Free Tequila While You Shop At The New Western Store In Tampa Mall

Online shopping has pretty much taken over the world over the last few years. But, if you still like to try things on and see them in person, you’re in in luck. Whether you’re gearing up for your next concert or need to dress up for an event, the new Tecovas store in Tampa International Mall has everything you need.

Tecovas started out as a one-man show in the back of an SUV in 2015. Paul Hedrick set out to create a pair of boots that honored traditional methods but with a modern twist.  From what started as a boot brand in Austin, Texas has become a full-on manufacturer and retailer for all sorts of western wear. 

Tecovas said, “We aren’t chasing Western nostalgia and cliches. Instead, everything we do is meant to honor the true spirit of the West - that magical place that’s inside everyone, the voice that tells us that life is short and that we better pull on our boots and go hard after the things that we love and care about.”

They are a direct-to-consumer brand which means you won’t find Tecovas’ goods just sitting on some shelf in a retailer. The only place you can shop Tecovas in the Sunshine State is in the Tecovas store in Tampa and Jacksonville.

The Tecovas store in Tampa gives off the rustic feel of the old West. Their boots are lined along stained wooden shelves. Shirts are hanging on old piping. And, the benches are wooden seats with a brick base.

When you first walk in, you can smell the scent of fresh leather throughout the store. If you're a first-time boot buyer, the staff will help you find out which style is right for you. While you're shopping, you can get your boots shined by a pro as a complimentary service or grab a drink from their in-store bar featuring hard seltzers, Bulleit Bourbon, Lalo Tequila, and more.

On Friday 7/12 and Saturday 7/13, starting at 10 AM, they are having their grand opening weekend party. The first 50 people in the store will receive a custom Tecovas Yeti mug and bag.

The Tecovas store in Tampa has it all. For the women, you'll find everything you need. There are jeans, skirts, shirts, boots, belts, wallets, dresses, bags and more. They've got "Style for the Aisle" which is wedding-ready clothes as well as casual clothes for any outing.

For the men, you've got pearl snap shirts in long sleeves and short sleeves, boots, jeans, t-shirts, outerwear, and more. For boots, they have Ranch Boots, Roper Boots, Chelsea half boots, Cowboy boots and Horseman boots.

They've got classic neon lighting in areas of the store to tip the hat to their Texas heritage. The Tecovas Store in Tampa International Mall is located upstairs directly next to the Apple Store near Dillards.

Cold beer and Country Music were made for each other. Who doesn’t love a good country song about drinking beer? Whether it's the end of a long work week or the start of a summer party out at a show, there’s always room for country music and beer. Here are our picks for the 5 best country songs about drinking beer.

There’s no doubt the country music genre has changed over the years. Sounds change and artists come and go, but one thing remains the same. Country Music is all about real life and shares the stories of the everyday American. 

Ask anyone outside the United States about what represents Americans. You’ll always find cold beer and country music at the heart of it all … we’ll take some hot dogs too. 

Outsiders looking in might criticize the genre for its simplicity, but there’s no doubt that the simplicity of it is why we all love it. Representing real life without the need for a new Rolex or Lambos. George Birge told us all about how the haters inspired his song Beer Beer Truck Truck at 2023's Guitar Pull.

Country Music will always be there waiting for you at the end of a long work week, just like an ice-cold beer. 

Narrowing it down to only 5 of the best country songs about drinking beer is not an easy task. So, we listed off a few more honorable mentions.

A few other honorable mentions include: When It Rains It Pours - by Luke Combs. Pop A Top - by Alan Jackson. Crushin’ It - by Brad Paisley. Drink in My Hand - by Eric Church. Beer Drinking Weather - by Canaan Smith. Beer With Jesus - by Thomas Rhett. Beer Never Broke My Heart - by Luke Combs. I Love This Bar and Beer For My Horses - by Toby Keith. 

If Beer Money isn't on your list, we don't want to hear it. This song is the prime example of enjoying the simple things in life after cashing in the paycheck. You can give it a listen below to get your weekend started the right way.

The late TobyKeith graced us with this timeless classic to remind us that cold beer and red solo cups are the centerfold of every party. If you're breaking out the solo cups, you know it's going to be a good time.

If you're not the type to work in a bank and not too great at slappin' on paint, then this one's for you. Here's a throwback to one of Billy Currington's finest.

What you see is what you get with Luke Combs. So, when he released '1,2 Many' with Brooks & Dunn, you knew it was going to be a party anthem. Luke Combs has no shortage of beer-drinking party songs, but '1,2 Many' takes the cake.

In classic Eric Church style, Cold One takes us through a breakup with a different point of view. When being one short of a 12-pack is worse than losing the girl, you know you made the right decision.
