Unbelievable.  That is like discovering lost treasure from some ancient civilisation.

[Giles]

Yep and there are other treasures too.  Can't remember exactly what and I am not in the office, but will pop info in relevant threads as and when…....

We have an XXL in red for auction….Simply amazing find....

Hello,

Can anyone offer any insight into how much an (IHSH-20) in a size (XXL) may shrink after a couple of hot soaks/washes?

…specifically through the (Chest) area?

I'd need at least a good (1/2" inch) through the chest to be confident that an (XXL) would fit correctly.
As well as a good (1/2" - 3/4" inch) in the arm length.

Anybody have one that they've soaked/washed a couple of times and can compare the initial current measurements on theirs to the pre-soak/pre-wash measurements listed here:

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I reckon you would get the shrinkage you need with a hot wash…

Great pics! I am interested to know how you wash your shirt. Yours looks like it didn't get hairy or get any pills.

Just received the grey and now the trifecta is complete. It is now time for me to retire. I had a good run.

You bastard! I really wanted that one! Congrats and if you ever feel the need to part with it, please consider me first!

[madmonday]

curious to see your thoughts @Max Power  as I think you have owned one or two buffalo checks from ironheart

[Max Power]

Be sure that I will do a comparison and review. I even might have my brand new red 72 to compare it with. I tried on Jordan's a few years ago and was pretty impressed by it, to put it mildly.

And yes, if I should feel I need to part, I will consider you @thomasnunnally . (But don't count on that to happen).

[Finn666]

congrats my friend @Max Power …what color way btw.?

[madmonday]

black & red if memory serves me correctly

[Finn666]

memories served you right mate…just saw the already locked fs-thread. thanks

Are these still the thickest Buffalo Check flannels Iron Heart has made?
