Shirt, Windproof, TRC, Cierzo, Earth Tone (options)

Descended from the old school classic ‘Zoot Suits’ made from parachute canopy ‘silk’, first created in France in 1944 by SAS troops operating behind enemy lines in advance of the D Day landings. This new incarnation of a military favourite is made in the UK by the same company that produced the silk for those WW2 parachutes. Utilising modern 30D Ripstop Polyester fabric, each shirt weighs less than 175grammes, packs smaller than a ‘jack’ flask, and is supplied complete with fabric matching stuff sack.
