    Can I just say that as someone who enjoys dressing in the fancier western getups (think Tombstone) this more cosplay-rugged look screams insecurity when worn by people trying to look… Like they do manual labor?

    Like he’s a billionaire. Where’s the tailored frock jacket, vest, and bolo tie, with a $3k hat. At least that way he wouldn’t be a poser

      Or the regular, modern version: boots, jeans, belt, flannel, aaaaand $3k hat. In the summer, you swap your wool hat for straw, but don’t you DARE wear short pants or a t-shirt.

          Nah, dog; it’s a gold-plated ellipse with a bull head and 3D horns.

          Preferably purchased from a general store in the middle of Arizona, run by Native Americans.
