Anyone know any good places for getting the wild west style? I have found riverjunction.com which seems a good choice for purchases.

What are you after, exactly...

Have a look on eBay in the "Vintage>Men's Clothing>Pre-1930 (Victorian, 20s)" category- there are at least two vendors who flog a lot of gear for cheaper than retail (usually). I picked up a couple of pairs of canvas/duck cinch back western trousers...

Here's another- http://www.cows.com/cows/home.html

River Junction looks pretty good.

Thanks, Speedster, for the link. I love Old West stuff; they not only have the Old West hats, they even have books, videos and music. Don Edwards is my favorite cowboy singer.

I really got a kick out of Outlaw Annie's -- The Basics of Mounted Shooting.

Wow guys thanks for such a wealth of info.

Was browsing and came across this - what are people's thoughts regarding authenticity?

My theory is, if you are wearing authentic Wild West clothing, you won't get a second look as much of it is very subdued.

The theatrical kind of clothing, though, is another story.

Ouch!
Hope your corneas are ok!
You might want to get some Raybans if you're going to keep your eyes on it much longer!

I did like that one too although I just prefer the Drifter coat - something about it just screams Bounty Hunter to me. I love it.
