Resistol black felt hats - $49
Resistol white straw hats - $21
Wrangler jeans - under $16   see below
Wrangler button-down long sleeeved shirts - $24
Wrangler snap-down long sleeeved shirts - $35

Wrangler jeans come in two styles (as indicated on the inside fly):
  13MWZ - kinda baggy, very comfortable, called "boot cut"
  936 or 936PWD - Slim-Fit, Boot-But...very sexy iffen ya got the legs and ass.

Cinch jeans - fairly baggy, also very sexy, but more expensive.

Belt buckle - depends, but can't compare to the three broken ribs, torn knee, broken wrist, concussion, and gored several times rodeo award buckles.

Take it like a man - steady and strong, not a lot of fuss and carring on.  True to a promise, I can ride in any storm.  So bend over and take it like a man...Too much of a good thing is a good thing.

Come on now, that trailor shirt is awful, who would ever wear such a thing? Combine it with the gaudy touquoise belt buckle and you have a walking disaster.

Carson Cressley, where are you when we need you?


The only place you could get away with that ensemble is at a BBM theme party at some West Village gay watering hole.

As I said, the clothes wouldn't be the issue!

Clothing would certainly not be an issue for Ennis Del Mar on his ranch work income. And, as I have posted before, almost ALL of the wardrobe for Ennis could have been purchased at a 2nd hand clothing store or thrift shop.

And until AFTER Lureen's (no name in the book) father died, Jack Twists clothing could have been purchased at the same kinds of stores at a cheap outlet clothing store. In the school year of 1969-70, I bought Ely brand western clothing in the Webb City, Missouri outlet store there. The clothing had minor flaws which most people would never have noticed in the first place. I think that I still have one of those Ely cowboy shirts, now that I think of it.

Annie Proulx's Jack Twist never worked for his father-in-law.

Not just COULD HAVE... all of their wardrobe WAS purchased at a second hand clothing store...

...The clothes on Jake and Heath’s backs were scooped up from a retro/vintage clothing store, Divine Decadence, in Calgary and Edmonton.

Here's the link

Look under the Calgary button section under the Design Your Own Brokeback Tour

The shirts worn by Ennis and Jack up on Brokeback Mountain came from a Denver Western Clothing store!

Cabela has a Weed Eater powered margarita mixer for them tailgate parties...so I'm thinkng that I got a 120 Volt power take off in my truck and garbage disposal to chip the ice.
