IHSH-72 - Ultra Heavy Buffalo Check Western Shirts

[Qinhan]

The buffalo check seems to polarise opinion and different people have different views on it.  This, of course, is perfectly fine.  I would note, however, that new colour variations of the buffalo check would only mean repeating the pattern, not the colour.  It's a classic pattern, so I don't see anything wrong with that.  There are also plenty of other new IH releases that are able to satisfy those that want something completely new and different.  I also think it's worth pointing out that these shirts sold super fast and that there is definately strong demand for them so, from a business perspective, new colour variations make good sense.

Like Finn said, just my $0.02.

Q, I completely agree with what you are saying, but the problem is that H is running out of colors. Red, green, blue, and gray have already been done (that I know of). I think part of what makes Iron Heart so appealing (for me at least) are that the patterns and colors are timeless. They look as good today as they would have 50 years ago. In the case of the buffalo check, the best color combinations have already been covered. I think a brown variation could work; but when you start looking at purple, or orange, or whatever, the flannel begins to stray from timeless and skew toward trendy. To each his own though, and I appreciate the discussion.

i'm with seanocono.  i think you start to diminish the essence of the pattern if you try to incorporate too many colors.  a brown/ivory might work, but i also don't want to see purples and oranges.  i honestly can't think of any colors i would like to see with the buffalo check that i haven't already seen.

How about red and red, so it looks like an IHW-04??

[pillowPANTS]

I think a maroon would look nice. Maroon/ivory or gray

[Qinhan]

i'm the guilty party.  had ordered a S on the day they dropped but the sleeves were too short on me… the shirt found its way to georgeel and i had given up hope of getting a M.  IH miracles happen i guess...

[Qinhan]

I'll tell you this much: had the sale been extended a bit, I'd likely be walking around with a lot less coin in my pockets. (Damn you, whoever picked up those two Red 72s in XL.)
