From:Greg

Super comfy and looks rad. Just wish it also came in a double thick version for those extra cold winter days.

From:Gavin Bamber

Absolutley fantastic garment, a real woodsmans shirt, always wear it camping out in the woods

From:Chris Headrick

It was love at first sight when I first saw this unique jacket over 17 years ago in Sandpoint, Idaho. It has been my winter jacket ever since. I get loads of complements because it is so rare in the United States. I love it.

From:Alexander Booth

This is my third Bushshirt in 30years - my kids pinch them. Whilst it seems thinner than the old ones it is still as warm as I remember. They are worth EVERY cent. I love them, you cannot fault them & they seem to last forever. At least I now own a new one - son keep my old one.

From:weta

The Rolls Royce of bush kit, mine saddly died on me over the weekend and now I have to break in a new one... The last one I had was just over 15 years old, fond memories of teh old girl, but looking to teh future with a new one, cheers swandri.

From:Wade Hodgson

My favorite thing to wear in the bush or ice fishing. It looks good and is very warm. One of my better purchases. Can't go wrong with this one.

From:Colin

Can't beat this for throw on comfort and warmth, in all but the coldest weather. Always keep mine in the truck for when mother nature has her unexpected spew sessions!

From:Whitney Wade

Bought my Swanni in Christchurch in 1994 on layover headed for the ice. Since then it has been to the South Pole, North Pole, crossed the Chugach and Mulchatna Ranges and circled the globe several times on adventure. Now it lives on the farm in Missouri and still working after 18 years! Great Product!!!

From:Josh Meain

Had this since a teenager and used it on the farm everyday. Best thing to have when you are outdoors.

From:Phil

A Original Kiwi icon still among the Best!

From:Sean

Great shirt, works well in tandem with a lightweight sleeping bag to keep your pack lighter overall. Great to wear around the campfire, or while chopping wood. Get too hot in it while walking though. Would definitely recommend, wears really hard so will last me many more years!

From:sika stalker

absolutely brilliant bush shirt. super comfortable (once you get used to the wool feeling) breathes really well, extremely warm. extremely hard wearing (mine's over 30 years old, bought second hand) i use this bush shirt all he time, it's just so super warm and cosy. mine's kept me warm on a tramp in arthur's pass which went around -20. these bush shirts are worth every cent. fantastic product. looking forward to buying another fantastic quality swanndri product, cheers.

From:Linus Nilsson

super!

From:Paul Appleton

Still the same, good quality swanni, but was disappointed that the lining wasn't sewn in like my 25yr old one was.

From:Brendan

Nothing keeps you warmer on a freezing southern winter morning, milking the cows, than a woolly swanny!

From:Lynette Carpenter

You cannot go wrong, every man needs at least one of these! The whole process of buying online was very easy and while this one fitted I could return it if it was an incorrect size, making it a worry free purchase.

From:Tari Ambrosoli

My last Swanni lasted me well over 30 years before it 'fell' off me bit by bit. I know one will last me the duration. The BEST way to keep warm and dry in the colder months

From:Michelle Ede

We bought this for a present for a friend. He says its perfect for his job as a farmer in Southland and wondered how he ever managed without one before now.

From:J Sinclair

A solid, simple and honest product. Did me proud in the winter of Northern Ontario and will do me so again in the England's.

From:paul parsons

One of the best garments I have ever owned. It gives the cold wet weather here on our coast on the the best fights old man winter has ever seen. My friends are very envious when we are on outings and they find out how comfortable I am in my Swanndri.

From:rachel macpherson

only coat i can rely on to keep me warm when im working outside in the winter..

From:James Aten

Traveled to New Zealand to get my swani, keeps the cold out and blocks the wind. some of the best wool clothing I have ever buoght.

From:Helen Zeale

I bought the Swandri for my boyfriend to replace his 16 yr old Swandri and he was so pleased it will make lambing far warmer. However I think the old Swandri will not be thrown away ever...

From:Matt Sparrow

I used this amazing bushshirt in Canada and was more than satisfied with its ability to not only keep me warm on the ski fields during one of their snowiest winters but also its ability to stop the wind from chilling me to the bone whilst hanging on the ski lifts. Constantly recommend Swanndri to mates and people asking for outdoor kit. Looking forward to testing some more of your kit out in Waiouru this year. Keep up the quality and I'll keep buying it.

From:PK

Can't go past an original swanni. Warm and rugged, good length, and the hood is handy. Only downside for me is the lining on the inside, it's not stitched on the bottom which means sometimes I put my arm in between the liner and outer when putting it on.

From:Renee Suszko

I have had my bushshirt for a few years now, it is still in great condition! So well made and high quality wool. I can see it is going to last for years to come.

From:Cameron Hooper

This is the best bush shirt you ever need to own, It's great for when im out in the bush high up on the hills hunting deer, keeps me warm and dry .It's worth every cent I sent on it, I highly recommend this to anyone who loves the great outdoors

From:eRNEST wEBB

Bought 1960 still in great condition one small tear deerstalking Farming could not have done without my Swanni

From:jean
