Are flannel shirts your thing? They soon will be, if they aren't already! There are lots of spiffy cheap rags out there that are "just fine" until you try something truly good and realize those cheap pieces of shirt weren't that great after all. This button-up shirt is one of those "truly good" items.
- Smart, thick button-up shirt
- Flap chest pockets
- Fabric: 60% recycled wool, 35% polyester, 5% polyamide
We've combined two great things: wool and flannel. The traditional yet comfortable design paired with unbelievably good material make this the shirt you'll want to wear every day when it's even slightly chilly, and then get sad for not being able to wear it when it gets too hot!
In the good old days, shirts like these made of wool fabric were just a regular thing because everything was made of wool – how luxurious! Now in the age of plastics, they're pretty special items, and we're really proud to be able to address this issue.
The shirt features flap chest pockets, a button-down collar, and adjustable sleeve cuffs. It works anywhere, from the shooting range to the Lapland fells and the neighbor's barbecue, and if you get wet in the rain, this will still keep you warmer than a cotton shirt. An extra button is included with the shirt.
Material and care
The fabric is made of 60% recycled wool, 35% polyester, and 5% polyamide. Fabric weight: 220 g/m2 (6.5 oz/m2). Brushed recycled wool: the inside is fluffier while the outside is smoother – very comfortable. The polyester is added just for durability and its amount is small enough not to interfere with the wool's properties. Wash at 30°C / 86°F with a wool cycle, and hang dry. Usually just airing the shirt out is enough. The use of wool care products is recommended but not mandatory.
Sizing
We have listed first the easy size, then the 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 hidden for a purpose: due to the bellowed back it is difficult to communicate without inciting the customer to lean towards the wrong size. We strongly suggest looking at the recommended measurements, this way you will get the right size. The measurements below are NOT the recommended user's measurements, but measurements of the garment itself.

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. All the trouble was worth it and now we hope to make something else from this fabric in the future, too.
Manufactured in the EU
This shirt is made in Lithuania by Vilkma.

They might be great, but they can't read minds. Only orders.

I hate sending things back, so I'll see if I can get my Dad interested in this large shirt. An expensive gift, but I guess that's fine.
I'll try again next month, hopefully I can actually manage to click on the correct size by then.
It is actual flannel with a visible 'fishbone' pattern in the weave if you look closely, and I find the fabric weight is perfect. Not too light but not too thick either. For comparison, I also have a Fjalraven 'Canada Shirt'. I find that one is far too heavy, more like a jacket, while the Sarma one is just perfect.
Hi Jhih, contact our customer service via [email protected], and we can see what can be done.
Size small has a chest width of 54 cm. If you want a fitted flannel, choose size Small Regular. If you want a wider fit, then choose Medium Regular.
