This is an amazing shirt

The cut is a bit long, but a good hot wash will solve that. The finish and comfort one this is absolutely amazing. Kept me cool on a long hike and it looks stylish as can be. Definitely will be picking another one up at some point. Jerry does it again!

Functionally, the shirt is exactly the same as my khaki drill one, but in a vibrant British jungle green and I expect it to serve identically well to my older khaki aertex shirt. I would compare the color more favorably to the tan-green of old German BW moleskin uniforms, than to the US OD green.
It should be noted there *are some other* differences in the Jungle Aertex shirt that differentiate it from the Khaki version—although these are purely cosmetic and might be unique to my particular example.
Firstly, the rear tail of the green shirt is slightly longer than the one on my khaki shirt. About an inch longer, I want to say. Though seeing as how these shirts are meant to be tucked into pants where the shirt ends would be hidden (or tailored) this isn't really a big deal.
Secondly, the sleeve cuff closures...they're mirrored. As in, the buttons on the cuff and their corresponding button holes have switched places. When the shirt is worn, the cuff button hole is facing the inside of the body, with the sleeve buttons facing out away from the body prior to being buttoned. This is opposite the khaki shirt, which has the cuff's *buttons* on the inside, and the cuff button *hole* facing the outside.
In fact, this green shirt is the ONLY shirt in my entire closet that has this mirrored cuff-closure setup, hence my initial confusion when my muscle memory kicked in. And I honestly cannot tell if this is unique to my particular model, or if the real UK jungle green shirts were designed like that.
However, as stated earlier, these differences are only cosmetic and have no bearing on the actual function of the garment—hence why I have not taken off any stars.
