Cinch Western Wear

Are you ready for your next big rodeo?  

I was flipping thru the channels and I stumbled across bull a bull riding event. To be honest, I am not a rodeo fan but do have a deep respect for the athleticism & toughness required for the sport. While watching, I noticed a bull rider was branded with Cinch.  Then during the commercials, their was a Cinch advertisement.  So, for all you cowboys & cowgirls out there, here is some information about the brand.

Since 1996, the Cinch Clothing brand has been creating quality jeans and shirts for western men both in and out of the arena. Some of the best athletes from the rodeo, bull riding and equine performance circles love Cinch jeans and shirts because of the quality fit and the authentic western look.

Nudie Suits, Shirts, and other Westernwear Embellishments

Time to learn a bit more about the legendary Nudie's Rodeo Tailors.

Nudie suits take embellishments to the next level.

Nudie's offers custom one-of-a-kind suits and jackets that are hand tailored in Los Angeles, California.  Nudie Suits are made to measure and are completely customized based on your needs.  They offer custom embroidery, rhinestoning, handpainting, beading, leather inlay, and much more.

Nuta Kotlyarenko, known professionally as Nudie Cohn (December 15, 1902 – May 9, 1984), was a Ukrainian-born American tailor who designed decorative rhinestone-covered suits, known popularly as "Nudie Suits", and other elaborate outfits for some of the most famous celebrities of his era.  He also became famous for his outrageous customized automobiles.

Nudie Cohn and his wife Bobbie moved to New York  New York City and opened their first store, "Nudie's for the Ladies", specializing in custom-made undergarments for showgirls.  They moved to California in the early 1940s, and began designing and manufacturing clothing in their garage. In 1947 Cohn persuaded a young, struggling country singer named Tex Williams to buy him a sewing machine with the proceeds of an auctioned horse. In exchange, Cohn made clothing for Williams.   As their creations gained a following, the Cohns opened "Nudie's of Hollywood" on the corner of Victory and Vineland in North Hollywood, dealing exclusively in western wear, a style very much in fashion at the time.

Cohn's designs brought the already-flamboyant western style to a new level of ostentation with the liberal use of rhinestones and themed images in chain stitch embroidery. One of his early designs, in 1962, for singer Porter Wagoner, was a peach-colored suit featuring rhinestones, a covered wagon on the back, and wagon wheels on the legs. He offered the suit to Wagoner for free, confident that the popular performer (like Tex Williams) would serve as a billboard for his clothing line. His confidence proved justified and the business grew rapidly. In 1963 the Cohns relocated their business to a larger facility on Lankershim Boulevard in North Hollywood and renamed it "Nudie's Rodeo Tailors".  And the legend of this westernwear clothing store blossomed.

Jamie Nudie is the granddaughter of Nudie Cohn and his wife Bobbie.  She grew up in the Nudie's iconic North Hollywood store where she learned the business inside and out.  Her grandparents transitioned out of retail in 1994 and Jamie now oversees Nudie's Rodeo Tailors.

Many famous celebrities wore Nudie suits including Elvis.

Barstow Western Shirt

Calling all cowboys…  You are probably already aware, but just in case you are not, here is a little information about the Barstow shirt from Levi’s.

The Western Shirt is a Western wear style that became popular among cowboys, ranchers and other wearers.  It’s defined by a stylized yoke on the front and back as well as distinct pockets, such as “Barstow” (a Levi Strauss & Co. term for a single-yoke pocket) or “Sawtooth” (another Levi Strauss & Co. term for a double-yoke pocket).  Western Shirts typically have snap closures instead of buttons to minimize need for repair among workers.

Barstow Western: Worn by cowboys and ranch hands in the 1930s, Levi’s® iconic Barstow Western shirt has little choice but to transcend the West. It’s become a wardrobe classic with details like a traditional Western yoke and a snap-front closure.

2013 CMT Music Awards Fashion

This year’s CMT Music Awards have been announced, as have the hosts, Kristen Bell and Jason Aldean and most recently, the nominees listed below.

Thanks to a new uprising of cool, country stars, the genre of music often transcends just country music and today is widely known among mainstream media to become a permanent fixture in pop culture. The sassy ladies of country (Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, to name a few) are even raising the bar of fashion and style, as are the “bad boys” of country (Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, Eric Church, to name a few). Hunter Hayes recently caught the eye of Esquire magazine, confirming the fact that this is no longer your mama’s country. New country artists are trendsetters and influencers and combined with their southern swagger, they’ve successfully launched a brand new kind of country.

We are extremely excited to see the fashion of this year’s CMT Music Awards. 

Something else to consider when think about the CMT Music Awards, is the ever-increasing popularity of the country music genre.  We’re at the point, for example, where every season on mainstream reality television competition shows like “American Idol, “ the “Voice,” and even “X Factor” you can expect a healthy showing of country auditioners and collectively the shows have had several winners from the country genre. “Voice” alum and last year’s winner, Cassadee Pope, who based on her success on the show, recently converted from punk pop to to country, will have a prominent presence at this year’s awards show. She will be hosting our Twitter lounge and cameras will be following her around as she is currently in production for her upcoming series to debut on CMT, “The Cassadee Pope Project.” Country music is undoubtedly considered more mainstream than ever before with widespread international appeal. Research tells us that nearly 100 million Americans are country music enthusiasts and the genre has proven to be timeless and ever-powerful in creating strong and lasting connections between our artists and the fans. And the country music consumer is no longer who you think they are – they are tech savvy -- evident by the fact that last year’s show saw its highest online engagement ever via Facebook and Twitter. The country music fan has spending power and because of this, they are a passionate group of consumers who connect with the artists and the music, and the universal themes they represent. And the passion for country extends beyond our domestic borders. Country artists are expanding outside the US with more tours overseas, selling out venues all over the world.

The party for the 2013 CMT MUSIC AWARDS is underway as Eric Church, Luke Bryan and Miranda Lambert lead the nominations, each picking up four for this year’s live show. Nominees were announced this morning on People.com. Voting for the CMT MUSIC AWARDS begins now at CMT.com and continues until Sunday, June 2, at midnight ET.

The 2013 CMT MUSIC AWARDS marks the 12th anniversary of the awards show and will air LIVE from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on Wednesday, June 5 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT on CMT and CMT.com.
