Hey
I want to buy a so called 'ranger shirt', believe that the manufacturer is Swandrii or something?! Is there anyone who has experience with these?
Picture here: http://www.t-shirtshop.dk/print_product.asp?product=13
(The sites danish) Are the shirts good? And for what kind of use?
The viking - that doesnt much look like a ranger shirt to me.
Check out the ones on my site and you will see what they look like and this will give you a good guide.
As for are they any good - yes they are excellent shirts, warm, resonably hard wearing and safe for bushcraft activeties.
Once you have one you will understand why most bushcrafters like them so much - they quickly become old friends.

The shirt pictured on the site looks a lot like half the shirts in my wardrobe.
I live in mine!
Have three and love them - good in cold weather, cool in warm weather here (up to 20C) Cannot imagine life without them. Just saving for a hooded jacket....

I have 2 swanndri's now :-)
The ranger shirt is great for year round use, a great mid layer, or a top layer if its not raining too hard (like it does in wales)
I also own a bushshirt (3/4 length lace up front) which is heavier/thicker with a merino wool lining.... great for autumn/winter or on those cold nights. It sheds water better than my ranger shirt, but is very heavy when soaked right through.
I love em :-)
