Woman 7:00© NUCLEAR NIGHTMARES: WARS THAT MUST NEVER United Press International Sandra Kauffman thinks the cow boy look in fashion is popular be cause it represents a direct link to our past. She calls western apparel “hero clothes” and city dwellers "the legi timate heirs of the cowboy.” “The cowboy did a very danger ous job in a hostile environment,” she said in an interview. “City dwel lers today have the same kind of guts. We feel like loners, like one person fighting the system.” Kauffman, a native New Yorker, disagrees with those who say urban people look ridiculous in cowboy clothes. “If putting them on,” she said, gesturing at her jeans, shirt and cowboy boots, “makes us feel a lit tle bit taller and stronger and able to cope, that’s great.” Kauffman also thinks western wear’s popularity parallels the fit ness trend. "When Americans became in terested in physical fitness — hik ing, backpacking, camping, horse back riding — I think they became very interested in the land, and be gan to ask, ‘Could I live like that?”’ The cowboy was glorified for fighting off Indians and outlaws but Kauffman thinks his real heroism lay in working in a hostile climate, in temperatures from 60 below to 120 above zero, and often risking his life to stop stampedes in a hazardous landscape. Her crash course on western wear and lore began with research for her third book, “The Cowboy Catalog” (Potter $22.50 hardcover, $10.95 paperback). It is a guide to buying and caring for apparel and riding equipment and an entertain ing history of a period almost every one romanticizes. She bristles when people call cowboy outfits “costumes.” “This,” she said, pointing to her own apparel, “is worn all the time by people in 16 states,” including HAPPEN Peter Ustinov imag ines the “unthinkable” with four frightening and visually explicit scenarios of nuclear holocaust culminating in a fall out shelter where, in the after- math of each calamity, he reveals how it happened. many in the Midwest and the South and even in New York State, where more than 90,000 horses are used or ridden for work and pleasure. “They are survival clothes. They were designed for protection. The shirts were tapered at the waist so they wouldn’t catch on the horns of a steer or on the brush or saddlery. “Boots are masterpieces of de sign in terms of protection,” she said. If you’re thrown, she said, you can kick free from the stirrups be cause the tapered heels keep your foot from going all the way through and the pointed toes let you to catch stirrups quickly in mounting. Cowboy hats’ high crowns are designed for coolness, she said, and their wide brims offer protection from sun, snow and rain. Her husband’s family has been in the riding equipment and apparel business since 1875, when his great grandfather founded H. Kauff man & Sons Saddlery, in Newark, N. J. The company moved to its pre sent East 24th Street address in New York City 60 odd years ago. Western wear today is a $4.5 bil lion industry, says Sylvia Kor- nelsen, executive director of the Denver-based Western and En glish Manufacturers Association. Kornelsen described that retail sales estimate as conservative. The single most expensive arti cles are probably boots and silver accessories such as belt buckles, Kauffman said. During research for her book, she said, she was shown a $25,000 pair of handmade black leather boots decorated with rubies and di amonds. But good leather boots can be bought for $90-$150, she added, while alligator-skin dress boots can run $1,400-$2,000 a pair. Well-made cowboy boots can last 20-30 years, she added, so “you have to think of them as an investment.
