Ride em, Cowboy!!

If you need Western wear, you will NOT find a better selection that at Alcala's. My colleague and I needed western costumes for an event, and Frank Alcala worked with me at length to help me get exactly what I needed. He was patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend his store!!

  • Pros: Great selection, friendly staff.

Great Varied Selection

by Bearfan at Citysearch

Alcalas has a vast selection of boots and hats. They even stock larger sizes for men (14, 15, 16+). Their selection of belts and buckles is adequate. Their clothes tend to be a little bit dated for the current dancing crowd, but to each their own. If you're looking for boots in the Chicagoland area, stop into Alcalas.

  • Pros: Parking Lot, Boot Selection, Hat Selection
  • Cons: Dated Clothing, Neighborhood
