    You can do the cowboy look well. Ditch the long leather coat, the hat and the toothpick. Wear flannel button-ups and cowboy boots of a standard color with jeans of a standard color.

    Don’t copy phrases from movies, but speak slowly and politely. Don’t do a strong accent, but it’s ok to do a mild accent. Instead of tipping a hat, give a significant, thoughtful head nod as a greeting.

    Check out Sam from TrueBlood as a good example.

      If you want what real current day cowboys wear.

      • Boots (no over the top clasps, spurs, and stuff. Go for something like this: https://www.justinboots.com/)

      • Light blue jeans pants

      • white t shirt, can substitute a linen or seersucker button down if preferred. Plain or checkered pattern if doing button down.

      • western hat

      • belt with big buckle (optional)
