The reputation of Swanndri is built on the foundation of solid, strong, tough performance wear. Natural fabric is woven to exact specification and then treated to provide the famous water-repellent properties.
The work shirt, made from one hundred percent pure New Zealand wool was fabled for its durability and practicality and quickly became the choice of pioneering New Zealanders. Its unsurpassed fabric keeping them warm and dry in the winter. To this day the original design remains unchanged, and is still as relevant to today’s conditions as it was almost a century ago.
Strong & Tough! – Swanndri use the finest NZ wool to weave a fabric more durable and hard wearing than any competitor has yet been able to re-create. Once manufactured fully in NZ, these days the final construction is completed off shore to Swanndri NZ highest standards.

May I please thank you for your very professional service and delivery of my Swanndri Bush Shirt that arrived before your estimated date. It was very handy because we had 5 inches of snow when it arrived.
Ever since my mate from Gisborne arrived in his Swanni in Aberystwyth to play rugby in 1984 I’ve always wanted one so I’ve been waiting over 35 years for this one.
I think my Bush Shirt will long outlast me and my boys are fighting for for who will have it after my day. I hope it’s not too soon.
Thanks again,
