Any ideas where I can get a (XXL) collarless shirt or lookalike with no wool in it?

Alternatively a pattern or spare of any size I can get someone to copy in cotton?

Soldier of Fortune collarless shirts have no wool in them.

Interesting.
I did look there, but discounted it because the description for the item (BE907) says:

Our collarless shirt is made from a quality wool mix so that it will not itch or irritate the skin.

I've e-mailed them to get confirmation.

Lol... well they may say it has wool in it and it may well do so now. But the one I had, had never seen a sheep that's for sure.

I got one of these, due to a wool allergy.

Which is 100% cotton. It's got a single pocket, which you can take off if you wish, but apparently private purchase shirts were acceptable, and widely used, so it's not beyond the realms of possibility.

Thanks, DM.
That looks like a better option.
And they come in more "prosperous" sizes, too. :good:
