The Flat Head

Got Em in yesterday, soaked last night and wearing today. The fit is on point … Gonna have to adjust before I give my unbiased opinion... Been. Wearing my 666xhs round the clock for the last 5 months and these are a different ball game.... Denim is definetly unique Ill update when I make up my mind but definitely didn't fall immediately in love like I did with the 666. Might just have to deal with being an IRONHEART snob.

After initial soak I determined I hated the se05bsp. Before I decided to sell them I decided for a second soak with two goals…
1. Get rid of the extra crotch butt area, looked like I was wearing adult diapers beneath my denim
2. Stretch the hem out to a larger opening.Mission accomlplished after the soak flipped them right side out and jammed bathing towels into bottom 8" of the legs stuffed as tight as humanely possible. Hung from the waist. Not only did hem stretch out but the weight of the damp bathing towels overnight brought my inseam back out to 37.5 ... Perfect for me.
I could not ask for a better fit now.

quick fit pics -
Thanks man. They look great on you! Edited to add I love the FH tee. I have it in grey and it is super comfy.
-
thank you. I would also have to agree about the shirt. I was leary about all the fuss concerning loop wheeled shirts. This was my first purchase and I have to admit I'm hooked. Who would have know there could be such a difference even in the quality of basic t-shirts.

I just scored this in a trade with markmont (thanks!) and it's pretty much my dream jacket and perfect for California. What do you guys think of the fit? Want to make sure I got it right…

Ahhhh thanks guys. My worries that it would be too small are alleviated…and btw, John is just a relatives PayPal that I use, my name is Ben :). But thanks rafa
-
That is a great fit. I've seen Mark wearing that varsity a couple of times and it is an amazing jacket.

I've got a couple in that size. When I get home, I'll do some quick measuring for you.
OK, I have two, so here are the measurements for both:
"Early Works"
(like this one, just a different color)
Shoulder- 20" (50.8cm)
Length- 27.75" (70.5cm)
Pit to Pit- 23.25" (59cm)
Arm- 9" (22.9cm)"Self Edge x Flat Head"
Shoulder- 19.5" (49.5cm)
Length- 27.25" (69.2cm)
Pit to Pit- 21.5" (54.6cm)
Arm- 8.75" (22.2cm)As you can see, they're basically the same in the shoulder, length and arm measurements. The P2P on the Early Works one is significantly bigger. Why? Beats me, but the SExFH is a couple of years old, while the EW is from last Spring. Anyway, hope that helps…

Have to be careful, sizing of FH is all over the place. FH does not make some of their Ts in larger sizes.
-
Great jacket and fit
-
FH sizing can indeed be all over the place on occasion. Looks great though Ben
