Look at the old Time-Life series 'The Old West' and read 'The Lawmen'.

More specifically, look at the book "The Gunfighters" which contains a chapter entitled "The Man with the Badge."  You will notice that most of the lawmen pictured are wearing "town clothes" except for those photos where they are actually on the trail.  Although it could be argued that they wore their fancy duds for the studio photo. 

Attached below is a listing of all of the volumes in that series, in case there are other aspects that you would like to research.  There's no reason why you couldn't be a lawman who later switched sides to become an outlaw (or vice-versa), or who decided to hang up his guns to become a rancher, storekeeper, or other businessman.  Or maybe even a lawman who maintains a side-gig, since they were not typically well paid at the time.
