Thread: Worth Getting a Swanndri?

@The bomb excuse the skinny model

here it is on a not so skinny model BEFORE it was altered. Great coat before,awesome coat now.

Hey there, I've got a green lace up Swanndri, size XL or 106, had a little use, and has 3 small moth holes. $50 plus postage. And a near new one, full front zip, size M (but a generous fit), $100 plus postage.

I have to say that looked pretty damn tempting....so 3 days ago I ordered a large one
It arrived today so that's a huge plus or service in my book. It's well made, clearly going to be warm and very comfy so I'm impressed.
It fits ok...bit tight around the shoulders so bugger it....just ordered another one in XL.

Good. Their stuff is great. I use it almost exclusively.

Could you send photos of the XL? Definitely sizes L-XL but interested.

Both me and my son have one,might need to get a local seamstress to give it a go.

Moth holes in swanndri's can be disguised by making a circle around them with red dye....great for starting bull shit stories around camp fires.

Do it...you will love it so much more as won't be over heating yet can still zip it up to stay warm.

I've gone full cycle and am now back using an oilskin https://www.outbacktrading.co.nz/col...33281605632045

Recently purchased the Swanndri bush shirt. You just can't beat wool. Tried synthetics and they are second rate.
Used it now fir 4 days cold and windy. Fairly happy with it.
Just a few comments.
Made in NZ would be good.
Couple more pockets would be grouse.
Zipper all the way down would be grouse too.

In the 90s I was poisoning and I wore a LEDA brand copy made in invers had a full length zip and lined with polar fleece round chest area , was the best zip up in wind and rain on paddocks and open up when in the bush shelter so not over heating don't think leda is around now .
