Well I decided to buy my birthday present about a month early (birthday not until April), and I was a lucky lad! I bought the garments from Bison Bushcraft as I know they're a great company and I love all of the equipment they sell, its high quality and will outlast me! 
The Bush shirt
The Bush Shirt is made from high quality, 100% wool, Islay Tweed. It has a large moleskin lined hand warmer pocket, two chest pockets as well as a really big hood that really protects your head from the elements. The entire inside is also moleskin lined and is so comfortable it lives on me! The hem has an elasticated drawstring and the hood also has a drawstring to cinch it up if needed. The shirt has an 8 eyelet lace up system with a neck baffle, which is comfortable and a great design feature, one that drew me so much to this shirt. It is an extremely durable, well made and excellently well thought out bit of kit. You can tell it was designed by people who know what they're talking about when it comes to the outdoors. The sizes, as specified by Bison are English men's sizes, not skimpy overseas ones, so I bought a medium instead of the usual large and it fits perfectly, with plenty of room for growth and freedom of movement, I'm taller than my dad now so I'm sure it will last me forever! It comes as standard with antler buttons, which are great and give the shirt a really nice finish! It is also an all natural fibre garment, which is something I really believe in for endless reasons. The entire shirt, from materials to construction, is made in the UK, which is important to me as I like to support small businesses and cottage industry wherever I can.

I'm absolutely thrilled with this, its quality, great design and durability are unrivalled in my opinion and I love it!
The Trousers
These trousers are also all made In the UK, are constructed of cotton moleskin and ventile reinforcement patches on the knees. They are incredibly comfortable and durable trousers that are very practical. They have a spacious knife pocket on the right leg and a large cargo pocket on the left, as well as two back pockets and two hand pockets on the front. These are also extremely well made and have drawstring trouser bottoms, which are incredibly useful for fitting on hiking boots and stopping ticks and other beasties getting on your legs! These trousers, coupled with the shirt have barely been of my back since they arrived nearly a week ago! The natural fibres do not smell either so they're perfect for extended wilderness trips!
Here are some photos:
I also have a Snurgle Sack and some Renaissance Wax which I can also say are cracking bits of kit!
Hope you enjoyed the short review on these garments, they're certainly first rate bits of gear that will last forever!
Thanks for reading!
