IHSH-237-BLK - Ultra Heavy Flannel Crazy Check Western Shirt - Black
-
-
I got the red flannel from last fall's 3Sixteen collection and it feels comparable in weight, maybe a little lighter. Hard to say because it has a very uneven texture.
Flat Head has done some flannels that weigh about the same as this UHF, and I'm pretty sure the super heavy houndstooth is even thicker, but I haven't bought a new FH shirt in years and I'm not sure exactly what their fabrics are like these days.
My preference is for medium-weight flannel, but I like these super heavy shirts too

I love my UHF's but I also like lightweight flannels for Spring/Fall wear. I get warm easily so tend to save my UHF's strictly for freezing temps in the teens or below.

Yep those are the 3sixteen ones I was referring to that I think are 10oz. I got the blue one.

Glad to see the 237 selling like crack. Whoever it is that designs these flannel patterns should get a round of applause (Tom-san perhaps?)

@doguhanca great fit mate

Thanks @Max Power
I knew before purchasing that the arm length was going to be slightly longer which is why I gave the shirt a no-spin-wash at 60 degree celsius. I prefer my UHFs slightly shorter in the back than to be seen on my original post. I feel like the post-wash fit is even much much better.
For anybody who's been wondering: There will be a loss in the arm and over all length so be aware of that. If you need the extra shrinkage, definitely go for it. I'm very satisfied and happy with the post-wash fit!
Note: These photos were taken right after the wash, the photos in my original post were taken right after receiving them.

With thanks to @Graham for helping me out. I'm pretty damn happy with this one…and what is it with the smell of brand new UHFs? Such a manly smell. I love it

It's The Boss and mastermind himself 8).
Oh for sure. He definitely sketches everything out, I was just curious if the pattern/color combo was something he also develops or if he has someone like Tom-san doing this. Either way, it’s a great colorway [emoji108]

He designs the fabric, right down to the content, thread size, weave etc. The check patterns I think are mostly his, but the c/w’s have different origins. The green and brown classic checks from last year were mocked up and developed by Alex Padmore after people threw some ideas around on here. Paula came up with the T/G colourway about five years ago.

Nice ^^^ So the green 107 and sax 207 are all you need to complete the Fivetecta (yes I'm aware this is probably not a word)
I still kick myself for dropping the ball on the Sax 207 last year.
