C&I Affiliate Links Policy

About C&I Affiliate Links

As the voice of the modern Western lifestyle, C&I shares content that celebrates the American West. We pride ourselves on giving our readers the best of the West—whether that’s where to go, what to wear, who to see, or what to do. Our content not only puts readers first, it gives them the chance to live the Western lifestyle we love.

That said, when you purchase a product through a link on our website, we might earn an affiliate commission. This is now a common media practice used by many notable sites, including TimeOutside, Taste of HomeWirecutter, and Good Housekeeping.


How It Works

When you click a link on one of our pages that goes to an affiliate partner site, the URL automatically notes that you came from C&I. If you purchase that product, we may earn a small commission that helps pay for our work—and at no cost to you. The price is the same as if you went directly to the site.


Our Promise To Readers

Our editors carefully choose both the products we link to and the retailers that sell them. Affiliate links do not factor into our editorial coverage other than to make it easier for you, our readers, to get the best of the West. If a manufacturer or retailer has paid for any editorial placement on our website, it is marked as Sponsored Content.

We will continue to share stories that celebrate Western life. We have a simple goal: to give readers like you the Western content you love and the best experience possible.
