In the rugged old days, thick wool flannel collared shirts were a pretty basic thing, because everything was made of wool anyway - what luxury! Now in the plastic future these are rather hard to come by. We did our part and patched up some of this gaping hole with the Särmä wool flannel shirt.
- A clean, thick flannel shirt
- 70/30 % recycled wool/polyester
- Fabric made in Italy, shirt made in Estonia
There are a lot of spiffy cheap rags of shirts, which "will do", until you try on something real and proper good. The danger after this is that you might raise your standards. This collared shirt is one of those more premium style articles of clothing, so try on at your own risk. All in all, this shirt is nothing short of a miracle: made of Italian wool fabric, sewn in Estonia (it's just South of Finland) and the whole package for this price.
The cut is classic: simple covered breast pockets, stand-up collar, adjustable sleeve cuffs etc., in essence a timeless design fit for work, outdoors and pleasure, and if you get wet in the rain, this will still keep you warmer than a cotton shirt. The shirt comes with one spare button. By the way, the buttons are pretty well sewn on.
Check pattern colours are red-black-gray and green-white-black.
Material and care
Made of 70/30 % wool and polyester. Brushed recycled wool: inside is fluffier while the outside is smoother - very comfortable. The polyester is there just for strength. The content is small enough not to interfere with the wool's properties. Wash in 30 degrees Celsius with wool cycle, hang dry. Usually just airing the shirt out is enough. Use of wool care products recommended but not mandatory.
Sizing
We have listed first the easy size, then user's recommended measurements: user height / chest circumference. These are fitted a tad slimmer on the waist - this merely means they're not as baggy as many others.
In the chart below you can see the actual measurements taken directly from the shirt itself: back length from base of the collar to the hem and sleeve length from shoulder seam to cuff. Chest circumference is not visible on purpose: due to the bellowed back it's difficult to communicate without inciting the customer to lean towards a wrong size. We strongly suggest looking at the drop down menu's recommended measurements, this way you will get the right size. The measurements below are NOT the recommended user's measurements.

A word from the development team
We've been wrestling with this shirt for quite a while but now it's becoming a reality. You could think it's pretty easy to find any fabric in the market but NO, especially when "made in China" wasn't an option; we had to have it made in Europe. We searched far and wide for proper wool flannel with no results, but the answer was closer than we would have ever thought: the same company that makes many of our Särmä TST stuff was able to provide something that filled our fantasies: 70% wool, 30% polyester, our own check style, reasonable minimun ordering amounts. All the trouble was worth it, and now we hope to make something else from this fabric in the future too.

A tad itchy as some noted, but man up and it goes away after 5 minutes of wearing the shirt.

Pienenä kehityskohteena:
Hihan suuaukon mitoitus on aika tiukka, jos on pitkähihainen aluspaita alkaa olla jo ahdistavaa, myös ulkoilu-ellon kanssa on hiukan vaikeaa (Suunto Spartan).
Tämän tyylisessä paidassa, joka puetaan yleensä ei-alimmaiseksi kerrokseksi ja useimmtien ulkoilukäyttöön, voisi hihansuun mitoitaa reilummaksi, koska käyttäjä pystyy kyllä hakemaan tiukkuutta nappeja siirtämällä. Nyt tuo uloin nappi on jo niin reunassa, ettei sitä oikein ole varaa siirtää ulommaksi.

I just switched from all poly gear to merino wool after years. I've been wearing these products everyday for a month now and am very impressed. There is slight pilling but to be expected, but the description is right these products do not take in smells very easily, just take care of your stuff. Varusteleka is PURE GOLD!

No seriously. I wore this shirt almost all winter as a mid-layer. It’s comfy as hell (as long as you don’t wear it directly on your skin), breathable & actually never started to smell even after a month of constant wear. The only downside that I found, was that I constantly had to get it back from my girlfriend.
I would very much appreciate it if you could make a classic red/black one. I’mm not a huge fan of the grey tones on the red one, but I’d definitively love to get another one of those shirts.
