Annie Oakley's Western Wear storefront and sign

Annie Oakley’s Western Wear is a locally owned western wear boutique in Wellington, Kansas, owned by Victoria and Thom Merrill. The store first opened its doors on October 5, 2024, in downtown Wellington.

Victoria was inspired to open Annie Oakley’s because she wanted to bring something different to the community—a local place where people could shop for western clothing, boots, hats, accessories, and more without having to travel outside of Wellington. What started as an idea to fill a need in the community grew into a store where customers can find western styles for everyday life.

After outgrowing its original downtown space, Annie Oakley’s moved to its current location. In June 2026, the new store suffered significant damage from flooding, forcing Victoria and Thom to temporarily close while they worked to recover and rebuild. After several months of hard work, Annie Oakley’s was able to reopen its doors on September 12, 2026.

Today, Victoria and Thom are happy to welcome customers back and continue building the store they envisioned from the beginning. Inventory is always changing, with western clothing and accessories for both men and women and new items to discover throughout the store.
