Western Snap Shirts

Western Snap Shirts is the main collection at Roper's Clothing in Helen, Georgia: men's western shirts closed with pearl snaps instead of buttons, in cotton, corduroy, denim and stretch chambray, for anyone who wants the western cut without the costume. Most of the collection is short-sleeve cotton with a straight hem drawn to be worn untucked; the long-sleeve pieces bring corduroy, denim and embroidery to the same snap-front shape.

Patterns run from plaid and stripe to floral and graphic print, each on a ground chosen to keep the shirt wearable on an ordinary day: sand, cadet, olive, gold and black rather than anything loud. Solid pieces carry their interest in the cloth, whether that is washed corduroy with diamond snaps or all-cotton denim that softens with wear. Every shirt here runs S through XXL.

For hot months, reach for the short-sleeve cotton shirts and let the print or plaid be the only pattern in the outfit. For cooler evenings the corduroy and denim pieces go over a plain tee, open or snapped to the collar. Prices sit between $16.99 and $74.99, shipping is free on every order, and returns are accepted within 30 days. Start with Western Snap Shirts and the rest of a wardrobe falls into place around them.
