Like your Pow Pow used to wear.

Yay or nay?

I went to a wedding for an old college buddy from Dallas, and I noticed a couple of the TX guys our age (mid 30's) were wearing the classic western suits and boots. I thought they looked great, my wife scoffed at them further confirming my interest in getting one.

And I'm not talking about a nudie suit with the cactus and music notes. Just a traditional western cut slim fit suit.

I found this in my size, and I think it's awesome.

Texas definitely has its own sense of style that really isn't followed many other places in the country.

It requires you wear an oversized cowboy hat as well, but hey if that's how you roll, have at it.

Here's the run down... I bought that exact suit I posted above.

They are out there on EBay, but you gotta find your jacket size. There are more used ones than new and a lot are cheesy. After randomly checking a couple times a week for the last few months there it was from a vintage store out of Huffman, TX.

It's 1972 new old stock still with tags Trego's Westernwear steel blue slim fit Vegas suit 48L(subtle brag). Unhemmed 36-40 waist pants. MSRP on the tag of $207.00 which was a lot of money back then. It's a mint 44 year old suit.

I got it for $85 and free shipping.

What material is your suit made of?

Wool/poly blend?

I pretty sure that's exactly what it is, but I don't remember the percentages from the pics of the tags.
