Double Breasted Shirt

[Drusilla]

Is there a special name for the double breasted shirt you often see in cowboy films? They look similar to the military jacket of the period, only using much thinner and lighter materials. John Wayne wears a red one in the film, 'The Searchers'.

I know the ones you mean the Lone Ranger used to wear one too. Showing my age here !
