Blast From The Past – The Mojave Travel Shirt from Beyond Clothing

We are reach by way back into the SSD archives for this one. In May of 2010 we first wrote about a “Travel Shirt” whipped up by Beyond Clothing founder Scott Jones in 2009.

This “Travel Shirt” was originally a one-off that he made for himself. It is a waist length design with mandarin collar, chest and sleeve pockets made from a lightweight material. It almost has a Star Wars vibe.

I harangued him about it and eventually he added it to the line up at Beyond. Now you have to remember, at that time, everything was made to order, including their custom size “Big &Tall” version of the USSOCOM Protective Combat Uniform.

When Beyond sold to 5.11 Tactical not long after, the Mojave Travel Shirt as it became known was dropped from the line as they retooled their offerings. Unfortunately, I never bought one.

I wonder if the patterns are still around and Beyond could reintroduce this cool adventure wear jacket. It would be great in a NEXTEC fabric as a 3-season Softshell.
