Product description

A nice yet affordable basic green turtleneck shirt from Austria. Pretty similar to the BW one but with a heartwarming terrycloth inside In very good condition for being military surplus.

Features

These long-sleeved shirts are green and feature a tall zippered turtleneck collar. The hem is quite a bit longer at the back, so the wind will not bite you in your ass that easily. Use it on its own or on top of an undershirt. This batch has shirts at least from the 2000s and 2010s, and at least from two manufacturers. Therefore the materials, color shades, and fabric thicknesses vary to some extent. Some are more sage green and some olive drab, but an interior decorator might give a dozen new exotic names for them and give delightful ideas for combining them with various accessories.

Condition

Used Austrian military surplus. Used but not abused, so these are clean and intact. In other words, quite a nice deal!

Being one of those nerds that always tucks his shirt in, I really appreciated the extra length of these shirts. Form fitting and comfortable material. Typically wear this over a t-shirt and under a sweater or heavier button-up when its a bit chilly out.

I think I will order some more of these. The very first one I had, I got from a local surplus supplier in person. And I fell in love with it. The only thing they gave me heartbreak was that due to where it was falling apart or starting to at the bottom of the zipper. I recently bought two more from here, and they are literally the best thing ever. They breathe better than a full synthetic long sleeve undershirt, insulate better, and when you zip them up fully they keep your neck warmer. I very well might order another three, so I have a total of six. Maybe one more, so when my original I bought in person falls apart I will still have six. I am part Austrian also, so perhaps I'm a bit biased, but damn I love these.

Mine arrived in used sound condition (one small hole that did not affect utility). Materials, 60% polypropylene, 40% cotton version. As described, tall collar, and "tall" fitting, long sleeves and body length and long drop at back "so the wind will not bite you in your ass that easily" Gear test: Trout fishing with snow in the morning turning to occasional rain and wind 25km gusting to 35km top day air temp 7 degrees celcius. Tall fitting acted to "cover the gaps" in my layering, moisture wicked away from skin, dry and comfortable day. Also, the cotton content has a more comfortable skin feel to me than pure polyprop layers.
