The Swanndri Ranger Shirt is a superb, tough work shirt made from 100% woollen yarn. It has become a staple outdoor garment for Ray and the Woodlore team, thanks to its warmth, quietness, and durability. Just take a look at the cover of the Outdoor Survival Handbook for an idea of how long Ray has been putting Swanndri Ranger Shirts to the test.

In 1913, New Zealand tailor William Broome, frustrated by the country's incessant rain, developed a work shirt with a secret waterproofing. The shirt, made from 100% wool, was fabled for its durability and practicality, quickly becoming the clothing choice of pioneering New Zealanders the length and breadth of the country, its unsurpassed fabric keeping them warm and dry in the winter and cool in the summer. William named the shirt the Swanndri, due to the way that water ran off the wearer's back. To this day the original design remains unchanged and is as relevant to today's outdoorsmen and women as it was almost one hundred years ago.

Sizing: Please note that the Swanndri Ranger Shirt features a very generous fit, which allows plenty of room underneath for extra layers. If you do not like your shirts to be loose-fitting, we recommend that you purchase the next size down. Please bear this in mind when placing your order.

I'd always hankered over one of these and I'm wearing it now. My previous reservations over the weight of the shirt are forgotten. It is light, tough with an incredibly tight weave. it's marvellous, and feels like a second skin. Well, I can tell the world that this is one of the most comfortable garments that I've ever owned. Combined with (at this time of year) my Swazi micro shirt (what a fantastic combo), again sourced through Woodlore (thanks Ray). I simply love it. Thank God for Kiwis. Vincent

Great quality, exactly what I was looking for. Very generous size so plenty of room for a few layers underneath. Good price and fast delivery. Thanks.

Very good, durable and warm shirt. I already had one for work and liked the style and durability, so I purchased another for general use and also as a natural alternative to the modern plastic fleeces.

I'm not usually up for Wool clothing since I live in TX I rarely get to use them anyway. But made a trip to the Ozarks and I was very surprised. These top were comfortable and very warm without being too heavy. May make working in the cold much easier.

Ranger shirt delivered in less than 24 hours despite severe travel disruption. Christened it straight away as mid-layer between a cotton t-shirt and a Swanni Bushshirt for a 2 hour walk in -8C and driving snow courtesy of Storm Emma; result = toasty warm, dry and very happy. Who needs anything else?

The shirt is great. Very warm, robust and looks good too. The delivery went smoothly. At 178 and 75 kg size M fits perfectly.

A large fitting shirt, I am usually a large or xl but the medium is plenty big enough to wear over any base layers, it is a bit itchy as are most woollen garments next to the skin but this will probably lessen with usage and washing. I haven't had chance to wear it as it was bought as a autumn/winter over shirt.
