Iconic Texas store loved by Drake abruptly shutters after two decades
Pinto Ranch, a popular Texas retailer carrying stylish cowboy hats and boots, has abruptly closed three locations after 20 years.
The upscale western wear shop put a sign on the door of its Houston location sometime last week which reads: 'This store is closed until further notice.'
Pinto Ranch, which has been frequented by rapper Drake and singer-actress Letoya Luckett, also has a locations in Dallas and Houston's George Bush Airport, both of which are also closed, ABC13 reported.
Even stranger, the Houston location on Post Oak Blvd is still fully stocked, the racks brimming with clothes and the mannequins still decked out.
Pinto Ranch owner Guido Caranti wasn't very clear about his plans for the business, waffling on whether he'd be permanently shuttering it.

'We're looking at that,' he said. 'It is not the time to talk about this with journalists.'
The out-of-nowhere closure comes after the company announced a 25 percent off sitewide sale on June 7.
Customers who recently bought clothes have left comments on the store's Instagram complaining about cancelled orders, none of which Pinto Ranch's account responded to.
'I'm trying to do an exchange for some cowboy boots because they are too small, and no response after multiple attempts,' one person wrote.
'Calling and emailing has been ineffective.'
Pinto Ranch's website is still active and makes it appear as though the retailer is still open for business.
Nowhere on the site does it mention the closure of the three locations. But if a customer tries to place an order, there's a popup that reads: 'This store can't accept payments right now.'
A number of people showed up to the Houston location on Monday, only to be met with locked door and dark inside. They told ABC13 that there's no store quite like Pinto Ranch and said they were holding out hope that this wasn't the end for it.
The flagship Houston store opened back in February 2004, and three years later, Dallas got its own location.
For over 20 years, Pinto Ranch has been selling western clothes including hats and handmade cowboy boots for men and women.
Drake boosted the store's visibility last year with a surprise December visit where he tried on a brown jacket with no shortage of tassels.

Pinto Ranch appears to be yet another casualty in the almost 2,600 store closures so far in 2024.
In recent weeks, Walmart has closed three more of its underperforming locations, while Rite Aid is letting go of another 27 pharmacies.
Dollar stores appear to be the hardest hit of all, with 99 Cents Only announcing in April it would shutter all 371 of its locations across California, Texas, Arizona and Nevada.
Similarly, 1,000 Family Dollars and Dollar Trees will permanently shut over the next few years.
