British Wool Pullover Shirt with Collar

The shirt is made from 100% wool. The material is described as being similar to original garments. It is a lighter weight wool, comparable to a US Mustard WW2 shirt. The wool is soft and comfortable to wear.

The shirt is described as comfortable and soft, even straight from the package. Any slight itchiness it might have initially can be removed by soaking it in water and allowing it to drip dry. After this preparation, it becomes very comfortable.

This shirt is a reproduction copied from an original item worn by members of H.M. Forces. Wool shirts like this were worn by officers with battledress and saw service on the Northwest Frontier of India and in the Burma jungles. It was also popular among Other Ranks for walking out dress, as it allowed for wearing a necktie.

The shirt can be machine washed on cold. It can also be tumble dried on a cool setting. Washing and drying in this manner can make the shirt softer without changing its size.

The shirt is suitable for reenactments, with one wearer finding it superior to competitors' shirts. It is also ideal for winter Scouting in the U.K., being similar to original Boy Scouts and Rover Scouts shirts. The shirt is also considered classy enough for everyday wear around town, with or without a tie.
