This functional shirt does exactly what it's supposed to – keeps you warm, wicks away sweat and fits like a second skin. It's an original piece from British gear, designed as a base layer under a uniform. No frills, just an honest piece of clothing that works. Whether you're working outdoors or just don't want to freeze during an autumn excursion, you can rely on this piece.
The British army didn't make this shirt for show. It's meant to keep you warm, retain its shape and not be a nuisance during movement. Soldiers wore it under DPM95 camouflage – and if it could handle military training in British weather, it can withstand a Czech winter. It fits snugly to the body, doesn't ride up, doesn't press anywhere and doesn't restrict movement.
The Airtex-style fabric wicks moisture away from the body, keeping you dry even during exertion. Inside, there's a soft fleece lining that warms you almost immediately after putting it on. Plus, there are elastic cuffs, flat seams and a shaped back, so everything fits as it should and nothing rides up. The material is both sturdy and pleasant – it withstands pulling, rubbing and repeated washing.
This isn't a replica or cheap imitation. It's a military original – used but fully functional. It might have a snagged thread or a slightly different shade of green, but it's still the same piece worn by British soldiers. Some pieces are almost new, others show signs of storage. In any case, you get an honest thermal shirt with a military history.
