Looking for a Simple, Functional Shirt

Hi all;

I am looking for shirts that fit the following specifications: Is long-sleeved,
snaps (instead of buttons or anything else), has two pockets (with flaps over
them that are secured with snaps as well), made from a light-weight material
(as I live in south Texas where it gets plenty hot indeed), and is inexpensive.

In the past, I've been getting shirts that fit these specifications from Walmart for
a very good price (like $12):

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Men-s-OP-L...Shirt/14033959

The only thing that I don't like about them is that they are plaid (classified as
"western shirts").

I would like to have shirts much like those, but in solid colors.

Does anyone have any suggestions for shirts from other sources that will work for me?

THANKS!!!

he doesnt want a western shirt. he wants a shirt that is "Is long-sleeved,

I don't recommend Old Navy - their shirts are EXTREMELY baggy and don't fit well at all.

Sounds like a 'western' shirt to me. Then again, what the **** do I know.
