When you're out in the wilderness you often have to depend on yourself, simply because there is no-one else around. So it is imperative to have gear that you can rely on. With this in mind, Swazi believe that there is no better, or more versatile a shirt, than the Back 40.

Made from a heavyweight polar fleece, the Swazi Back 40 is a rugged, dependable, no-nonsense bush shirt. It features a long-cut tail to keep your back warm while working hard, a high zip-up collar for extra comfort, domed cuffs and two spacious chest pockets for your kit and valuables.

Being a fleece garment, the Back 40 has the benefits of being extremely lightweight and quick-drying. In very cold or wet weather, the Back 40 Shirt is an ideal garment to be worn underneath the Swazi Tahr Anorak.

This particular Back 40 Shirt is a modified version that is exclusive to Woodlore, following field testing and adjusting by Ray Mears. The key alteration is the addition of a polar fleece hood, helping you to see out those extra cold days or long nights around the campfire. As with all collaborations between Swazi and Ray Mears, the Hooded Back 40 Shirt features the exclusive-yet-subtle Ray Mears 'Snowshoe' logo on the right chest pocket.

Woodlore are proud to be working in conjunction with Swazi Clothing, a company who pride themselves on creating the world's most durable outdoor clothing. For more information on the Swazi Clothing company, please visit our Meet The Suppliers pages.
