Whaaaaat! Western shirt - tight fitting cotton plaid, sometimes with press studs. Flannel shirt - made with flannelette cotton (which is thicker) or wool, worn looser with ordinary buttons.
Two different style of shirts.

Today, I heard someone refer to a flannel shirt as a âwestern shirtââŠI had not heard that one before.

I grew up hearing âwestern shirtâ, another term was a Miller Shirt as that was the popular brand. But then it had to have pearl snaps. I expect flannel shirts have buttons.
Well I asked about it, and they meant âwestern suburbsâ so I was like âŠohh snap!
They are clearly not western suburbs natives. Anyone who is would know the official uniform is adidas, hoodies, and fancy sneakers.
oh
