      Wait a minute….what the heck? That loons perfect on you and the sleeves are in total proportion with the body. Is that the diamond and dots version? It's just so weird because I never have problems with giant arms but this wabash looks so strange on me...did you give it a hot wash or anything?

        @ongaku, Excellent fit mate!
        You make me lust for this shirt even more, have to cut some knots eventually and decide on getting it.
        Possibly i will get the R-version that's cut a bit wider in the body, the rest of the measurements should be the same, i also have relatively long arms so i shouldn't have a problem with the sleeve lenght.

        The fades on the shirt you linked are just plain sick!

          It's the diamond and dots version and it's proportions are still the same as the day it arrived.
          What I understand from Mich there are 2 fits, R and W. I have the 7012W.
          To get some perspective: I am 1.77m, 70 kgs. Normallly wear S or 36 (if the sleeves are long enough)

            Cut some knots quickly and get it! They won't be available forever…

              The Flat Head make some of their shirts in a regular fit but not many. However, the W at the end of an item number such as 7012w denotes the fact it has been washed so will have little or no shrinkage. R is the code for the regular fit (as opposed to normal slimmer version)

                  Here is a pic of my paisley.  I had given up on Flat Head shirts a few years ago since the shoulders on the size 42 were always too big and the stomach of size 40 was too tight.  The Flat Head houndstooth still remains one of my favorite patterns and I really do wish that shirt fit me.  I was in Self Edge a few weeks ago and tried on a size 40 paisley.  The fit shocked me!

                  Material
                  There are alternate rows of white polka dots and paisley.  The paisley consists of shapes that resemble teardrops and flowers with 4 petals.  The weight seems similar to my IHSH-26 and a bit thinner than my IHSH-21.

                  Fit
                  The shoulders, chest, sleeves, and length are all perfect.  My only improvement would be to make the sleeves a bit narrower.  Note that the shoulder measurement on the Self Edge website is a bit larger than reality.  We measured the shoulders again in the store and determined them to be slightly less than 18in.

                  Details
                  The amazing details include white cat eye buttons, selvedge gussets, a selvedge placket, chain stitched seams, and "Flat Head and Co" written in white on the inside of the placket.

                  Summary
                  One of the main reasons I became such an Iron Heart fan is because the shirts fit me so well.  I'm glad that Flat Head has realized that not everyone has huge shoulders.  I'm glad that I can finally wear one of their shirts.  I really like their patterns and designs and it would be great if I could fit into their future shirts as well.

                    Nice fit! And for what it's worth when I tried on the paisley it didn't seem to fit me any differently than any of flat head's other shirts….

                                would be nice if there would be an IH-version of that since i hate the fit of the TFH shirts!

                                      His is the sawtooth western variant though. Which I have and treasure.

                                          Yep, the western version has some taper, the other version doesn't.  The normal shirt would be a great fit for you if you could find one in your size.

                                            cheers kyle! thanks for chiming in…so when you say "the normal shirt", you're meaning the work shirt version, no?
