FIT & SIZING
The Drifter Shirt is cut with a relaxed fit in breathable Coolmax® fabric, with plenty of room through the chest and shoulders to move freely from the paddock to the pub. The performance fabric keeps you cool and dry without clinging, so it wears just as easily buttoned up as it does thrown open over a tee.
Fit: Relaxed through the chest and shoulders, never tight or restrictive
Layering: Works as a standalone casual layer, or open over a tee on cooler days
Movement: Coolmax® stretch and a roomy cut give you freedom through the shoulders and arms
Body: Shaped hem sits comfortably tucked or untucked without bunching
Arms: Full-length sleeves with room to roll up when it warms up
Overall feel: Lightweight, breathable and quick-drying, cool from the first wear
Sizing: Available in XS to 4XL; true to size, so order your usual fit

What is the Swazi Warranty?
All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.
Will I have to pay customs on an international order?
International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.
These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.
Please check with your local customs agent for more details.
Can I change or cancel my order?
We process orders very quickly, which means in most cases, we can't make changes after an order has been placed. We definitely cannot make changes after we have sent a shipping confirmation email with a tracking link.
In saying that, if you have already placed an order and would like to cancel or change it, please email us service@swazi.co.nz or call 64 6 368 4822 within 2 hours of placing your order. We will do the best we can.
