IHSH-72 - Ultra Heavy Buffalo Check Western Shirts

[Giles]

All 3 SE's are getting the red, but not the green…..

[corporalclegg]

So that's basically it for the green ones?

[Jestre]

I had the longest debate with myself whether to get the green or the red.  Although the red was released previously I felt that it had a stronger "presence" to it.  If the green is no longer available in your size and you don't already own a red buffalo-check, this is nothing to sleep on.

(Isn't it ridiculous sometimes how much serious self-talk we do with ourselves over a flannel? Haha)

I can get some green XL and all sizes in red from Japan, but that's it…..

Who needs a 20 or a 72 when you have the 06?  Talk about grail status…

Thanks, as always. First thing I'm planning on doing after checking in is take the Ducks(666-D) down for a bit 'o union special love. Adding Red IHSH-72 to the list. Hopefully they'll be there by/on 1/Nov.

I need a green XL.  Was late on these today.

@Giles:

Having looked at Mega's pic, wondering now if an XXL might work.

Sad that gray wasn't revisited…..but oh well!

Green XXL copped.  Think I'll be good with this size.

My reasoning: 90% of my IH gear are XL and the rest XXL, and I'm happy with the fit of both.  This will be my first super heavy flannel in XXL and I like the measurements.  As Finn posted, if it's a tad too big, I can hit it with a hot wash.

count me in for some rocket ship red!!!

[grandmasterben]

You should be good. Super heavy flannels feel a tad smaller and they always shrink a little if you want them to.

[7tacos]

The shorter sleeve length of the XXL made my decision much easier.  The IHSH-20 were built with longer sleeves in my size, so I stuck with XL with those.  I think I'll love this one just as much as those.

I'm quite stoked.

they all share the pattern but of course the 06 was not a heavy weight. great unbrushed medium weight fabric
(giving you an out dave if you need a reason to buy…)

And the green is mine.

I hope I didn't screw up sizing…didn't think of propbably sizing up to XL in a heavy fabric. So if anybody discovers his green XL to be too big, I might be ready for a sawp with my L.

Too bad I have to pass on these

just if the L turns out to be too small in the end!…

Ok, quick thoughts from me on the 72.

• It looks amazing, my favourite looking flannel.

• The length is spot on, a little shorter fitting than most of my other Western style shirts.

• Width also feels a little boxier, probably to do with the fabric, which uits my body type.

• Very warm, does not feel as thick as the Dark Rider though…might be just me.

• The new snaps are beautiful.

• I had the chance to compare it with the Flat Head version last night, the IH version is thicker, heavier and the fabric is VERY different.

• As with all the IH heavy flannels, destined to be a classic, and essential winter wardrobe wear.
