Will Poon Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 I'm wanting to buy some nice shirts to wear for shooting, are there any particular brands to avoid or brands that you can reccomend as the prices can vary a lot depending the brand name ? I tend to keep my clobber in good nick so must last wear and tear. Or would the same designs in your high street stores like next or marks and Spencer's be the same?

rimfire4969 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Best shooting shirt I have is a Le Chameau one, it has a button down collar, I have worn mine to death over the last 2 years. Bad point is they are blinking expensive. Most Le Chameau dealers online seem to stock them. http://www.sportingkit.co.uk/wa/1/63/2469-Woodbridge-Shirts.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyb79 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) I've got some nice ones from a website called equestrian clearance. The shirts are Hac-tac brand and despite the price tag of around a tenner are actually really nice. Had mine a couple of years and been out doing all sorts of shooting, dog training, picking up etc and they're as good now as when new.

fielddweller Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you are wanting long sleeved tattersall check then Barbour or le chameau are good and last we'll.I've had a Barbour that must have been washed 50times and still looks great.

Will Poon Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Thanks so far, the ones I see around my neck of the woods are Barbour and Musto I'll have a look at le chameau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo33 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Go online and look up john cotton. By far the best shirts I have come across in ages. Better quality than musto, less money. Don't shrink anything like the others when washed, not made like you have a huge belly, and a decent length, especially on the sleeve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malantone Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Have alook at some of John Norris of Penrith gear. There can be some bargains at times. Blackpowder bought some cheap tattersals from Norris`s never again first wash and the collars wouldn`t iron flat. I now wear Musto never had a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Tried Norris and champion shirts pilled up and collars went sagged first or second wash. Just got 4 Joseph Turner shirts and they look good reserve judgement as their only 6 months old but wearing ok. OF I feel Viyella are going off the boil my last one of their shirts the collar worn out in a year and half. My fathers got some of their shirts that are nearly 20 years old.

OJW Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Tattersall check for the pattern, Barbour or Le Chameau for the brands, mine are all Barbour though. I got one second hand off ebay very cheaply. It was from an ex boarding school pupil so must have had a lot of day to day use and been treated badly however was still in very good condition. L with a 15.5 inch collar. Good buy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therealchucknorris Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Have 3 Viyella shirts that must be knocking on ten years old and they still look good. Surprised to see some quality country check in Charles Tyrwhitt recently so I had to buy one whilst I was in there - all my work shirts come from there and this one didn't disappoint either. Decent shirts with accurate fitting to neck, chest and arm length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
