A legacy of decency since 1896

On the Oregon trail the Eastern Shoshone showed Franz Fredrick a generosity that built our family's future. 130 years later, Double R Western exists to return that favor. We aren't just selling T-shirts we are funding restoration and food sovereignty for the Eastern Shoshone and Arapaho through the Wind River Tribal Buffalo Initiative. Stand for something Bigger. Be Decent. Join the Herd.

The return of Boy-Zahn: The Buffalo Return

In the Eastern Shoshone language: Boy-Zhan Bi-Den" (or Boy-zhan) translates to "Buffalo Return", representing a significant initiative to restore wild bison to the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. Buffalo are sacred to the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho. We support their restoration efforts—every purchase helps renew land and feed the herd.

Through our partnership and our renew and restore initiative, your purchase directly supports their return. We aren't just looking back at the history of 1896- we are building a future where the herd roams free again.
