IHSH-23 Small Check Flannels

So. I have this nascent concept, that on the new webiste, stuff that is seriously limited will be tagged "endangered". I'm bored of saying "seriously limited, get in now or you will be disappointed". But the fact is, that is the truth. So when you see "endangered, I mean it….G

Genius..it´s like every run is absolutely unique. That´s what makes Iron Heart so fucking insane - the attention that is being paid to every detail - right down to the actual weaving of new patterns and designs. Love it ….
Seriously! I have noticed that the construction of every other pair of denim I own that is NOT produced by IH is sub par in comparison. Threading seems to fall out of my FH, DB, and TSL's. The belt loops are notorious in my collection for this (Not the case with any of my IH's).

I'm not sure if this is possible from a web design and technical standpoint in your case but I've seen web retailers that actually have a countdown of products available. I think that is very useful and would be a little less sensationalist but possibly more effective in marketing terms than just calling a piece "endangered".

I agree with that feature if it is available! I love being able to see the live stock of a store. The only problem is if it is not constantly/ automatically updated it becomes more of a nuisance than it is worth. I am assuming that this would be a bit more complicated because sometimes Haraki-San has stuff tucked away that G ends up scoring for us. I am also not sure that Haraki-San would be into having the actual inventory availability that accessible to the public. I could be wrong though. Maybe I am over thinking the concept and that G could just do it for the stock at "The Castle" and that the special requests/ finds from Japan could be reserved for those people who are on here and actually research what they are spending their money on? Just my $0.02…
Sorry to continue going off topic!

I think a countdown on a website is pushing costumers. However - Giles could always give an update on the Forum - this is what´s left..plus - the stocklist will be showing u anyways what´s left

I got this shirt directly from Japan (I have lots of Japanese colleagues) in size Medium. This is by far the largest IH shirt I have, and I have lots of them. Brand new, the shoulder measurement was 46.75cm (18.4in), quite a bit larger than the 45cm advertised. I contemplated selling the shirt but before I did so I made an attempted to shrink it in the wash. A 40deg soak shrunk the shoulders from 46.75cm to 46.25cm and another soak at 60deg shrunk them to 45.5cm (17.9in). This is only slightly larger than my ideal of 44.5cm (17.5in) so it's definitely wearable now. The sleeve and chest were also slightly larger than the typical IH shirt. The sleeves shrunk enough to fit me perfectly and I'm happy with the chest as well. Note that I usually wash my IH shirts at 30deg.
A major reason I prefer IH shirt to comparable brands such as Flathead is the narrow shoulders. It seems that both IHSH-22 and IHSH-23 have larger than usual shoulders. I hope this trend does not continue and future shirts have the typical narrow shoulders.
In other respects, it's a great shirt. The shagginess is approximately the same as IHSH-19 and less than IHSH-22. The pattern and color are unique and unlike any of the other shirts I have. The pics are an accurate indication of the color, except that the brown tones are more noticeable in person.

Uh oh G, I may need to switch to a Large. Fit pics of a L an XL when they come in as you usually do would be very helpful. Thank you in advance! And THANK YOU Dr. for you wonderful synopsis of the shirt before anyone else! Cheers

I love this time difference! I am awake when everyone else in my city sleeps and all of my favorite IH folks are awake somewhere else in the world. Thanks G. I will resume not sleeping and stand by…

I just compared the measurements of this shirt to the IHSH-22 and the IHSH-23 is a bit bigger in the Chest and the Bottom Opening…
-
I just laid the 22 and the 23 on top of each other - effectively identical in size
My IHSH-22 seemed a bit larger than the usual IH shirt but not as large as the IHSH-23. It was 46.25 cm across the shoulders new (compared to 46.75 for the IHSH-23) and either 45 or 45.25 (can't remember exactly) after a 60deg soak. I'll try to take some pics of it this evening.

Hey Giles,
After looking at Dr. Pat's sizing I would like to switch to a Medium. I am pretty close to Dr. Pat's size, so not sure what the process of getting that switched would be. I will most like be dry cleaning this flannel, since I don't trust my washing machine and those measurements Pat had were perfect for a medium, and even if the shirt shrunk I would still be golden. Think the large is going to be too big based off of Pat's assessment. Just trying to save everyone some hassle.
Thanks G!
