RAID shirt: lightweight BDU-style shirt

RAID Shirt: lightweight BDU-style blouse

A modern version of the classic BDU shirt, designed as a lightweight outer layer for urban and outdoor use. It is made from a blended fabric of 50% polyester, 48% cotton, and 2% elastane, offering slight elasticity that does not restrict movement.

The cut features raglan sleeves, sewn directly to the collar to avoid shoulder seams, which is useful when worn under a plate carrier. The main closure uses heavy-duty Canadian buttons.

It has two slanted chest pockets, secured with two Canadian buttons and featuring a small internal loop. It also includes two shoulder pockets with flaps, velcro closures, and an alternative Canadian safety button. These pockets have two independent compartments and space for pens.

Inside, there are two additional pockets: one mesh pocket without a closure, and another with a vertical zipper closure. The garment also incorporates VELCRO panels on the chest and shoulders for customization, double-reinforced elbows, and an internal compartment for elbow pads. The cuffs are adjustable with velcro straps, and there is a small loop under the collar to secure a hat.
