Särmä Wool Field Shirt

You take the Bundesheer M-1975 field shirt, make a few tiny alterations and change the material to wool. Thus the greatest shirt known to man is born. Works anywhere from dark forests to wedding parties, or wedding parties in dark forests like we mostly have in Finland.

• A straightforward field shirt
• 65/30/5 % wool/polyester/other blend
• Fabric made in Italy, shirt manufactured in Estonia

The best shirt you'll ever have

As a natural extension to the Wool Flannel Shirt lineup we made a bit heftier and solid colour one and simply decided to call it the Wool Field Shirt. This shirt is the nightmare of low cost & low-quality superbrands: made in Estonia (our Southern neighbour), while the fabric comes from Italy, and the end price being way cheaper than with most similar shirts. What's worst, this shirt you probably only have to buy once, it's so well made. Damnit! Is this good for business?

Available colours are black and stonegray olive.

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 trousers, while the cuffs can be opened and the sleeves rolled up.

This shirt works as is 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 65 % recycled wool, 30 % polyester and 5 % other fibres (estimate of the unknown fibres among the recycled materials). Wash at 30 degrees Celsius, hang to dry. Use of wool care products advisable but not mandatory. Rarely you indeed need to wash this glorious shirt, as the large wool content keeps it odour-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.

In the chart below you can see the actual measurements taken directly from the shirt itself: chest circumference, back length from base of the collar to the hem and sleeve length from shoulder seam to cuff. The measurements below are NOT the recommended user's measurements, but measurements of the garment itself.
