      Do IH shirts run bigger than FH??

      It's not just that they run larger, they are designed for normal people…...Doing a 46 or 48 in TFH will not solve the problem of fit, if you anything like a gut TFH are a no no.....

          OK then I'm "normal" (for a giant) - i.e. no washboard abs. I measured a few shirts and looking at IHs, I could wear XXL (some) or XXXL for sure.  Good to know.  I guess I can still look at TFH pics and think about working out more, ha!

            A Flat Head question for anyone - I tried some 3009s in TS38 form self edge, and they were no where near the measures shown on the website - they said W38L38, but when I got them they were at best 36-36 - I could get them on but they'd be way too small after a soak.  So I have a credit - I see they have the LHT, SExFH collaboration with "Ring-Ring" in a 38W, pre-soak measurements shown as 38x40.  The $485 (gulp) is not such a bite since I have a credit from the return… so I'm thinking... Anyone have experience with these jeans?  Are they worth it?  Any advice on how they compare (fit) to IH BBs or 666?

                the ring ring collabs I really like, the denim is great, the wrangler inspired details are unique, and I really like the fit. They run large in the waist and wont shrink much until machine washed a few times. my w30 are something like 33-34 now so ask them to directly measure a pair before you buy. I can't compare to BB or 666 but generally they're a roomy top block and slim leg

                  I think the top block construction has something to do with the waists coming up large.  They are a sick pair, if you can fit into them.  Shit don't get more limited than this one.

                    That's a loaded question if there ever was one 🙂

                      No - I ordered the 3009s based on the measurements at self-edge, got them but they were off (smaller) by 2" in waist and inseam - didn't dare soak them.  So I returned them, now I have a credit I "have to" use (not a bad problem to have).  Not sure about Plan B. Looking for thoughts on the Ring Rings… Love my BBs and 666-18s - don't know why but I got curious about the Flat Heads, just did.

                          Thnaks for all the posts and pm's. I shall certainly start to stock 38W TFH jeans where possible (maybe up to a 40 in the 3009) . I'm not sure if they have ever been asked before to make a 48 shirt but I'll certainly ask. If possible I would order in just several popular flannels.

                            Thx - glad you like them - how is rear rise?  I will def. ask them to measure first before I decide - I wish I had done that before I ordered the 3009s (duh).

                            I will look back through the FH topic and see if there are any pics.  They'd be unique - something different with the left-hand denim.  Be nice to have something by TFH since I for sure can't wear the shirts…

                              The 3009 would have been great for me, I loved the denim and the cut, but the pair I got hold of was smaller than tagged in the waist - maybe it was a rogue.  And I'd for sure by a flannel if I thought it would fit… very cool, thx!
