2026 just got a whole lot softer — and stronger.
GearJunkie just named the MuskOx Field Grand Flannel the Best Overall Flannel of 2026, and we’re not one bit surprised. Designed for the rugged demands of outdoor living and refined enough for everyday wear, this heavyweight beast of a shirt is built for men who don't back down when the weather turns unpredictable.
Whether you're layering up for a sunrise hike or sipping a cold one on the porch, the Field Grand Flannel is the kind of shirt that works as hard as you do. It’s not just built to last — it’s built to be lived in, season after season.

From alpine mornings to backyard beers, the Field Grand Flannel delivers the perfect balance of structure, comfort, and durability. Brushed for softness but woven tight to handle the wild, it’s your go-to layer for spring days that start crisp and end in a warm golden haze.
For the last two years, we’ve listed MuskOx’s Grand Flannel as our top or near-top flannel pick. The cotton weave is looser and punches up at nearly 9 ounces per square yard. It’s undeniably a heavyweight flannel. The Field Grand uses a slightly lighter fabric (8.2-ounce cotton). It is woven with a denser weave, giving the flannel a little more rigidity and durability, unlocking a little more wearability into the side seasons.

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves!
So if you're ready to ditch the flimsy layers and gear up with purpose, grab the flannel that earned its stripes the hard way — in the field.
