Thanks for the feedback, all. I checked out S&A and saw this RRL shirt that most resembles what I'm looking for (as long as it's not too heavy):

RRL | BUFFALO DENIM WESTERN SHIRT DARK WASH

Every man needs at least one Western in their wardrobe and this Japanese denim example from RRL ticks all the right boxes for this American classic. RRL's signature details include lasso style stitching at the pockets and a decorative concho button at the neck. Pair this shirt up with denim for...

I'll have to save up a bit, though. I currently have an Uniqlo denim shirt from a few years back that I love, but it's a button-down like the Portuguese Flannel shirts.

TONY shirtmakers has a nice western shirt if you're looking for a dark wash. not sure if greg and co will restock for this fall but i think you can do special orders too.

Thanks guys. I tend to like more modern cuts vs repro even though I love the patina on that one, dieworkwear. The APC sounds good too. I don't want to spend too much time hunting. Think this lee.com version is worth a try? APC have one but in super light wash with quilting, not really my thing. This one looks like Fumma's pretty cool, but I kinda prefer the 101 design.

I'm very happy with my Acne Pass.

I like my Levi’s ones, but this does look good.

Appears that Kapital has a nice one. It appears on Mr. Porter, which is running a 20% off promotion for today only.

Umit Benan and Barbanera both got a bunch of nice western shirts, on sale at the moment too

I had my eye on this, but it's about $10,600 more than I wanted to spend.

KAPITAL - + Bob Marley Appliquéd Embellished Distressed Denim Jacket

KAPITAL's jacket is part of the brand's SS19 collection, which celebrates Jamaican culture, along with reggae legend, Mr Bob Marley. It's made from 14oz pure cotton denim that's dyed a faded blue wash, and appliquéd with colourful patches embroidered with lions, as well as some of the artist's...

if you just want a denim jacket that doesn't have a bunch of design bullshit that drives the prices up by hundreds of dollars, either go with a 100% cotton lee, something from levi's (or even LVC on sale) or one of the cheaper tiered Japanese repro brands, ie TCB

https://www.denimio.com/tcb50sjkt-tcb-50-s-jeanjacket-denim-jkt-type-2nd.html?___store=default this looks great for $189 if you want something raw

or nudie

Billy Nearly Dry - Nudie Jeans

Denim jacket made in rigid denim with dry feel. This look is what we call a first step worn in. The jacket's been rinsed but not washed. 3D effects at sleeves and body. The indigo threads give it a very dark character. But they will fade together with the denim as you wear and wash it.

buying something like this from kapital or even blue blue/pure blue defeats the point...

 

[noob in 89]

Nothing against $200 jackets, but the interwebs fairly overflows with cool vintage for like $30-$50. 80s Polo is good, simple, and not overlarge, while 90s RRL can be found for cheap. (The funny thing is a lot of it is the same as the 80s Polo). Can’t beat 90s denim jackets for that light blue color, too, if that’s your thing.

you (or someone) should buy this geller x levi's jacket in m which is a steal at $150. hard to find these under like $300+. pretty sure lining is removable. very cool one time collaboration from years ago that will only get harder and harder to find.
