This style of clothing is not all that difficult to find, what with the sport of Cowboy Action Shooting gaining in popularity. Above is a link to "Texas Jack" Harvey's store in Fredericksburg, Texas. He's well involved in the spoort, and is also head of Cimmaron Arms (they sell Italian-made replicas of early cartridge firearms).

If you just want something authentically "frontier" they have it. I haven't looked for a particular style...

I bought one of these... it is as perfect a match as I have seen. The Aussie dusters have too much in the lapels.

They list but don't show a "Walnut" colored one, which they state is dark brown. Is that the one you got? Is it similar in color to Mal's coat?

Sorry to bump an old thread, but it makes more sense than making a new one about the same topic. ;)

Start hitting thrift stores and army surplus, especially those that handle foreign military gear. Actually, that reminds me to recommend http://www.sportsmansguide.com

I found this one on the site. http://www.texasjacks.com/coats/CanvasDust.htm It is available in a chocolate color. With some minor alterations, it just might do the trick.

Heh... Wah Maker. "Strikes fear into the hearts of..."

Definitely think the one at adamleathers.com is the cheese. It ain't cheap, but it sure is shiny. Not sure what size I'd go with, though. Wish they gave measurements instead of just Small, Medium, Large, etc. Might just have to drive to Camp Hill, PA to try em on. Ain't that far for me, I live in New Jersey.
