My boyfriend and I went into The Fort this evening and had THE BEST experience! Gabe did an AMAZING job helping me pick out a birthday outfit and my boyfriend a new pair of boots! Shout out to Gabe for the best service we have received in a long time!!

Outstanding experience here. I bought the first pair of boots in my life, and the girl helping me was just terrific and patient. Great store, great service, and great selection. I wound up getting a new hat and shirt as well.

I had an amazing experience on July 10th, 2024. I went in around 5:30 p.m., looking for my 1st pair of boots. The sales associate Bob was so helpful and kinda that within an hour, I was able to find a pair of Ariat boots and a pair of jeans. Thank you, Bob, for your knowledge of your items and your patience with me.

Iv'e had to come here a few different times to buy work boots. My first time in I had no idea how the sizing worked on boots or how to properly shop. The staff went above and beyond to help me select the perfect pair.

Big & tall at The Fort - Columbus

Reviews and the store's own info mention men's big & tall at The Fort - Columbus — extended sizes, longer inseams and sleeve lengths, or a dedicated big & tall selection rather than a single rack. If you need specific sizes (tall lengths, extended necks, wide-width shoes), a quick call ahead saves the trip: stock in the far ends of the size run moves fast, and many stores can order your size even when it's not on the floor that day.
