, boots, hats and accessories, sometimes with fast shipping.
Brick-and-Mortar Stores
Don't forget to check out sales and clearance racks at physical retailers:
Boot Barn, Cavender's, Lebo's and other western wear chains have clearance sections organized by men's, women's, and kids' items. Shop end-of-season sales for the best deals.
Department stores like Kohl's, Macy's and JCPenney sometimes carry western styles, especially in their sale/clearance areas.
Discount retailers such as Walmart and Target often stock basic western-inspired pieces like jeans, shirts and jackets at budget-friendly regular prices.
Thrift Stores and Flea Markets
One of the best ways to score authentic western wear for cheap is to buy it secondhand:
Thrift stores and consignment shops frequently have gently-used cowboy boots, hats, belts, and denim items for a fraction of the original price. Check frequently, as inventory changes often.
Local flea markets, swap meets and farmers markets sometimes have vendors selling unique or handmade western items at bargain prices. You never know what you might find!
Tips for Scoring Deals on Western Wear
A few other ideas for finding cheap western wear:
Sign up for email newsletters from your favorite brands to get alerts about sales, clearance events, and promo codes.
Follow retailers' social media accounts for news about flash sales and follower-exclusive deals.
Shop off-season. Look for the best prices on western wear in the winter and early spring when retailers are clearing out old inventory.
Consider buying used cowboy boots and reselling them yourself if they don't fit. Vintage boots in good condition sometimes resell for more than you pay!
With so many options for finding cheap western wear both online and in-person, you can build an authentic western wardrobe without busting your budget. The key is knowing where and when to look for the best deals. By shopping strategically and taking advantage of sales, discounts, and secondhand sources, you can lasso plenty of affordable finds to perfect your cowboy or cowgirl style.
