Cowboys have to keep one hand on the reins so they had to have a shirt they could button up with only one hand.

You're welcome.

Because "Pearl Button" doesn't sound as cool as "Pearl Snap"

Pearl snaps can be worn for workin', dancin', and even Sunday go to meetin'.

Why would they wait to button up their shirt until already on a horse?

Back in the day, they used to wear leather "clothing" because of the rough work they did (wrestling down calves ) so they fashioned metal snaps to "hold" the clothing together...fast forward to today.

Dang, you beat me to it. Those redneck girls will destroy a shirt when they want it off.
