Big fan of the remarkable brand ones. I find them to be thicker and a bit more thought into some parts (like the lining on the chore coat style rover)

Great video. Have just recently purchased a Ranger and a Mosgiel. I have also discovered some fantastic woolen gear made by (MKM) Manawatu Knitting Mill, their 36.6 Wool and Possum Jersey is amazing!

@southernlandsolo7839 Год назад

Thanks for the tip. I will check them out if they are still operating.

Really nice to see a video from you Dave. I hope you are doing well. Wool makes great clothing. I've got base, mid and outer layers which are all wool. Can't go wrong. Cheers

@southernlandsolo7839 3 года назад

Thanks bro. Agreed, can't go wrong with wool.

Lots of bushshirts! Great detailed information. Thanks!

@southernlandsolo7839 3 года назад

Thanks Hauki. Stay warm over there bro.

Thanks for the vid mate. Some great clothing there. Swanndri is very popular here in Australia. I love using wool products in the bush. Hard wearing, warm and will last a life time. ATB

@southernlandsolo7839 3 года назад

Thanks bro. I notice you use Swanndri yourself. Great gear

@ReviloNZwalks 3 года назад

This is fantastic Dave. I share your enthusiasm here. Funny as I just brought out my wool gear for a look as regrettably I haven't used it much lately. You might be one of my competitors on TradeMe lol. Over the moon with what I have: Swanndri original bush shirt, collared with 3/4 sleeve - TradeMe $11. Swanndri Rover - Opshop $10. Egmont shirt (Ranger style) - Opshop $20. Cheers

@southernlandsolo7839 3 года назад

Awesome deals bro!! I need to get some shopping tips from you lol.

Very helpful video. I also use vintage wool clothing like old USA made Woorich. I don't yet have a Swanndri. I've been looking, and don't find any shorter shirt-jac type garments. Have they made these in the past of New Zealand origin and with a double layer of wool on the shoulders and buttons all up the front? Thanks

@southernlandsolo7839 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching. The shirt/jacket you are describing sounds similar to a Swanndri garment that I think they stopped making last season (Kiaraki Shacket). There are still some available on line but possibly not many left. I have put the link below. Hope this helps. Dave www.swanndri.co.nz/kiaraki-v3-wool-shacket-glacier-check.html

Great video mate, definitely will keep an eye out on the Rover. Also do I hear a bit of Southland in ya?

@southernlandsolo7839 Год назад

Thanks very much bro. The accent is a little more distant. Bermuda lol.

@kingsolomon8946 Год назад

When I was in Nz I coveted Swan dri clothing but after they moved to China I lost my taste for them

@southernlandsolo7839 Год назад

I think they did lose some support when they did the move. On the upside, it has allowed them to greatly expand their product range.

@kingsolomon8946 Год назад

@@southernlandsolo7839 has quality dropped ? Or are they still made to a high standard?

@southernlandsolo7839 Год назад

@@kingsolomon8946 The wool on the Mosgiel and Original Bush Shirts seems to be of a lighter quality. Still a very good outer garment but seems to not be as tough as the pre-twenty first century Bush Shirts. Their other garments all seem to be hard wearing and hold up well against the competition.
