      Personally I like both, so I bought both, but if I had to choose one I think it would be the 52. Not sure why really, I suppose I just prefer the snaps over the buttons. Both great shirts though imo.

        hey thanks for that, how do the two shirts compare fit wise ? just looking at the numbers it looks like the 54 is a little slimmer/neater than the western?

          is there any reason the western version of this shirt gets so much love compared to the IHSH-54? both great shirts but i think the one with side pockets has the edge!

          No idea, I thought the side pocket version would sell quicker…....

            Can't really compare I'm afraid, as the 52 is L and the 54 XL, so is obviously larger.

              Am i right in thinking that the the western version is cut a little longer than the side pocket version?

              Two words….

              snap buttons!

                          i dont think it needs side pockets but please keep making a solid color heavy flannel every year.  this will be a definite purchase for me every year.  i also think i like this better than the normal button version because i already have the IHW01 so I have a wool version of the same shirt already.  Didn't need another.  I have two of the other heavy westerns and I love them.  This is my fav of the 3 that i have.

                            Riff, how long does the front of your shirt measure? (Shoulder to longest part.)

                                One of these beautiful black flannels arrived at my doorstep yesterday.  And the first day I had it on my back I had to break up a fight between two girls at work.  I'd say that the flannel was the victor.
