The Twodogs Lionheart Forest Shirt

[Twodogs]

Morning all

Finished this yesterday "The Twodogs Lionheart Forest Shirt"

Made from vintage cold war fabric

The wool is surplus used in the making of the British combat shirt know to most as the KF shirt light and hard wearing and the cotton fabric was used in the making of the jungle OG trousers from the 60 and 70s ...

I would consider this a fantastic part of a wool layer system as a midlayer .



Rear view



The arm has a closer fit at the cuff than the "Twodogs" but the same loose fit as the "Twodogs" on the body giving loads of arm movement



Splash of cotton on the hood



The neck piece is cotton



Kanga pouch is cotton



Same as the " Twodogs " the three pockets behind the main pocket and lanyard line









Not making it yet but thought i would show it off

Thanks for looking

I liked when you posted it elsewhere Cliff and I like it even more now, it looks like it's a cracking bit of kit

F*** me it's a way of re-connecting with 'Shirts, Hairy' and 'drawers, cellular, jungle green'. Like some others have said, it's made me come over all nostalgic. Wore a KF shirt for 20 years and it didn't do me any harm...at least, not after the first 2 years and repeated washings! I also feel strangely drawn to wanting one...
