LWVLongShirts_gallery1

Kitanica’s new LWV (Lightweight Vented) Long Sleeve is constructed from a combination of 4.5 oz. poly/cotton ripstop and antimicrobial moisture managing A.M.Y./Sorbtek Mesh, the later of which is located behind/under the arm as well as the gusseted back for breathability. Storage options include left and right angled and pleated front chest pockets, with pen tubes on the left pocket. The elbows feature double layer reinforcement, and the garment is bar-tacked at the stress points and features double needle top-stitching.

Available in Black, sizes SM-2XL. Made in the USA.

    Love their stuff, own their sweater. But $112 for a long sleeve shirt?!? Way too high priced

    It’s for the Fort Living Room commandos and couch operators. Gucci-kit nothing more.

      Yes, you can think of it as adventure clothing or performance clothing or outdoor clothing. It wasn’t designed as a military uniform but it is Made in America which accounts for the cost.

    Somebody thinks a sternum strap won’t interfere with the pockets. Said pockets are positioned so low that it would be more appropriate for a nursing mother.

    The seams don’t appear to be ruck strap friendly, and the underarm gussets appear bulky and potentially a chafing source.

    I could be all wrong about that, but, black? Really? Ninja.

      They build what their customers buy. I can tell you aren’t a customer. I’m curious what your motivation is.
