We took stock of UES thick 3 ply socks in grey and navy.
The UES Craftsmen and women in Okayama operate a rare and old machine with 102 needles that weaves the cotton into a low gauge knit. The 3 ply uneven thread gives the appearance of nep.
They feel really soft and ooze quality.

The Indigo Houndstooth Flannel is the thickest The Flat Head has ever made.
It is yet another 'special' piece taking the bar even higher.It is so thick it has the warmth and substantial feel of wool with all the luxurious comfort of cotton.
The ivory base is covered with an intricate indigo houndstooth pattern.
The inside is brushed extremely soft and the collar, pocket flaps, and cuffs are canvas lined.
Pearloid Universal snaps are used as buttons for the shirt.The shuttle on the loom had to be exchanged every 5 minutes during the weaving so difficult was the procedure.
Because of this only a limited amount of these shirts was made.NB. The shirt runs slightly smaller than other western flannels we have carried. You may or may not need to size up so check the size charts.

What hajduk said! A beauty…
-
The only reason I haven't bought that beauty is that I'm swearing myself off of new shit outside of what's currently on my roadmap. What a bitchin shirt…
-
Would love to get this shirt. But for the majority of FH shirts - shoulders are too broad corresponding to the chest sizes IMHO.
-
First shirt I've seen in such a long time that I truly covet. Do you know if they're doing a work shirt version Danny? Only tried one western in a 40 that was too right but I think a 42 would look sloppy on me

There was an option for the workshirt. I don't know if other retailers ordered it. I do know the fabric was a bitch to weave and only a small amount was done. If the 40 western was a tad too tight and the 42 loose the 42 in this shirt could be ideal. It fits like a 41.
-
I really, really hope that there's only a couple of 40s in stock. Because I really want to buy this… I wanted to buy it from Danny's description, but now I've seen the pics :-*.
Damn...
-
I would order the 42 but I just don't think their westerns are for me…. 40 was perfect in shoulders and sleeve and tight in chest and waist, and I have a reall thing about sloppy arms.....gotta be on the lookout for the work shirt
thanks Danny! -

M_P As lovely as it is you only need one not a couple
-
Well yes, hoping you only had a couple in the sense that, hopefully they will sell out fast and thus temptation will be removed.
-
I have been thinking about the arrival of that shirt since I saw it months ago. Man I need a job! :o
-
Danny, how tall is the dude modelling that shirt, and what size is it?
Cheers
RnRJames is 189cm tall and 85kg. He is modelling size 44
He fitted the 42 pretty well too, just a tad snugl so we went for a more relaxed fit for the photos.

The Flat Head is all about desire rather than need
