IHSH-86 - 2013 Heavy Herringbone Flannels

[Snowy]

@Max:

BTW - anybody else here thinks that the 86 is not as hairy and brushed as the 70?

I'm still trying to put my finger on it. I did a blind touch/rub between the 70 and 86 last night and couldn't feel any differences, but it feels slightly different to wear. I have a feeling it's due to the 86 not having had a trip in the washing machine vs 70's multiple trips is all….

86 is a touch lighter IMO, not much but a bit…there is a difference, it's super subtle and only someone with an acute level of OCD would ever notice.

hence your noticing.  as usual they are great items, i'm just waiting for all the excitement to die down to see if folks keep reaching for it.

[zhivago]

It's true…

After a double blind feel test Dr. Z maintains they are in fact exactly the same!

The mystery deepens…

It's crazy isn't it! :). Glad you re-created my experiment and got the same results as I did.

Snowy, I need fit pics!  I'm between (M) and (L).

[Qinhan]

^  Yes, definately Snow Man.  I'm trying to decide if the sleeve length is going to work for me or not.

[Snowy]

Okay gents. Hold tight. I'll stick it on now and take some indoor shots for you. Do you want me to compare sizing to anything else visually @ the same time??

[Guest]

Anything else in a (M).  Can't recall your roll call off the top of my head.  I'm worried about the shoulder measurement mostly.  I wear my shirts snapped, so I don't know about the 17.1" measurement.

[Snowy]

Okay, will do a little shoot for you mate. Photos up in 20-30 minutes….

[Qinhan]

Would love a sizing comarison with the '70 in size small but I'll be happy with whatever you choose to upload.

[Snowy]

Okay, uploading pictures now. I missed the small 70 request, but got it back out and over-layed on the 86.

Wow, what an impressive collection.  Ur amazing!  Thank you.  Question definitely answered.  BTW that grey looks awesome 

[Qinhan]

Thanks very much Snowy.  Sleeve length on the '86 looks good on you and not nearly as short as I expected.

[Max Power]

I did some comparison pictures, against TWSH 03, SH 70 and SH 37. My feeling Heaviest is 70, then 86, 37,03. The 70 feels most brushed and soft, the 03 is the most slubby and "stiff".

[Qinhan]

Oh wow.  Those are some amazing comparison shots.  They really give a better sense of the differences between the fabrics.  Thanks a bunch, Max.

@TresUnCool:

Whoa…is that a typo? Did 7 XL Blues just go back in stock?

Yes, by accident, I must have left ambiguous notes as to what to do with what, when the shipment arrived….., They are for retailers......Now backed out of stock....

Hi Flo,
can you give us a closer fitpic in better light? I´m thinking about a green one too. You got a XL, right?
The measurements seems very promising, similar to the 37. How is the fit compared to the 37?
Thanks Steffen
