Women's Tops

Following on from our Men's Checked Flannel Shirts, we bring you the Women's version. Now complete and glowing with awesomeness we’re all wondering why we took so long to make them.

No matter what the time of year, when the sun sets in NZ, a flannel shirt is the perfect top to throw on and keep cosy by the fireside or on an evening stroll. The flannel shirt has to be one of the most versatile items of clothing.

Now you can probably pick up a flannel shirt from your local red shed for the price of half a dozen (non-craft) beers but it will never outlive, look as good or feel as amazing as the Cactus version. So what makes the Cactus Flannel Shirt stand out from the rest?

• It’s made from quality, 100% Cotton, 233gsm soft and warm brushed flannel
• NASA grade thread (that's strong!) and military grade buttons
• Voluminous, generous length chest pockets - they fit notebooks & phones
• Felled side seams for strength
• Long back to save you from the infamous butt crack issue
• Roomy enough to nicely fit a Cactus Merino underneath for extra warmth on those cold days
• Reasonably high collar - high enough to keep the sun off but not so high as to look like a dork
• Double layered shoulders for extra strength and durability
• NZ made - right here in Christchurch

Just when you thought you couldn't get anything better than merino for outdoor work or play... we bring you Cactus merino!

So what's so blimin good about it? In a nutshell:

 The secret is in how the fibres are held together. Traditionally, fibres are twisted together for strength but in the process, the ends poke out, giving materials like wool their characteristic of the itchy Grandmas home knitted jersey feel.

Like wringing out a cloth, air pockets are squeezed out too. Cactus Merino on the other hand, lays the fibres along the same orientation as the rest of the yarn, so fabrics feel more comfortable. Because more of the insulating air is retained, Cactus merino materials are warmer and loftier than ring spun materials. 

We're super excited to launch our limited edition tees. A result of our Tee comp, this cracking series by the talented Josh are Cactus all over. Hang in There is the ultimate Women's Cactus tee for those die hard climbers or just like living off the edge.

The tee itself is sewn in workshop right here in NZ and the print has been done down the road and it is. It also beats most other Tees hands down in a quality contest.

As with all Cactus products, our tees feature the highest quality materials and workmanship. Even our screenprinter said they were the best quality and cut of tee he had seen in a long time, so you know they're worth the money. Made from 93% cotton and 7% lycra (elastane) they've got a slight stretch, and superior comfort and durability.
