I started to post these in Cowboy Boots but I figured the name might be more familiar here. Not vintage in the sense of being old but they come from a shop that continues to produce show pieces with that vintage look and these appear to be Piteado, an art that's all but disappeared.

Some Nathan Turk suits for singer/songwriter Kenny Odell. He liked brown.

I have a thing for these early western shirts but my buying luck was so bad that I gave up trying to add any to the closet a few years ago but I'm always looking. This one ticked a lot of boxes for me and I followed it on the bay as it was auctioned. I'm glad this one was too small or I might have taken a swipe at it. I really like the hounds tooth yokes and red piping.

I've never studied the history of the H Bar C/ California Ranch wear labels but this looks like it could be an early one to me. Maybe some of you guys know.

The Joe's McCoy's Leather Rough Out Western Jacket, a flannel, and jeans is a solid look imo. I wouldn't wear cowboy boots with any outfit unless I was going to a Rodeo or starring in Yellowstone. A good denim jacket is western enough for most people.

i know NOTHING about western shirts but I thought this was pretty cool.
That's a unique one that I don't ever remember seeing. Rockmount covers a lot of bases with their designs.

Western shirt history: Jack Arnold Weil, founder of Rockmount is credited with being the first to put pearl snaps and sawtooth pockets on western shirts.
