Swazi jacket on RM Wild Britain

[Moosemap]

Hi everyone,
I just started to watch the first part of RMs Wild Britain DVD and my eyes caught sight of a rather short jacket, I think Swazi made, with diagonal side pockets and a buttoned breast pocket. Went to the Swazi site and the only thing I found was some Windstopper Jacket that could have fitted the description.

Anybody got any idea what kind of jacket this could be???

Thanks

Heinz

Which series and episode was it?

Hi Shewie,

it is Wild Britain with Ray Mears, the "Deciduous Forest" series.

Now I found the Windriver Jacket by Swazi (http://www.swazi.co.nz/Online-Shop/Wind-Proof/Windriver-Jacket/), that could be the one, only the colours and the cover of the zip do not fit the picture...

Phil,

I thought about these too, but the shirt/jacket is a full zip one with a prominent breast pocket and diagonal handwarmer pockets, perhaps made from a Windstopper or similar fleece and the collar is doubled with something in camouflage, and it got a hood...

BTW, took out the Wapiti today and it felt soooo good...

Just been having a look but I've no idea which coat that is, it might have been a one off made to his spec ...

Thank you Rich for putting the vid here,

the more often I watch it I think it is the Windriver Shirt, only in Tussock Green, a color I really like...

Could it be the Klondyke

Hi John,

I guess it is not the Klondyke, as the pockets are completely different

Here is the Windriver

and here the Klondyke

Have a look at Stoney Creek's Long Hooded Bushshirt. Not full zip but otherwise very similar and less than £70. Superb garment
