The Best Cowboy Goods

Longfellow wearing the Johnny Ringo Custom Cowboy Hat

Like all clothing the type, shape, and color of your hat defines your personality. It's highly unlikely that any other single piece of clothing carries the mystic that a quality, distinctively shaped cowboy hat does.

Rossitter Cavalry Hat.

B-Western Classic.

1898 Roughrider hat.

Nothing a traditional cowboy wore was as unique as his cowboy hat and the big hat was adjusted by working cowboys to reflect the weather conditions and terrain they faced in the different territories of the Old West.

Sassy Ladies hats.

Sonja

Grease up your guns outlaw's
And cinch them on tight. . . .
There'll be blood a runnin',
In town before night.

There'll be gun's a blazin'
And singin' with lead
Tonight you'll be drinkin'
Your drinks with the dead.

Excerpt from
The Outlaw's Lament

Open Range Custom Leather Chaps.

Classic Slim Jim Holster.

Longfellow's - The Last Best West.

Titus Pullo - the Red Heeler.

Code of the Old West:
Never touch a Cowboy's hat or try to pat his dog.

Home of The Last Best Cowboy Hat.

We are designers and makers of hand made cowboy and western hats, custom gun leather, knives, chaps, and leather accessories. We strive for authenticity in the pieces we reproduce from the 19th and early decades of the 20th century and from western movies. Our custom hats, knives, and cowboy leather is made to order and to last. We promise to make no two custom pieces exactly the same - and our originality and individuality bring clients back time and again to our order catalogue. Moreover, we use what we design and make in Wild West Shows and SASS Events. We are experts on the old west; cowboys and their tools and western film history - but we do not know everything.

Our three lines of original poster art (Old West Posters, Authentic Wanted Posters, and Legends of the West) can be seen all over the world, from homesteads and club houses to fancy Dance Halls and Saloons.

COWBOYS AND INDIANS MAGAZINE
Our thanks to Cowboys and Indians Magazine for giving us a shout out in your Christmas Issue. We're flattered our Josey Wales hat was featured in the Holiday Gifts for the Western Fan, section of the December 2009 issue. Yer show exquisite taste!

The Cowboy Code or Code of the Old West

The Code of the West was an intangible thing born out of necessity for survival, and is more of an observation on how people acted, then anything else. . .in essence this was the Code of the West: A true Cowboy always helps his neighbor, feeds a stranger and his horse, and maintains his free and in dependant spirit. In the Old West you never asked a stranger his name or where he came from. It was considered a slight to call another man by his last name - and often last names weren't even known. A cowboy's loyalty to his ranch, his friends, and his abilities as a rider and a cow hand were all that mattered. Click for more about the Code of the Old West.

Cowboy Ten Commandments

Just one God.

Honor yer Ma and Pa.

No telling tales or gossipin'.

Git ye to Sunday meetin’.

Put nothin' before God.

No foolin' around with another fella's gal.

No killin'.

Watch yer mouth.

Don't take what ain't yers.

Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's gear.

Longfellow

 

Custom Leather Products

July 2010: Added a couple of custom items for the ladies. A gunbelt and holster perfect for Classic Cowboy or Cowboy Action Shooting, as well as some fine looking summer weight shotgun chaps. As well we are proud to introduce our version of the rifle sheath carried by John Wayne in that outstanding John Ford western; The Searchers. It took us a while but we think we have something quite special here. Click to see.

We have finally bowed to customer requests and are introducing a Classic Buscadero; patterned after the iconic rig from Have Gun Will Travel. A design for Texas Lawmen from the 1920s the Buscadero got a further refinement in the 1950s. Paladin's rig had the belt widened at the holster, so the holster is positioned further down the leg, putting your pistol at the same height as your hand.

This is the style of gun rig most of us are familiar with, and can be seen in almost all of your favourite tv and movie westerns from the 1950s-60s and 1970s. Click here for our Have Gun Will Travel Rig.

Posters

Authentic Wanted Posters
Our poster paper is heavy duty stock, special ordered by the ream, and is the closest we have found to actual parchment paper that would have been used in the 19th century. It's heavy weight and won't get torn or blown off the hitching post! We don't stain it (reducing it's life) all our aging is done with graphics - making them crisp and clear. Posters are all ~ 11 x 17 inches and are shipped flat.
