European soldiers venturing into exotic terrain required lightweight, breathable outerwear. Military pieces that would not weigh them down in the blazing heat. They were uniformed in practical solutions fabricated from cooling cotton yarns to alleviate blisteringly high temperatures. Often fabrics were dyed Khaki – predominantly because it was a more accessible price point to manufacture and secondarily because it blended seamlessly with the rugged bush landscape.

This safari shirt comes in Cotton Ripstop: a sturdy, lightweight fabric known for its resistance. Its unique quality comes from the special weaving process that reinforces the fabric with thick threads at regular intervals, making it highly resilient to rips and tears.
