      Looking to get a lighter flannel. How do you all like this shirt? I have the IHSH-193, and this seems like it would be a nice counter to it.

        I meant to get back to you about this.

        I have the opposite problem to you in that I need only one or two lighter shirts in the arsenal and can wear UHF’s nine months of the year. I’m happy one of my lighter ones is the 179.

        It’s a very flexible shirt, looks good with both new and faded indigo denim, black denim and duck. It’s a light, soft, slightly stretchy fabric that still has substance to it. I pimped mine with MOP snaps and I’m glad I did.

          I love my Kanreki, it's definitely the lightest IH flannel I own.
          As neph93 says its versatile, it's goes with anything & everything.
          I too pimped it with MOP snaps, & love it all the more for that! 😉

            No worries. I am sure you have a lot on your plate.

            Yeah, we seem to have the opposite problem, where I could wear these every day from Oct-March with just a light jacket or no jacket. While I want a UHF, it just doesn't seem practical. The 193 I did get, which seems to be about the same weight as this one, is beyond awesome. Each time I wear it, people ask about it. I'd also love to have the Giles shirt. It has a cool history behind it. I am just a year late to the party.  😃

                @Wlemon the Kanreki is going to be much lighter than your 193.  It is definitely a perfect weight flannel for warmer climates (I believe you are in LA?).  I live in Phoenix FWIW and I love my UHF's but the weight of the Kanreki is definitely more suited for warmer climates than the bad boy UHF's.

                I would also highly recommend you pick up one of the 195's (Grey or Red) as they are also a perfect weight flannel for warmer climates.  I slightly prefer the red 195 over the grey but they are both killer colorways and awesome lightweight fabrics.

                  Turns out that the IHSH-179 and overdyed denim are a perfect match. Having a super cute family works too. This is a great pic in every way @Wlemon

                    Everyone who owns the kanreki looks great in the kanreki… but no one looks quite as great as @RoxRocks86  😘

                        That’s the green sand beach right? Olivine. Great photo

                        Maybe so. Maybe not

                          That's right! It's not really that green, but yeah, it's a bit olive gold!

                            Some reason this came back to me today, figured I'd post here, this the right spot?
                            I saw this last spring, and totally forgot to link, but this sure looks like the Kanreki shirt on Chicago PD

                                  I wasn’t convinced about this shirt when it was first released but since getting mine via a trade I gotta say I love it.

                                    It really is quite lovely. Mine doesn’t get worn enough because the weight means it is only suitable for a short season of the year, but I always pause to admire it when I go through my shirt rail.

                                      This shirt is the longest xs I own, but tying a knot makes all the difference  😎
