The idea of the Blanket Shirt stems from ancient outdoor garments. Wool jackets with this basic form have been used for ages. In more recent times, these have gained popularity among bushcrafters and other traditionalists.

Features
The Blanket Shirt is a simple and functional garment that doesn't compromise tried-and-true features. These were good back in the day and not the least bit worse in the days to come. We didn't reinvent the wheel, just made our own version with practical features.
Minimalistic yet practical pockets
The chest pocket is large and positioned a bit higher on the chest so as not to interfere with backpack hip belts or equipment belts worn over the shirt. Great for storage or warming your cold fingers. Inside the pocket is a smaller pocket, sewn onto the body side of the shirt. This little flat pocket is intended to safely store any important valuables, such as mobile phones. Access slits on the sides to make rummaging through your trouser pockets or accessing equipment on your trouser belt easier.
Spacious hood
The hood offers protection from wind and rain and keeps your head warm, an obvious necessity if there ever was one. The hem is way longer on the back, which keeps the crack of your arse covered in any squatting position, and it also protects from wet or cold surfaces when sitting. Unbemazing!
Non-chafing raglan sleeves
Raglan sleeves, these are an elegant solution! No seams anywhere on top of the shoulders, so there's no chafing when carrying backpacks. Mobility of the arms is better as well.
