Cowboy boots, fringe, leather, Stetsons — if it feels like you're seeing more country-western fashion this season, it's not your imagination.

Cowboy hats, boots and more are have become style must-haves. Here's how to corral the best cowboy core trends for your closet.
Cowboy style emerged from a practical need for durable, hardworking clothing, and it drew from many sources, from Spanish American colonists to Union soldiers.

Today's cowboy core is also influenced by streetwear and Y2K's denim obsession, fusing traditional style details of the cowboy lifestyle with modern tastes.
