The Cotton Patch opened its doors in August of 1985, and our focus across these many years has never wavered – we aim to provide our valued customers with the best advice, fashionable clothing, attention, and personal touches that they deserve and have come to expect. We like to say that we’ve “earned our stripes” not only because of our longevity in the marketplace, but because we’ve always been able to tailor our merchandise and customers to one another. We’ve listened to you, our customers, and you’ve kept us on track with what you like, don’t like and how we can serve you better. Many of you are like family to us, and we hope that these wonderful relationships that we’ve built together will continue for years!
