Houston’s Own Aspen Oasis — Kemo Sabe Pops Up In Rice Village, Embracing Rodeo Mania

Houston Rodeo is rocking, and Kemo Sabe of Aspen has brought its high-end Western style to Rice Village. A limited time pop-up shop is showcasing the full Kemo Sabe experience, with a dedicated team ready to assist shoppers with everything they need throughout Rodeo season. Whether it’s creating a custom hat, selecting the perfect jewelry, or finding a pair of cowboy boots, it’s all available. 

Kemo Sabe’s opening night, held in partnership with Nan and Company Properties, was quite the fashionable scene with most attendees decked out in outfits inspired by the brand’s signature style. Known for custom cowboy hats, handcrafted boots, and luxurious Western accessories, Kemo Sabe mixes tradition with luxury, setting the standard for fashion-forward Western wear. 

Fashion enthusiasts at the kickoff event donned a range of stylish Western wear from sleek denim tuxedos to bold colorful dresses, all carefully paired with Kemo Sabe’s cowboy boots and customized hats. Whether knee-high or ankle-length, the boots added a sharp, rugged edge to every outfit, making many of the looks pop with Western charm.

Nan and Company Properties’ Nancy and Jose Almodovar were among those stepping out in fine Western wear.

Kemo Sabe vendors filled the room, offering everything from jewelry and Western belts to silk scarves and more. Selections from Love Tokens, Wild Silks, Jenya Renee, Heather Benjamin, Just Jules, Lady Lancaster, Mountain Gems, Nigaam, Three Sons and Bohlin were highlighted.

As the evening unfolded, everyone had the opportunity to personalize their cowboy hats with custom branding, feathers, character pins and silver hardware, enhancing the shopping experience. Kemo Sabe’s ability to offer finely crafted accessories, like these custom hats, makes it clear that every piece is not just fashion—it’s a work of art. 

With a lively DJ, free cocktails, Maven Coffee and an oyster bar, the scene almost felt like a true Aspen oasis. 

Kemo Sabe’s pop-up shop will be at Rice Village until Sunday, March 23. Learn more here.
