IHSH-299-PUR - Ultra Heavy Flannel Work Shirt - Classic Check - Purple
-
I do wonder whether the ‘legendary’ softness comes into play psychologically, i.e it makes you more conscious of the feel of the shirt, and you also maybe have a heightened level of expectation given the reputation (not to mention cost). In any case, glad you’ve found a way of making it work and hope that over time it breaks in and you get on a bit better with it

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone!
I truly just want everyone to enjoy their shirts. I didn’t mean to make you feel singled out, and I don’t feel the least offended. Just wanted some experienced voices to chime in, to see if there might be something different about the feel of this batch.

Owning 3 pairs, does not qualify me as expert, but from my perspective they are not scratchy or itchy. Woolen ones feel that way. Now if you expect the feel of a 6oz cotton from a 12oz fabric its a different story. They are heavy and robust and about as soft as you can get a fabric to feel at this weight.

Most/all UHF's patterns/colourways feel subtlety different from each other. This is because different dyes create different characteristics in the yarn and different weaves create different textured fabric.

Oh my! I wish I’d never said anything [emoji3526][emoji85][emoji3526] Although, for the record, I have the heavyweight flannels from UES and they are as soft as butter. And I have the IH Kersey shirts and the 14oz denim shirts and they are gorgeous too! Really lovely fabrics on all of those.
And that’s it. That’s all I’m ever going to say now on scratchiness or otherwise of any IH shirt! [emoji1374]

Please do not feel like you have to censor yourself on here. It's what makes this the forum so unique, though sometimes a bit brash. Its rarely personal and other viewpoints and perspectives create much more depth of conversation.
With that being said, I've owned way too much UHF's in my lifetime (before they even coined the term lol) and I think I understand what was trying to be conveyed. They're heavy duty flannels which in most cases reward the more wears you have on it. So if you expect something comfy and buttery (ie. silk-blend) from the get-go, you might not be as impressed.
As Giles stated, each fabric is different every year, model, and run. The one thing that is a perpetual constant is quality, which tends to far exceed mine for a flannel haha (except for that one turquoise block check run).

Hello,
New to Iron Heart flannels, and was wondering if you guys knew the likelihood (if any) that there might be a restock of the IHSH-299-PUR workshirt? I was unfortunately late in seeing this beautiful piece, and it now seems to be sold out everywhere. Would appreciate a response! Much appreciated.

@Stashanddash1 Selfedge has the western available in all sizes.

As told to me by Graham, a restock of some of these will be available either this week or next week at the latest.

Well said!
@JP I don’t think you offended anyone. As someone new to these shirts, your perceptions will be different to others with more experience with them. Our personal definitions of “soft” will be different.
It’s like with the 25oz being famed for being like “sweatpants” with wear. Objectively, they clearly aren’t, however relatively speaking it is amazing that such thick, rigid denim can be transformed into something so comfortable.

Will this mini restock include size 4xl?

No problem. Thanks!
