History

Fort Western is a family-owned, privately held company, established by Carl and Shirley Wohlfarth. The enterprise began with their children's love for horses. When the tack shop the Wohlfarths frequented for years closed, it ignited the idea for them to start their own shop. The first store opened as a one-room horse tack shop in Lincoln, NE. Carl and Shirley worked part-time in the store while working full time to support the family, Shirley as a nurse and Carl as a lieutenant in the Lincoln Fire Department. As the business grew, they added jeans and boots to their product offering. In 1987, Fort Western relocated its Lincoln store where the tack shop grew from a one-room display to the largest in the Midwest. In 1993, Fort Western added a second retail store in Nebraska City, NE. With 16,000 sq ft, the store is the second largest western-style outfitter in Nebraska.Today the Fort Western is one of the largest western wear outfitters in the Midwest.

Great selection of boots and hats. They even helped ship a hat in for free to let me try. I hope they recover quickly from the recent fire that I read about in the news. Support local businesses!

Placed an order and still had not received it three months later! There's no reason whatsoever that it should take over three months to ship an order. CAL Ranch is an awesome place to do business...
