Western Style Cowboy Outfit With Wyatt Boots
It’s time for another outfit on my men’s fashion blog with a western-inspired ensemble. Read on to find out more.
I’ve always had a lotta love for western looks, probably due to watching endless cowboy movies with my Dad (check out my article sharing his life story here), and the fascination stuck as I got older.
Regular readers will have seen my style change over time; one of the benefits is that I get opportunities to dress in all sorts of different ways, so today was a western day! (Even so, I have worn these types of looks in a variety of different other outfits –
- Checked shirt and Chelsea boots combo
- Camo jacket and cowboy boots
- A very 80s looking donkey jacket ensemble
Outfit
To get this look, I chose an AllSaints brown western shirt, rolled up the sleeves to eliminate the loose-look arms and achieve a sleeker overall appearance. I wore the shirt open over a classic ASOS white T-shirt to create a more casual vibe – a timeless staple that has never let me down; I have tried out many, many brands, with many epically failing in style, fit, quality, and durability.
My choice of denim was my current new favourite – Nudie Jeans Skinny Lin in washed black. This slightly looser pair of jeans is a welcome addition to my wardrobe, in contrast to my close-fitting women’s skinny jeans. I have always been a strong advocate for the huge benefits of guys wearing denim from the ladies section – they boast a sleeker fit, are typically softer and much more comfortable, and often feature an amazing wash! (something that would otherwise only be obtainable from searching through endless pages of vintage jeans on a secondhand marketplace or by practising the long-drawn-out process of wearing raw denim).
There was only ever going to be one choice when it came to footwear – Saint Laurent Wyatt Boots (reviewed here). These shoes are the current hot trend in fashion circles, encompassing everything about the cowboy trend in a pair of expertly crafted boots. While high-fashion models deliver a sleek look, if you are searching for footwear with a rugged, traditional texture, there are other, more cost-effective and durable alternatives available (such as a pair of roughout cowboy boots) when you want to incorporate an authentic western feel to your ensemble.
Naturally, I added an abundance of jewellery items to seal the deal – necklace, bracelets, rings, Omega Watch and a pair of RayBan Sunglasses. My personal go-to is the ever-timeless aviators, although special mention must go to the Clubmaster or Wayfarer (which undoubtedly hit fame thanks to the Blues Brothers movie!). That said, you don’t need to pay designer prices to grab stylish eyewear; there are plenty of budget options available (such as Tomahawk or Sunglasses Hut’s very own collection).
Location
When we are in Bath for a shoot, we have finally concluded that there are not many unused areas for us to head to, causing quite the headache as I try my hardest to use only new locations (for 6 months at least!) to keep my imagery fresh. Fortunately, we happened upon a church area with an abundance of close-quarter walled sections, making for a very unique (and new!) site for photographs.
