Swanndri

December 8th, 2008

When a Kiwi talks about a Swanndri you can almost see tears in his eyes. Woven from 100% pure NZ wool and weatherproofed using their ninety year old secret technique. The Bush Shirt is cut extra long with a generous side vent for ease of movement. Simplicity is key. There are no zippers in the time tested design. The Bush Shirt relies on a lace up front opening and button cuffs in addition to a buttoned chest pocket.

Swanndri Bush Shirt

Available in sizes Small – 3X in Olive, Charcoal, Navy and Red w/Black check, or Blue w/Black check. At one time Swanndri Bush Shirts were actually available in NZ DPM.

The Bush Shirt is available online from Swanndri.

Soldier System Daily – The Admin Stuff

December 8th, 2008

Soldier Systems Blog Logo

If you want to write for Soldier Systems Daily its pretty simple. Just contact the Editor with your article idea. Seriously, that’s all you have to do. Generally, we want an article that is a couple of paragraphs long and answers the basic who, what, where, when, why, and how. Pictures are also helpful but make sure you have the permission of the owners. We are happy to give you a by-line but since thus far, this is a non-wealth generating pursuit, there will be no payment. However, so far everyone has wanted to keep it anonymous. One caveat for vendors, we will happily post press releases but the impact is much greater if someone checks out your product and writes an article on it.

Interested parties can contact Soldier Systems Daily at admin@soldiersystems.net.
