The Company Description of Its Time
Boot Barn Holdings, Inc., a lifestyle retail chain company, operates specialty retail stores in the United States. Its stores offer western and work-related footwear, apparel and accessories - the historical profile's summary, and a precise statement of a two-customer business: the western customer and the work customer, served out of the same store. The company's products include boots, denim, western shirts, cowboy hats, belts and belt buckles, and western-style jewelry and accessories; and rugged footwear, outerwear, overalls, denims and shirts, as well as safety-toe boots, and flame-resistant and high-visibility clothing. Few directory filings state a dual brief that cleanly, and it explains everything else in the record, from the store experience the company protects to the trivia it ends with.
Names, Store Counts and a Stock Symbol Story
The company was formerly known as WW Top Investment Corporation and changed its name to Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. in June 2014. As of May 7, 2015, it operated 172 stores. The company also sells its products through bootbarn.com, an e-commerce website. Those three dated facts - the former corporate name, the 2014 renaming, the May 2015 store count - are the filing's hard record, and this page keeps them attached to their dates alongside the narrative's 'over 150 stores in 24 states', which the same profile gives as the growth story's round figure.
The trivia the original ends with is preserved because it is the sort of cross-reference a names directory exists to keep: in 2015 the stock market symbol for this company is BOOT - and previously the stock symbol BOOT belonged to LaCrosse Footwear, before they were removed from being a public listing. LaCrosse has its own filing elsewhere in this names directory, and the symbol's migration from a work-boot maker of an earlier era to the western-and-work chain is a small, exact piece of industry history that would be lost if either profile were trimmed to a summary.
