WTB Mens Bolero Jacket

[Poet Jones 99980]

I am trying to recreate a type of historical character. To that end I am looking for a men's Bolero jacket, sort of like the one worn by James West and Artemus Gordon in the tv series Wild, Wild West. I have checked everywhere under "bolero jacket, flamenco jacket, Spanish horse clothes, Portuguese horse clothes. There seems to be suppliers in Spain, Portugal and the UK. I thought that I would ask here first before paying the shipping.

Always liked the James West look.

 

Dapper but deadly.

 

Don't think I could pull it off grey with hair.

 

Work n Ranch would be a place to start. Ask for Linda. If she doesn't have it, she could track it down. 

 

Good luck Mr. Jones

Check your local tux shop.  They often have quite a bargain on coats that have been rented before.

What size?

46R Made in Mexico.  Worn twice by my father.  $150 plus shipping.  He paid $200 originally 20 years ago.  It has been in the closet with plastic wrap over it.

If you are looking for more of a Wild Wild West look instead of a vaquero then the Marshal has the right idea if not there are plenty of charro suits available online.  Here is a link to an original James West getup just for reference.

Thanks for this heads up! Been eye-ballin' this jacket for months, with the code and sale price, finally got in my range and ordered today!

[Poet Jones 99980]

Thanks for all the suggestions pards. Mayobard, thank you for the offer, it's a bit outside my budget right now. I like the one from WWEmporium, but I am looking for something around that discounted price, but without the embroidery.

[MAYOBARD SASS #13025L]

I understand.  My dad paid $200 for a taylor made one.  I could not let it go that cheap especially since he only wore it once.  It is like brand new.
