About Us

Cradled by the majestic Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, the year was 1975 and a family had a vision. For three generations, Stages West kept to that vision of family, commitment, faith, home and country for nearly 44 years. Like any family, over four decades of passionate dedication has resulted in changes and growth. In 2022, the Houser family made a decision to step away from the business. To ensure that the Stages West legacy would endure, the family chose Ariat to carry on their vision, a decision based on our shared values and the strength of the Ariat brand in their store and local market.

Times may change, but our integrity to our customers never will. Today, Stages West is lead with the same dedication, passion, and perseverance that you’ve always known.
