      We used to represent TFH outside of Japan and America.  At some point, I had to make a choice about which company we could work with best/which was the easier company to work with…..I did.....

      You chose well! 😉

            The more people talk about TFH shutting down, the more I think I should also add another pair to my collection

              I never bought a pair of their jeans, but I really love their denim's appearance and have a taste for it in my wabash work shirt from them. It's very distinctive and I would love for it to live on in some form. Perhaps they could license it elsewhere.

              Think it, be it.

                I visited the Osaka flat head store two weeks ago, they seemed to have a fair amount of stock across sub labels.

                    3 weeks ago I saw TFH Jeans in Ueno, cant tell you what kind of TFH´s but I saw em.

                    TFH is/was still a brand I never was interested in. So nevermind.

                        I received an email this morning from The Flat Head and most of its core production will continue. Basically, ambitious full new collections will cease but core ranges (jeans, tees, flannels, leather) which they do so well will continue.
                        It will be interesting to see in which direction the new brand goes.

                        @Danny RnH I saw that TFH filed for 'Civil Rehab' at the end of the summer. I was just curious for a brand update…

                          Civil Rehab means basically that they need to find a buyer who will take on the debt.  That was about $10million, so I think anything Phoenix-like is unlikely….

                            The Flat Head is planning production again now. The extent of any new collections is still pretty vague but we should learn more in the next few months

                              Looks like Flat head is back in business again. Anyone know what happened? At least it looks like they has changed their sizing. Previously I was able to use "Large" size, now "Small" looks like even bigger than "Large" before. ::)

                                That's interesting to me because their largest size was like a 44 chest before, everything was extra medium. Even when I was super skinny theor stuff was always way too small for me.

                                    I don't know about the t-shirts, but the flannels on sale at Self Edge have definitely increased in size. Size 44 used to be 44" chest, now size 44 is 48" chest. Their flannels are good but its hard to top Iron Heart there. What The Flat Head did so well were the dobby stripe shirts and native check shirts. I hope that those return.

                                      After being pampered by IH for so long, sizing on The Flat Head has always been an issue for me.

                                        They are one of the few brands other than IH I've gotten stuff from and haven't been disappointed with (them and Indigofera). I had a white, grey, and green flannel from them I thought was awesome. But it was way too small, so I returned it.  😢

                                        I wouldn't ever buy another brand of jeans again besides IH though. But some of the Indigofera shirts are really great and not that expensive for what you get.

                                          Why's that? Personally I keep trying to buy other brands, but can't bring myself to do so.

                                            Other brands weight doesn’t match in oz... IH is heavier in oz

                                            For sample the PBJ 22oz feels like 18oz...
