Dressing for the West
Author: Dusty_Trail
Who says cowboys have gone out of style? Heck there’s thousands of cowboys attending rodeos, riding bulls, and roping calves all over the country. Though it might be rare to see a cowboy walking around in an urban metropolis, the traditional cowboy values and culture are still preserved in rural locations around the United States. Cowboys represent a certain freedom, ruggedness, and defiance that characterized the westward expansion and the pioneer values that made America one great country.
If you’re interested in dressing like a cowboy for a special occasion, or just to experience some of what the real cowboys felt, there are several outfitters that sell cowboy clothing.
The traditional cowboy outfit consists of the cowboy hat (of course), chaps, boots and spurs, and a handkerchief draped around the neck to protect against dust.
