The Gin Shirt

$75.00

Inspired by the pattern worn by the British Special Forces in WWII and developed for Rhodesian Security Forces during the Bush War, Rhodesian Brushstroke is inarguably iconic. The Gin Shirt is our toast to this legendary pattern and the men of the RLI. 

Now with an added 1.5 inches of length compared to the last run—because some of you long-torsoed legends asked, and we listened.

Reviews

Too Comfortable

"I would wear my shirt to Mass on Sunday, Teams meetings during the week, visiting my reps with a sporty blue blazer, and while doing yard work. Unfortunately, my super-high FCM, backpack blower sucked part of my shirt into the impeller and shredded the left sleeve. I had a couple of fingers of bourbon on board while doing yard work in the Louisiana heat and didn’t notice. When my wife asked me what happened to my shirt, after doing laundry, I was pretty upset. I need to order a new one for church and will try to get my wife to repair the rip."

By far my favorite shirt I’ve ever owned

"By far my favorite shirt I’ve ever owned but daintiest shirt I’ve ever owned. Washed only on delicate never in a dryer. Pocket started to rip then a complete sleeve blowout due to poor stitching. I want another one but out of stock. Only had a couple months and wore about 12 times."

My favorite shirt!

"Absolutely love this shirt! I’m 6’1, 200 pounds and bought my first one in large. Bought a second one in XL and it hides my pistol even better. Great material for summer in the south."

— Jackie R. (5/5)

Very comfortable. Wore it to

"Very comfortable. Wore it to a tropical shirt day for work, very popular. Thanks!"

Unfortunately I did not obtain

"Unfortunately I did not obtain a packet so I do not have shirt. It is a pity because due to shipping to Europe and tax it costed me like two shirts but it looks nice so I was willing to buy it when it was restocked but the result is negative:( I think the problem was on the UPS side not on the seller side but I do not have my order anyway. . ."

One of the best feeling

"One of the best feeling shirts Ive ever worn! Super thin and breathable. Runs larger than I would like but I think that’s what the style is. Still don’t regret getting it, just have to get it tailored."

— Ryan B. (4/5)

The Good and the Bad

"I love the rayon fabric this shirt is made from. Soft, cool, and comfortable. I like that the buttons go almost to the bottom of the placket. I don't particularly like the cut: sleeves are tight on my biceps and the right armhole on the shirt I received is cut smaller than the left, making it less than comfortable. I was hoping to love this shirt, but I don't."

— Henry W. (4/5)

Drinks well

"Feels good. Looks good. Tough to shoot in for men built like a gorilla. Bought an xl to accommodate and the arms were snug with shotgun to shoulder. Mom said I look handsome in it 10/10 bombshell said it’s comfortable to sleep in. I shoot now with it fully unbuttoned. Would buy again."
