  Brilliant top. Heard mixed reviews of these since production moved to China but I can honestly say I can see no difference in quality between this and original NZ made ones. Lovely garment, warm on a cold day, but perfect for a summers evening when the sun goes. Been worn daily since purchasing. Love it.

  Being from New Zealand we have finally purchased what we were looking for. High quality and stylish for all weathers, also a speedy delivery thank you. Would definitely recommend this retailer.

  Excellent quality, durable shirt. Be advised that the fit is very generous and quite long in the body.

  Just sublime, I wear it as an outer layer in all but the most outrageous of downpours, and it just gets on with the job. The only weakness is the efficiency of the material in shedding water leads to the wrists becoming saturated, if it's cold out then it can leave your hands a bit chilly. Easily fixed with a pair of Hestra or army surplus gloves dependant on budget. The army surplus are doing an admirable job for me. Biggest selling point would be how silent this top is, whether you're interested in wildlife or just sick of the noise of your arms grazing your torso In Gore Tex, this will be a revelation.

  I am very pleased with this item. Ideal mid layer. Only gripe is that the zip could be slightly longer, just to aid putting the shirt on.

  I had been after one of these for a while and after finally taking the plunge, I can say that it exceeded all my expectations. The shirt is comfortable and robust and not only keeps me warm and dry, but also seems to do a great job of regulating my temperature when I would normally start to overheat. As for the sizing, I would suggest that if you want to wear it as an outer layer then go for the size you would normally wear for a coat/jumper as it will comfortably accommodate 2 layers underneath. If you want it as a mid-layer, the opt for a size down for a more tailored fit. I'm 6'3' and a medium build and would usually go for a large or extra large size. I chose a large to wear as an outer layer and it fits perfectly. All in all, an awesome shirt and the usual impeccable service from Woodlore to get it here.

  Literally have worn it every day to every type of event. It’s been every where from camping, to wine tasting, to work and shopping. It’s warm and comfy. I Just absolutely love it!

  Purchased for my husband, I was worried about the fit. Excellent quality, the fit was comfortable, roomy and allowed a full range of movement without constricting but without looking baggy. Nice and wide at the shoulders and long down the back. Warm and light. It will be worn in the forest and offshore sailing. Service from the Woodlore online shop was simple, quick and delivery was fast. Very pleased all round. Thank you.

  I’ve been looking forward to getting one of these for a while and didn’t disappoint! It is very well made, warm, water resistant and should do well as a work jacket for working in the woods. Sizing is a bit odd, but I knew that. I bought my usual size, medium to make sure the sleeves were long enough as I’m tall. Glad I did, but it’s a bit wide for me though as I’m quite thin. I wasn’t expecting a tailored fit though! I only buy natural fabrics now so great to be able to get this and Woodlore was the cheapest, too.
