The best shirt you'll ever have
As a natural extension to the Wool Flannel Shirt lineup, we made a bit heftier and solid-color one and simply decided to call it the Wool Field Shirt. This wool shirt is the nightmare of low cost & low-quality superbrands. This shirt you probably only have to buy once, it's so well made. Damnit! Is this good for business?
No planned obsolescence here!
We made this shirt simple, sturdy, and sensible: there's a pair of regular breast pockets large enough for most phones. The inside of the cuffs and collar are made of a cotton-polyester blend for durability and comfort. The hem can be tucked in or worn outside of the pants, while the cuffs can be opened and the sleeves rolled up.
This shirt works in chillier weather or as a warm layer under a shell jacket and even feels pretty cuddly when wet. You'll learn to love it.
Fabric and care
The fabric is made of 80% recycled wool and 20% Polyamide (200 g/m2). Wash at 30° C / 86° F, and hang to dry. The use of wool care products is advisable but not mandatory. Rarely do you indeed need to wash this glorious shirt, as the large wool content keeps it odor-free pretty well, and just airing out is usually enough.
Sizing
We have listed first the easy size, then the user's recommended measurements: user height and chest circumference. The cut is pretty straight.

Paita ulos paketista ja ensitunnelmat paidasta:
Materiaali on tosi kivan tuntuista pehmeää villakangasta. Ja nimenomaan pehmeää ja taipuisaa paitakangasta, eikä sarkatyyppistä kankeaa peltiä. Paksuudeltaan ehkä keskiverto puuvillaflanellin luokkaa. Ihoa vasten villa kutittelee hieman, mutta ei ainakaan omaan nahkaan liian häiritsevästi. Pitkähihainen alupaita toki ratkaisee asian.
Kangas ominaisuuksiltaan on joko hyvä tai huono juttu käyttötarkoituksesta riippuen. Jos luulit saavasi tuhdin, jopa takista käyvän villakuoren, petyt. Jos taas hakusessa on lämmin flanellipaidan, välikerroksen, paitatakin tai viileän kesäillan pitkähihainen, on materiaali juuri loistavaa.
Äkkiseltään kangas vaikuttaa ilmavalta ja varmasti hengittää hyvin, tosin tuulen pitävyyden kanssa voi olla niin ja näin.
Työn jälki kokonaisuudessaan vaikuttaa erinomaiselta. Ompeleet ovat laadukkaan oloisia, eikä ohitikkauksia tms ainakaan omasta kappaleesta löytynyt.
No miksi sitten 4 tähteä täyden 5 sijaan?
Syy on leikkaus. Itse valitsin 112cm rinnanympäryksellä (181cm/92kg) XL regular koon ohjeen mukaisesti. Jokseenkin harteikkaana koko osui hartiaseudun, käsien ja selän osalta nappiin. Kerrankin paita, joka istuu hartioista hyvin, ei kinnaa selästä ja käsiä kelpaa ojennella ilman, että hihansuut nousevat kyynärpäihin.
Leikkausta kehutaan melko suoraksi, mutta omasta mielestäni se ei enää voisi olla suorempi. Itsellä paita jää alaosastaan armottomasti liian leveäksi, jopa lepattavaksi. Etenkin takaosa pönkittää seistessä taaksepäin, koska "ylimääräistä" kangasta on niin paljon.
Ja ei, kyse ei ole siitä, että haluaisin paidan olevan slimfit, vaan paita tuntuu suorastaan levenevän kainaloista alaspäin. Helmasta itse hieman kaventamalla paidasta saa varmasti toimivan, jotta pysyy tuulikin poissa paidan alta. Toisaalta myös vatsakkaat uskaltavat varmasti tilata sopivan paidan pelkän rinnanympäryksen perusteella.
Toinen puute leikkauksessa on se, että käsiä ylös nostaessa muu paita tuntuu nousevan mukana. Ehkä aikanaan mk2 -malliin voisi leikkausta vielä hieman hioa.
Vihreä väri on kuitenkin mukavan murrettu ja villakangankaan tekstuuri pääsee paidassa oikeuksiinsa. Pienistä leikkauksen puutteita huolimatta ensivaikutelma paidasta on oikein hyvä. Pienellä muokkauksella lienee oiva syyspaita.

I liked the idea to get a re-engineered high quality shirt, shipping to Austria was very fast and the wool short exceeded my expectations.
It is definitly classes better tahn the original, perfect tailored and offers a kind of retro look. Not itching or with or without shirt,
perfect material, not too stiff but not to thin, i ordered XL and it fits perfect to me (1.88cm, 95 kg); the only problem was that my Wife
took it immediatly away from me as she liked the shirt as well.
She intends to the shirt for hiking / outside in late autoum and early spring.
Great work Varusteleka !!

Työn jälki on hyvää ja kangas on erittäin mukavaa päällä.
Yksi 0,5 tähteä lähti oikeastaan vaan sen vuoksi, että kuvittelin tilatessa kankaan olevan tönkömpää sarkaa. Nyt paita menee erinomaisena välikerroksena ja päällikerroksena jos ei tuule. Sattuma kuitenkin omassa tapauksessa oli onnellinen, mutta kuvauksen perusteella tilatessa tuskin olen ainoa joka ajoi samaan miinaan.

Side pockets would make this shirt something that its not meant to be. I prefer the ability to tuck in the shirt. A non-tactical, outdoor wool jacket with appropriate pockets would be awesome though.

No side pockets, but maybe mama can sew some on? Get creative.
I do not own the plaid flannel, still want to by one. Since the price is the same, my guess is that the shirts have the same thickness. The difference between both is style.
It is a fair bit thicker. I own both. With a cotton t-shirt, the flannel is ok in a room with 20oC or so, while this one makes it comfortable for me down to 16oC. Of course totally subjective, but just trying to illustrate the 4-5oC difference in 'comfort'.
Hi Tim!
The collar is a little bigger compared to the Flannel version, but not much. On medium size, the collar is 42cm (16.5")
The sleeve length is the same as in the sizing chart. They are very long!
I'm interested by buying several of your Sarma Wool Frield Shirts, but also Light Wool Check Shirts as well as Wool Flannel Shirts. However I ALWAYS have an issue with tops: sizing!
A little about myself:
-I'm 180 cm tall & I weight ~93 kgs with an athletic physique (flat belly, chest circumference of 111/114 cm depending on how tight I measure, quite broad shoulders)
- I like to have my shirts a little (little) fitted when it is possible, notably for layering. However, normal fit is ok.
- I was born on... Oh wait, it is not relevant. New pigs are not supposed to waste your time!
According to you, should I go for:
- Regular M (I'm concerned that it could be too little, notably for shoulders and probably chest)?
- Regular L?
- Regular XL (recommended by your calculator, but is seems very large on the chest area)?
Terveisiä Ranskasta rakkaat suomalaiset ystäväni, ja kiitos :)
