Product details
Product description

The CS95 shirt in MTP camo is called "Barracks shirt". It's virtually the same as the old CS95 shirt, just MTP camouflaged and renamed. We got a large one-off lot from a very suspicious gentleman merchant for a reasonable price, so here's a chance to grab one for cheap. Big sizes mostly!

The jacket is lightweight, as it is designed for warm weather, with two chest pockets. Very simple. The cotton-rich material (70/30 % cotton/polyester) is insanely comfortable. With something under it, the shirt could work in chillier weather as a light jacket too. The shirt is not treated with insect repellents.

The tags advise to wash at 50 degrees Celsius (122 F), but 40 (104 F) should do. Hang dry.

Size info

Sizes in the Brit system; first up is user's recommended height, then chest circumference. If you fall between sizes, a safe bet is to pick the larger one. A rare occurrence happened and we got mostly large sizes.

Condition

In clean, overall very nice condition, most haven't even been worn.

5 stars for the quality. I received mine, in 190/112, last week. Apart from a name tag it is like new, hardly worn and clean. Very comfortable to wear. U usually wear 180/112 but wanted longer sleeves, and these are more than long enough, even with my arms up high they won't pull back down - if the sleeve cuffs are closed tight enough. Also, long enough to wear in my pants and not pull out during use. It must be a very good summer shirt for situations where you need long sleeves to protect your arms (I fly hot air balloons and always need that, no matter how hot the weather; but foraging for wild fruits in hot weather also needs sleeves, or protection from mosquitos...). Nice big pockets, not very stylish but they take the kitchen sink and have pen holders and attachment loops inside. Large sturdy buttons, no velcro, no zippers, thus lighter and softer to wear. Mostly cotton, which I need when playing with lots of propane and big flames... Can't wear synthetic stuff then. The only thing I like less is the camo pattern. This is my first garment in MTP and for me it is a bit too much like the patterns we see every day on tv from the war in Ukraine. Way more in your face saying military garb than say the German Flecktarn fieldshirt. French hunters might like it, and I don't hunt nor do I want to associate with them. Still, if one does not mind that or for anyone volunteering to fight invaders, this is a fine shirt. As always, you just can't get this quality material on the civilian market at similar cost.

Great shirt. Naturally I'm irritated that the Brits contracted their kit out to China, as I think it's good for a country's industry to support their own military, but the shirt itself is pretty great.

An extremely comfortable shirt, that is made of a lightweight poly/cotton blend that's perfect for wear in the summer. Highly recommend
