My mom used to make these for my brother. We called them Cavalry shirts, and my brother even wore it like John Wayne, 1 or even 2 buttons undone. Mind you, this was in the last 70's... Not 1870's but 1970's. OH, and she even piped them in yellow

That rocks! My wife and I made pro wrestling gear for many years (tights, trunks, masks, etc). Hardly anyone makes anything anymore. When I was a kid half the women in town (and ALL the teachers in my school) wore clothes they had made themselves out of doubleknit polyester. There was a fabric store called Mr. Yard in our tiny town that was just busy as hell all the time in those days. They even sold novelties and comic books as well as fabric, patterns and scissors.

South Union mills makes a replica of a bib shirt found on the steamship Arabia and they are gorgeous and well worth looking at. Most of the clothes that I don’t make myself come from south Union mills. They make the most accurate reproductions I’ve found of period clothing unlike from frontier classics, scully, wah maker etc that get the material and patterns all wrong. I highly suggest checking them out they go above and beyond and they truly sell nothing whatsoever that is inaccurate! Hope you are well- your holster and clothes making friend from Maryland !

When I lived in Cheyenne between 1976 and 1979. My mothers friend was a Taylor in town that did custom shirts. Her name was Lona and her shirts were known as Lona's Originals. During Cheyenne frontier days she set up her booth and sold custom shirts. She would take orders and fill them throughout the year. Her booth normally had hundreds of custom shirts. At the time, her shirts ran 60 to 75 dollars for an off the rack one. And the most expensive I saw was 300.00 for a hand embroidered eagle on the back purchased by Charlie Daniels.

I'm definitely going to add bib front shirts to my stories and world, alongside other clothing from tge old west and clothing from the 70s to the 2000s.

I had my first shield-front shirts custom made for me in 1975, so I was an early adopter. More recently, I was fortunate to purchase some very nice ones from River Junction when they were selling out old stock on eBay. I got them for half price in 3XL which I need. Sorry you missed out. Real shield shape burgundy with blue piping, and forest green with yellow piping which I over-dyed green. Paul said they were not able to restock because the ladies who made the shirts were just not ablate make them anymore. Arthritis I guess. It looks like some people are still making them, but the ones with piping are rare. My favorites are these, but with smile pockets under the shield. Not Old West, but hey.

The subject of Billy’s shirt is truly fascinating and the story of that image. I was reading to hell on a fast horse by mark lee Gardner and he talked about that in detail. The fact that there’s no real conclusion of the color of material for the shirt is a rare chance of us being able to take some reasonable liberties in its replicas. Also the fact that all of his friends who saw the picture said it looked odd and not like how he really dressed. The most common consensus from the people I’ve talked to and books I’ve read is he just dressed up with studio props for the most part because everyone said he really typically dressed like the local New Mexicans. That being wearing basic standard clothing of the time but with wide brimmed low crown sombreros and an occasional sarape
@ArizonaGhostriders 5 ай бұрын
That's correct. It was a traveling photographer, so may not have had a lot of clothes. However, Paulita Maxwell (I believe it was her), said she never liked the way Billy looked FOR that photo. I think it may not have been all his. Either way...it's all we have. Since we don't really know, we go with what we have. The shirt could have been red also, but with the lighting in the show, we went with blue (the other main color).

Thanks Santee. These shirts are really cool and quite practical. Have you done a video yet about the ubiquitous dollar watch?
@ArizonaGhostriders 5 ай бұрын
Thank You! Not that watch, but I did mention that a large variety of companies made watches for every economic class.

The Monkees used a versiion of the western bib shirt for their stage costume on their TV Show. It seemed that Mike Nesmith was a big fan of that style, being from Texas and the costume designer Vincent Dee ran them up in red and blue along with black velvet.

02:17. In Christian symbolism, an anchor represents the virtue of Hope. Charity is a flaming heart, and Faith, a cross.

I could see myself wearing a plain one. I have a personal aversion to wearing logos, slogans or any such advertisement. But a nice charcoal or midnight black... Best of Days to All the Ghostriders.

I made one out of red plaid wool (customer wanted that fabric). The store bought pattern was not made to be a pull over shirt, but had a button up front. Then it was found that he was allergic to wool, so the solution was a navy blue cotton lining. The bib hid the button up shirt front and came out looking very good. I have to say I was sick and tired of making button holes by the time the project finished. It did look good with the bib partly unbuttoned. Should I ever make another one I will go for the pull over pattern !

Santee another historical video. I always thought in Hollywood movies especially John Wayne wearing them. I never looked that close to Billy the Kid shirt to see bib & anchor. Makes sense history on bib shirt. -Kid Yuma

I love bib shirts, have a few of them and it isn't something you see much out here in Saskatchewan (rarely see western stores selling them). Like banded collar shirts, they are different and more interesting than the current basic shirt style we have today. I always wonder if shirts like this went out of fashion or if manufacturers didn't want to make all these multiple styles and people slowly stopped making their own clothes so the current basic style of button shirt just became the standard.

Not exactly sure. Styles change. The pullover went away, too.

I wonder if you could make them with false ties and bring them back for button-ups, like a cross between a dickie and a clip-on tie, but up front, literally. Maybe even a regular tie. Or maybe underneath a regular tie. You've already got the buttondowns for the collar, and you could use the top button and maybe one above the belt, so we would only need to make double-breasted buttons unaccountably fashionable on shirts, first, so that there could be some standardization of dimensions. I think this is doable.

@bigblue6917 5 ай бұрын
Having seen many westerns growing up I noticed that it was often worn by the US Cavalry so I thought it was copied from them and was copied as a fashion item as often happens. So thanks for giving me a better idea of its origins.

It was never a shirt the military used in the west, but they were allowed due to their protective abilities.
