Keep an eye on the Swanndri.nz.co site as well.
I have a couple of their bushshirts, just got a Ranger Extreme in Olive/brown check that looks to be real good. I usually watch for a sale and order it then. Factor in the exchange and the clothing becomes quite reasonable. It is the same stuff that Too Short used to sell, they no longer make the camo. The weave is similiar to Grey Wolf, not as heavy as the KOM. Unbelievably water repellant. I like mine alot.

Not to go against BIGRIVER, but Gray Wolf is not the only one who custom orders wool. Sleeping Indian custom made my coat to fit me. They also custom made my pullover shirt. That may be the one you might want to look at. It's great for midweather.

love the KOM, or any of those stated above...don't wash them, unless you really need to. Just air them out. Blood flakes off, dirt falls off, etc. Just change before you get gory or something.

Gray Wolf Woolens are the top of the line for me. I've had Filson and they were very good. I have a KOM coat and it's been very good as well. I like the Gray Wolf the best. The quality of the sewing is better and I like the ability to have it custom made to my size and with options. My friend Roger Norris who I've hunted with for 5 years now in the November Shrewhaven camp uses some Filson product and he really likes it.

I have day one and GW-both are absolutely excellent, but for the money, the day one is far superior.
