conchos, show halters


I have learned that conchos are not only decorative but are also functional in cowboy clothing. The cowboy will use conchos in his riding gear. From belt buckle sets, show halters, bridles, bits and breast collars. I have even seen conchos used decoratively on horse trailers.

If you are in the market for any kind of concho shopping on line is the answer. I have found several websites that offer so many different kinds of conchos you may be shopping for a while. I know I spent over any hour just looking before making a final decision.

Conchos come in many shapes from squares, round, oblong to hearts. They can be embellished with western themes like equestrian tack or a barrel racer. I have seen the Texas star and a longhorn steer. I also found some conchos made with crystal rhinestones, if you want to bling up your show halters. 

The websites also offered key rings, tie tacks and cell phone cases adorned with conchos. The themes range from western to celtic and even golf. It seems the popularity of conchos can be seen outside of the horse arena.
