Ultra Heavy Bluey/Grey Buffalo Check Flannel Western and Work Shirts

Was H able to get extra fabric produced to do an OD version of this shirt?

[Max Power]

I hope so! Might have to pass this time, but an od would make me search for extra funds.

[Giles]

No, by the time i asked him, he had committed to the mill.  Sorry….

[Giles]

I'm bumping this as I am getting a load of questions about it and this thread has got lost…..

@Seul, how does your OD job hold on the shirt? @Max Power I could OD our Flannels, if you would like to invest in a tricky experiment…

I'll give the blue a shot, if I can afford it this time. We got some more expensive things planned and it's hard to imaginate wetherthat colour would suit me. But I was also sceptical about the purple…Might have to sell something then.

[Giles]

A lot of people were sceptical about the purple.  I met a friend before last years V&S party, he took the piss out of me for even considering making it.  When we got to the party and he saw them in the flesh he still said "no way, never".  10 minutes later he asked to to put a work shirt version aside for him.  Now it's one of his go to shirts…..

How can you dislike purple? Deep, dark purple has been the sign of royalty for ages. The 101 is magnificent.

Go Sharks?

Giles, will the price for these be less than the 101 due to the value of the Yen dropping?

[Giles]

I don't know until H gives me a cost.  To some extent, the falling Yen is counteracted by the rising cost of production in  Japan.  In real terms I have not really increased the price of anything in any major way in the last 8 years, at some point that has to give….

[NorthernVictory]

Ah, good to know. Very excited for this piece.

[superfuzz]

I'm curious to see what this shirt will look like. It's hard for me to get a good idea from the photo of the fabric.

[Giles]

Like this but muted and faded….

Curiosity struck me… how close to this guy?

From a weight and feel point of view,very different, from a colour point of view, @Danny RnH  or I will let you know when the IH ones arrive….

[NorthernVictory]

Cool.
