IHDR-434-ABC - 14oz Fox Brothers® Arsenic Barleycorn Flannel CPO Shirt - Grey

@SKT Thank you.  I was reading about the forearms and sizing which lead to my question.

I think if you don’t have a problem with wool sensitivity you’ll be good. The medium forearms are definitely snug on me but not uncomfortably so.

Are these sewn in Japan?

This is my rate limiting factor as well…..I would love to downsize but am just unsure.

Yes,  the fabric is bought by us here in the UK.  We then ship it to Japan to be made into garments in Iron Heart workshops.  Just like all the previous ones….

Been waiting for this for months. I remember seeing this shirt on IG from division road. It was much more grey than blue here. Can't wait to see this on a model in some more natural lighting.

Was that the consensus on sizing from the last run?  Size down from UHF westerns or TTS?

I don't think there was real consensus.

I sized down from XL to L (measurements were a tiny bit more generous compared to this). In my case it worked, but only for a very specific use. It's not only forearms, which are quite narrow indeed, but the way fabric behaves. If I use anything heftier underneath the shirt does not drape nicely and feels sticky on me. With only a thin T-shirt underneath it's great, but changing that to IH 1600 11oz and I'm kind of wishing more room.

Would I change to XL now? I don't know really. But if I was about to purchase other one with different color I would probably pick my usual XL

If it isnt a huge bother, could someone please measure the forearm on their medium or large about 2-3” from the elbow? I know this isnt a perfectly accurate way to measure this but I have pretty thick arms for a skinny guy and hate feeling constricted there. Thanks all!

This is an easy “yes” for me. It might be very overpriced but I’m a huge wool shirt fan and like scratchiness. I don’t care if the wool is fine or coarse, soft or hard, the more the better. The Fox Brothers wool though is soft and comfy. I endorse it.

Will we have IH Crew fits to help with sizing? Nothing helps me more than hearing how the stubborn crew fits.

[Giles]

No. We thought we'd stop doing that, was proving so useful we actually sold stuff......

Sorry, I know I'm an arsehole and it would have been so much easier to type "yes"......

[AdamJ]

@profdbrk yes! Sorry, been so caught up in new forum excitement I've neglected to share everyones sizes

Johnny wears it well! Nice fit on that.

@Anesthetist Agreed, I told him he should definitely get one of the two, perfect fit
