Vintage Levi's Corduroy Western Shirt with 'Canada' Patch

This is a vintage long-sleeve western-style shirt by Levi's, crafted from a medium-wale corduroy fabric in a distinctive forest green or teal green color. The shirt features classic western details including pointed front and back yokes, two breast pockets with pointed flaps secured by snaps, and a full-length front placket with snap closures. The snaps appear to be metal, possibly pearlized or aged brass, with some variation in color visible on a few, suggesting age or wear, for example, one yellow-toned snap is visible. Both breast pockets have the characteristic small red Levi's tab on the left pocket. The cuffs are also snap-buttoned. A prominent embroidered patch, depicting a red maple leaf with the word 'CANADA' in yellow text, is sewn onto the lower-left front panel of the shirt. The corduroy texture is visible throughout, indicating a durable yet comfortable material. The shirt exhibits a moderate level of wear consistent with its vintage nature, including some fading or slight discoloration, particularly around the collar and seams, and a generally softened feel to the fabric. The overall construction appears robust, typical of Levi's quality. This shirt likely dates from the 1970s or 1980s, a period when corduroy western wear was popular. The 'Canada' patch adds a unique personalized or regional touch, suggesting it might have been a souvenir or customized item. No significant tears or repairs are immediately visible, but the fabric does show signs of use and age.
