The Fort Worth Stockyards is adding to its retail roster.
Pendleton Woolen Mills and Will Leather Goods have both committed to open their Texas flagships in the historic district.
Will Leather Goods, which has operated a pop-up location in the Stockyards since November 2024, is converting the space into a permanent store that is expected to open in June of this year.
“We couldn’t be more excited to be a part of the Fort Worth Stockyards, a place that champions our core values,” said William Adler, chief executive officer of Will Leather Goods, which offers handcrafted leather bags, accessories and lifestyle goods.
In addition, the 150-year-old Pendleton Woolen Mills will open its first Texas store in the district in May.
“We are confident that the Fort Worth Stockyards is the right place for our very first Texas location,” said Peggy Denfeld, director of retail leasing and finance for Pendleton Woolen Mills. “We are impressed by the district’s growth and vibrancy and look forward to being a part of its continued success.”
Fort Worth Stockyards is operated by Stockyards Heritage Development Co., a partnership between Majestic Realty Co. and Hickman Investments. The project’s first phase, Mule Alley, broke ground in the fall of 2018 and included the renovation of the destination’s historic, 108-year-old horse and mule barns into a street of shops, restaurants, offices spaces and one of the state’s top-ranked hotels, Hotel Drover. Among the retailers who call the area home are Boot Barn, Cavender’s, King Ranch Saddle Shop, Lucchese, Maverick Fine Western Wear and M.L. Leddy’s.
