Calling all cowboys… You are probably already aware, but
just in case you are not, here is a little information about the Barstow shirt
from Levi’s.
The Western
Shirt is a Western wear style that became popular among cowboys, ranchers
and other wearers. It’s defined by a stylized yoke on the front and back as
well as distinct pockets, such as “Barstow” (a Levi Strauss & Co. term for a
single-yoke pocket) or “Sawtooth” (another Levi Strauss & Co. term for a
double-yoke pocket). Western Shirts typically have snap closures instead of
buttons to minimize need for repair among workers.
Barstow Western: Worn by cowboys and ranch hands in the
1930s, Levi’s® iconic Barstow Western shirt has little choice but to transcend
the West. It’s become a wardrobe classic with details like a traditional Western
yoke and a snap-front closure.
