Yellowstone Outfits: What the Duttons Actually Wear
If you can't get enough of the Duttons on Yellowstone, the smash hit Western series on the Paramount Network, you're among friends. As we approach the highly anticipated show to be premiered on Netflix, fans everywhere are chasing the Yellowstone TV show clothing look, and its influence on fashion and culture continues to grow.
Let's dive into the brands and styles that make Yellowstone a fashion phenomenon and how you can capture that iconic Western look. We even created a tailor-made collection influenced by the distinctive outfits in Yellowstone.
Why Is Yellowstone a Phenomenon?
Yellowstone's popularity stems from its compelling storytelling, breathtaking scenery, and complex characters. The show has sparked a renewed interest in Western culture and fashion, influencing everything from tourism to music.
The Yellowstone Effect
Yellowstone characters are known for wearing classic Western staples from brands like Wrangler, Kimes Ranch, Justin, Schaefer Outfitter, and Ariat. Rip Wheeler wears Wrangler jeans and Kimes Ranch outerwear, while John Dutton is often seen in Justin Ostrich cowboy boots, Wrangler jeans, and his signature Schaefer Outfitter jacket. Across the ranch, you’ll find plenty of Western boots, denim, jackets, gloves, and workwear that have helped define the show’s iconic look.
The "Yellowstone effect" goes beyond the screen. The show has brought Western style to a much wider audience, with viewers looking to recreate the rugged, authentic ranch looks worn by their favourite characters. What makes the wardrobe so influential is that these aren’t fictional pieces created just for television, they’re real Western brands and products that have been worn by working cowboys and ranchers for decades.

Yellowstone Brands
The show features several high-quality Western wear brands that have become synonymous with the Yellowstone look:
Kimes Ranch: Featured in jeans and hats worn by various characters.
Kimes Ranch appears everywhere, from branded Kimes Ranch hats on many leading ladies, like Monica or other ranch hands. You’ll also spot Kimes Ranch jeans, including several styles carried by Wei’s. The Betty jean for women and the Skink quilted jacket for men exude a cool and clean character that tells others in clear terms what it means to be a woman or a man. Kimes Ranch went from a small denim label to a fixture on the show in a few short years. Here's how Kimes Ranch got there.
Wrangler: A staple in Western wear, Wrangler jeans are prominently featured.
Wei’s carries more than 100 styles of men’s Wrangler jeans. You read that number right. From roomy fits to slim fits, from the classic 13MWZ to the pre-washed version, from classic black jeans to styles with modern fabric treatments, there is definitely a Wrangler style that will work for you.
And Wrangler really does make the best authentic Western shirts, the kind with snaps instead of buttons, and Western yokes on front and back. For women, take a look at the Willow and Q-Baby jeans styles. Check out Wei’s Wrangler selection.
Levi's: From jackets to jeans, Levi's adds an authentic American touch.
Another piece of denim you’ll see, from jackets to jeans, is Levi’s. It’s another brand that is so pervasive, and is such a part of American history, that you could not have a Western series without it. Levi’s is increasing its urban feel with several styles but it will always be the 501 jeans and the awesome jean jackets that define the Levi’s brand.
Justin Boots: John Dutton's choice for cowboy boots.
The King of the ranch, John, wears Justin Ostrich cowboy boots! And we don't blame him. Wei’s has stocked gorgeous exotic boots from Justin for decades. Nowadays Wei’s stocks more than 50 exotic boot styles from six major brands, including Justin, Lucchese, and Hondo.
Schaefer Outfitters: Responsible for John's iconic quilted jacket.
John’s iconic quilted jacket is made by Schaefer, and you may feel more than a little iconic yourself when you discover this quality US brand. When you look at Schaefer you know it’s Western identity to the core. When you feel their garments you know they don’t just talk about quality, they achieve it. Check out Schaefer jackets, coats and vests at Wei’s.
Ariat: Known for comfortable and durable work boots.
Some of the rugged work boots are none other than Ariat, one of the favourite work boot brands at Wei’s. Our customers rave about their out-of the-box comfort. When you’re used to breaking in work boots, you can get pretty excited about instant comfort.
