History

Harold's was founded in 1948 in Norman, Oklahoma and was later moved to Dallas, Texas. The chain operated high-end men's and women's clothing, usually located in upper-class areas and shopping centers in the midwestern and southeastern parts of the United States. Their practice of offering customers small bottled cokes was noted as well as their selection of braided leather belts.

On November 10, 2008, the company was granted bankruptcy liquidation, claiming "Increased competition and a weak economy have left us no choice but to cease operations." [1]
