Brand Tone

Authentic & Down-to-Earth, Adventurous & Free-Spirited, Modern & Stylish, Approachable & Friendly, Slightly Rugged & Resilient

Brand Values

• •Authenticity: Celebrating genuine Western style and spirit.
• •Quality: Implied through the focus on apparel that should be durable and well-made for its intended aesthetic and lifestyle.
• •Individuality & Self-Expression: Offering pieces that allow customers to express their personal connection to the Western style.
• •Adventure & Freedom: Embodying the spirit of the open range and an adventurous lifestyle.
• •Community (Potentially): Fostering a sense of belonging among those who appreciate Western culture and fashion.

Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Create a document outlining key tonal attributes (e.g., adventurous, authentic, friendly), preferred vocabulary (and words to avoid), grammar style, and examples. Share this with anyone creating content.
• •Know Your Audience: Understand who you're talking to – their aspirations, language, and connection to the Western lifestyle. Tailor your copy to resonate with them authentically.
• •Use Thematic Language Consistently: Weave in words and phrases associated with the West, adventure, nature, and freedom naturally. Avoid forcing it where it doesn't fit. Examples: "trailblazer," "roam," "frontier," "wild heart," "open range."
• •Prioritize Authenticity Over Trends (Unless Relevant): While staying current is important, ensure that any engagement with trends aligns with the core Western values and doesn't feel forced or inauthentic to the brand's spirit.
• •Review and Refine: Regularly audit your copy across all platforms (website, social media, emails) to ensure it consistently reflects the desired tone. Get feedback and be willing to adjust as the brand evolves or as you learn more about your audience.
