When you're in the back-country you often have to depend on yourself, simply because there is no-one else around. So its imperative to have gear you can rely on. There's no better, or more versatile shirt than the Back 40. Made from a heavyweight 350gsm polar fleece the Back 40 features a long-cut tail to keep your back warm while working hard, high zip up collar, domed cuffs and TWO handy large pockets.
The Back 40 is a rugged, dependable no-nonsense shirt.
Made from our thickest fleece, the 350 gsm Polar Fleece is warm, cosy and tough!
Fabric Care: Machine wash warm. Cold rinse, spin to remove excess water. Line dry or tumble on 40c. Do not use bleach. Do not iron. For best results wash inside out. Do not allow garment to come in contact with direct heat.
Outer
The outer layer, or shell as it is sometimes known, has a big job to do. It is your best form of defence against the cold.
Will let the sweat out but keep the warmth in.
The Back 40 is worn on farms and in the hills around the world. Excellent in the cooler weather.

I hate to admit it, but
My Back 40 is more in square metres rather than hectares. and I work from home at a computer rather than on a tractor. I still like to move freely from inside to outside, and I hate overheating my home, so I like soft warm clothing that keeps me and my bum warm during the day, and lets me tramp or walk the dog in comfort. I don't want to shatter the Swazi image, but townies like their gear too.

Mr
I purchased the bush shirt equivalent of the Back 40 some 25 years ago and have worn it on many hunting trips around South Island bush and high country, in addition to everyday winter wear on a rural property. The original is now thin and near worn out, with a couple of rips and numerous melt spots from welding splatter. The high quality of the original persuaded me to replace it with the present day equivalent, and I am again delighted with the quality and fit. I have worn other Swazi clothing over many years and have never been disappointed.
