"Ladies first" - except up a ladder or when we offer clothes at Varusteleka. The good old Särmä Wool Flannel Shirt is tried and tested; as a downside, we found it to suffer in looks when worn by women. Here's our countermeasure; you're welcome!

• A clean, thick flannel shirt
• Fabric 60% recycled wool, 30% polyester, and 5% polyamide
• Made in Lithuania

There are lots of spiffy cheap rags of shirts, which "will do" until you try on something real and proper good. The danger is that you might raise your standards. This collared shirt is one of those more premium-style articles of clothing, so try it on at your own risk. All in all, this shirt is nothing short of a miracle: made of Italian wool fabric, sewn in Estonia (it's just South of Finland), and the whole package for this price.
