Clothing store that needs to go:<br />
Women’s Western wear in general –<br />
there’s how many leather and fur<br />
stores in this town?<br />
Best trend sighted in Jackson:<br />
<strong>The</strong> high school kids are down with<br />
good style; the kinda punk-rock-emoneon<br />
stuff.<br />
Worst trend sighted in Jackson:<br />
<strong>The</strong> Patagoochi trend<br />
Jackson’s fashion scene is often easily dismissed and frequently stereotyped. When<br />
asked to define valley style, “function” and “comfort” are commonly heard from the mouths<br />
of locals and visitors. Outdoor brands like Patagonia, <strong>The</strong> North Face, Marmot and locally<br />
grown Cloudveil are mentioned often around town.<br />
Although half put to rest with the last of Clint Eastwood’s Western flicks, the other familiar<br />
Jackson get-up – a good ole cowboy hat, denim and cowboy boots –– is still spotted on<br />
two different sets of folks: the real-deal cowboys who work area ranches and out-of-town<br />
imitators.<br />
However, in an attempt to escape city life – as well as the confines of the suit-and-tie mainstream<br />
– new residents bring bits and pieces of their old lives and the styles to which<br />
they’ve become accustomed. <strong>The</strong>se expats of American cubicle culture create an eclectic<br />
mélange of Jackson fashion, not unlike cosmopolitan cities, though harder to find.<br />
Locals<br />

(except for the high school kids)<br />
Favorite place to shop: Internet<br />
Clothing store that Jackson needs<br />

Best trend sighted in Jackson: All the<br />
young kids<br />

Outerwear<br />

<strong>The</strong>re might be, maybe, one too many<br />
fur stores.<br />
Best trend sighted in Jackson:<br />
Tourists who wear matching outfits and<br />
couples that match.<br />
Worst trend sighted in Jackson:<br />
I think some people have bad manners<br />
and - I’m guilty of this too - the oversized<br />
beanies with reservoir tips. This<br />

look kinda silly.<br />

<strong>The</strong> damn moon boots. <strong>The</strong>y have<br />
multiple colors of them at the<br />
Bootlegger and they are heinous.
