IHSH-309-PUR - Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt - Classic Check - Purple

[Matt]

With this one and the THREE ADDITIONAL SHIRTS I bought from Buying and Selling in the past week I should be pretty well divorced by Xmas.  Thanks enablers.  Which one of you can I stay with in 2022?

@Matt You’re on a tear!  I’d offer but I’m certain that Missouri is a downgrade from New Mexico and I’ve got two kids about your girl’s age so it wouldn’t offer the calm and serenity you might be needing. Someone is bound to take you in!

[Matt]

It was totally worth it.  Two of the shirts are grail shirts for me.  I even convinced the wife they were early Father’s Day gifts so I only have to hide the other two from her.  I consider it a win.

Is this one going to be restocked?! I was scared to pull the trigger on this one and I’m really regretting it! Also, does anyone that owns the 309 also the 231? I love the weave and feel of the 231 and really hope this one feels similar… they seem to have a kinda similar weave.

@Memphisakers:

Almost certainly not, I’m afraid. If it were a possibility it would have already happened.

[Memphisakers]

Thanks Neph93  I was afraid of that.

The western shirt not sold in Japan, just the work shirt. So there is no ability to restock….

[Memphisakers]

Thanks Giles    I will keep a lookout for one on the secondary market.

Think there’s a purple ombré planned for FW22 which should be beautiful.

[Daniel San]

ombré is not my favourite UHF pattern but in purple … maybe the
first ombré for me then

[Memphisakers]

I had the large that recently got added in my cart, got nervous about wearing a purple shirt and bailed on it. It sold immediately! Now I really wish I would have bought it… I can pull off a purple shirt! What was I thinking?

[Matt]

It’s here and it only took 28 days via Royal Mail from London to New Mexico. I half expected the envelope to be covered in stamps and stickers like in a Loony Toons cartoon.  I’ll get some photos up when I’m properly dressed. The girls and I are all in quarantine.  I’ll shower eventually.

Thanks @JP. It fits great and I as worth the wait.

@Matt new research shows that mario kart and UHFs are humanity’s best chance against omicron

[Matt]

I can’t argue with that.  My extensive research in the field this week is bearing fruit to be sure.

IMO, the 309 is one of the most beautiful UHFs to date. I waited on buying one only to nab the last one a while back. Is it just me or is the 309 even softer than a typical UHF? It must be magic…..

It does seem like the inside is more brushed than usual.  I was surprised that what I thought was white in photos is actually light grey.  I previously asked why it has black snaps instead of white but now I can see that they go nicely.  I’m very excited to wear it.

[SKT]

@Matt  man I’m glad that shirt finally showed up after it’s harrowing journey. Home at last!

[Matt]

I may try to wear it today but it would require the greatest of concentration in order to Jedi mind trick the wife into believing it’s not new.

Give a her a few, lots of drinks
