HB's desire to make the Gaucho Snapshirt is one of the reasons they started Howler Brothers in the first place. They wanted to transform the vintage western shirts of the past into something technical and wearable in everyday life while maintaining a little of their quirky nature and penchant for unique, embroidered artwork. They succeeded in a big way and now our Gaucho is regarded as THE technical embroidered western shirt. For spring 2021, they upgraded the fabric to a lightweight, quick drying cotton-poly blend with a touch of stretch. They kept all your other favorite features like cooling mesh-lined vented back yoke, pleated chest pockets, pearl snaps, and totally unique embroidery from the Howler design minds.
