Hunting shirt

[Goldenstar]

I found I think Equitech do polar fleece hunting stock shirts. I want one of those to try.

I have been known to wear my normal Caldene stretchy stock shirt & stock, then a knitted V neck jumper, then waistcoat, then hunt coat. I do feel the cold terribly, and will have fleece lined tights under my breeches (Asda, £6 - BEST BUY EVER!)

I just bought one of the fleece shirts I have not used it yet .
The sleeves look bulky that's worrying me a bit.

I wore my Hunting Stock Market shirt and it fitted well but didnt feel particularly warm (the company claim its the warmest shirt out there). However I must not be too swift in my feedback as I haven't tried it on a cold day yetso the jury is still out..... To wear generally, it felt well cut and comfy.

Doug, my OH has a shires one and says it's perfectly acceptable.

Sounds like its worth it for £20 then. Is there a need for a warm base layer under it? Or is it fairly warm?

Racesafe hunting shirt all the way for me. Brilliant and come in white and cream.

depends on your jacket Doug!
OH has a Caldene cavalry twill wool show jacket (so thickish but not a proper hunting jacket!) and does wear a merino base layer under it on colder days. He says if he had a proper jacket then he probably wouldn't bother except on the coldest of days.

I have the Shires Huntingdon tweed so probably a similar thickness. Thank you for the info! I shall do some shopping.

Wish I could find one in my size... the link you refer to kentridingclubber doesn't do my size. They are obviously a shirt apart, let's hope the lady who makes them reads this and decides to make them again!!

Yes really I could have done with a small but went for the XS and hoped for the best. It fits ok mind you I don't have much going on up top, shame when good products are discontinued, especially when there is such as vast array of tut out there!
