"SWANNIE’S" ( actually ..SWANNDRI RANGER SHIRTS)

We love swanndri shirts and so have New Zealanders for about 90 years. They are a classic outdoor product worn by people all over the world. The wool is high quality, keeps you warm and sheds water, its durable and will still keep you insulated even if you get a soaking. Handles sparks from the camp fire much better than most man made stuff and, the best test of any product, has remained virtually unchanged since its introduction. They got it right the first time. (Shame we can’t all manage that eh?)

I have had one for years and they’re great, it’s the first item thats thrown on my back, or in my pack, when I head for the hills. Remember though, they make them oversized just incase you want to layer up, so if you are not intending to do that, best buy the size below your normal. When it comes to washing, I hand wash it with warm water and I have had no problems, just remember to lay it flat to dry.

( I handwash it?, OK, my wife takes one sniff of my kag after a hunting trip and hands it right back to me with a packet of soap flakes and a finger pointing to the sink. …….but I refuse to wear them little yellow rubber gloves while I do it, right…and I slop water..)
