Boot Barn to Open New Store in Harvey, Expanding Its Louisiana Presence
Western wear retailer Boot Barn is saddling up for its next big move — this time to the New Orleans area. The company announced plans to open a brand-new 20,000-square-foot location this June at 1600 Westbank Expressway in Harvey, bringing its signature blend of western style and rugged workwear to more Louisiana shoppers.
Founded in 1978, Boot Barn began as a go-to destination for classic western essentials like cowboy hats, boots, and belt buckles. Over the years, it has evolved into a much broader retailer, offering everything from outdoor and work apparel to women’s fashion, accessories, and rustic home decor. Despite that expansion, the brand has stayed true to its roots, maintaining its identity as a hub for those who live and work in western and rural communities.
With more than 460 stores nationwide and 56 new openings last year alone, Boot Barn has grown into the largest western and work wear retailer in the country. The Harvey store will mark its ninth location in Louisiana, joining existing stores in Alexandria, Baton Rouge, Houma, Lafayette, Lake Charles, Monroe, Shreveport, and Slidell.
For shoppers in the greater New Orleans area, the arrival of Boot Barn brings a new option for durable, stylish gear that blends function and flair — just in time for summer.
