IHSH-72 - Ultra Heavy Buffalo Check Western Shirts

[grandmasterben]

I proxied a dry bones flannel from rakuten and used tenso to ship; haven't gotten it yet but it's in customs and I'm sure it'll work out just fine. Was about 30 bucks for shipping so not too bad, but they have a deal where it's half off if you order between now and Christmas or something along those lines.

I've used Sutocorp a bunch and have had no issues.

yeah sutocorp or sharpservicejapan!…haven't copped anything through them, but they replied to my emails really quick and sounded pretty trustworthy!

@JCMx800:

Any experiences with Tenso so far?

Used them a bunch of times.  No problems and their service is efficient and pretty quick.

I'd like to apologise to ddrock.  If I had not dropped the ball on this one, he would not have to be going through this shag and hassle.  I screwed up, sorry.

@Alex76

How would you compare this to the Flat Heads material wise?

[ALEX1976]

^^ top=FH    down=SH72

left=FH            right=SH72


^^ FH

^^ SH72




^^ FH

^^ SH72
FH vs SH72…..both great shirts-the FH is little bit lighter and thinner but minimal but the SH 72 is much warmer:-)

FH HNW-52W Red weights 0,6 kg (The fabric is woven on a vintage loom and therefore has a very three dimensional pattern due to the loom and also the extra heavy gauge of thread)
100% COTTON selvedge flannel

SH 72 weights 0,8 kg (Fabric single brushed on face, and double brushed on reverse)

NIICEEE…...

Many thanks for doing an awesome comparison there Alex. By looking at the pics its almost the same shirt BUT totally 2 different beast i suppose...

Was always intrigued by the flat heads heavy shirt and your pics helps me a lot and I do like the weave pattern on the FH...

Peace..!!

[ALEX1976]

no prob dude…anyway both dope!

[daynym]

Great comparison. 2 great shirts!

[georgeel]

I just ordered an XS. 
Red 
Hope did not screw size.  :-
I always do in tops. 
No, not always, often. 
But I'm looking for a snug fit, this time. 
By the way, it shrinks? 
Yes, I know, "One-washed, so minimal if any shrinkage"… but, it shrinks? ::)
... Uh... Perhaps it is a bit too early to ask...

Hey ddrrock, did you end up using a proxy?  Fit pics are always good if you are ok in posting pictures.  There are a few XL shirts for sale in the For Sale thread, should check it out.

those of you that went tts, any regrets? all this talk of sizing up is confusing me…
