Austrian T-Shirt, Surplus

Green T-shirt by Austrian Bundesheer. Pretty similar to the German Bundeswehr ones. In other words dirt cheap, simple, good quality, and durable cotton t-shirt without disturbing brand logos or weakened seams. In quite a nice condition, too.

You might know the soul-sucking feeling when you buy an overpriced t-shirt and the colors fade away in the first wash and shitty stitching gives up almost instantly. If you and your wallet don’t enjoy it that much, maybe you might want to switch to military surplus t-shirts. There you get two products in one: cheap and good.

Materials and care

These t-shirts are 100% cotton. The instructions on the shirt claim that you can wash these at 95 degrees Celsius (203 F). However, normally a lot lower is enough.

Choosing the right size

The size system is not surprisingly Austrian. The larger the number, the bigger the shirt. The chest width is measured flat from armpit to armpit, so it is easy to compare with your own shirts. However, bear in mind that the measurements can vary from shirt to shirt because the shirts get stretched in use. Since these are stretchy, precision fitting isn’t that vital anyway.

Condition

Used Austrian military surplus. These are pretty nicely used, so there are no holes or bloodstains. The color can vary from more greyish green to more olive green. Clean and intact but might be a bit faded and stretched in use. If you want Jpristine perfection, buy a new shirt. We have those, too.
