IHSH-264-NAV - Ultra Heavy Flannel Ombré Check Western Shirt - Navy/Black
-
Good evening guys and gals…I recently purchased a new IHSH-264 from a Stockist in the US and I noticed something a bit strange. Every other Iron Heart shirt I own (including 3 other UHF westerns and a newly acquired Wabash work shirt) have the "Genuine Quality Iron Heart -- Made in Japan" with the care instructions painted (or screen printed) inside the shirt on the left. However, this new IHSH-264 is completely blank inside. Is Iron Heart no longer including this cool detail inside the UHF flannels? Did this one slip past QC without the printing? Any insight would be greatly appreciated...thanks!
As a general rule, it is no longer being included.

My first piece of Iron Heart clothing! I found a shop that had one 2XL in stock, I probably would have (and should have, if they had one) gone 3XL but damn, I can see why folks are such big fans of IH. It fits great I just wish I had a hair more room in the chest. I can’t tell you how nice it is to get a shirt and not hate the sleeve length. I’m short and stout, so sleeves are always a complaint of mine. I don’t have much more weight to lose, but hopefully the chest will open up a little more while I continue the weight loss journey.

Just be careful how you wash it. i.e. avoid hot washing and certainly do not tumble dry….
Most of my tees and socks are merino, so cold/delicate and a hang dry is already the name of the game! It’s currently drying right now, I think it shrunk a hair, but it should be fine. It fits perfect everywhere else.

IHUK Guys, Any chance on a restock? In dire need of one in my collection lol. Thanks in advance.
-
With a trade i got one of these! Nice shirt
-
@Alex can I assume that 9 months on from your last update, it is unlikely these will be restocked this year?
-
Boys, any update on potential restock? This is what I have my sights on, UHF’s this year were too long in the arms.
-
I too would love for this to be restocked but fear that it won’t be any time soon
-
@Alex with the shortages of aspero cotton, does it make it even more unlikely that we will ever see this shirt again?
-
@IrishHeart no, but we are being more considered in what flannels to run when…
-
@Alex any news or updates regarding a possible restock of this shirt? Would be awesome to see some of the continues production classics again.

I'm glad this is going to be restocked. I hope I can find a good one, though. One of the reasons I haven't pulled the trigger on an Iron Heart flannel yet is because IH seems to be the only of the main high-end Japanese heavy flannel brands that doesn't line up the checks/lines. I really don't know why. It would really improve them visually. Hopefully, Self Edge gets some in so I can see the options before purchasing one.
This is what I mean by 'lining up the checks/lines'

@xaqh This was a response from @Ross concerning another one of the flannels that you had mentioned:
@Ross said in IHSH-411-BLK - 9oz Selvedge Indigo Check Flannel Western Shirt - Black:
@xaqh Totally piece by piece, it's very unlikely that any of them will be perfectly symmetrical - Same goes for basically any of our flannels
In the example above, the model wearing the IH flannel is not standing straight which I believe is the reason you see the lines not running 90 degrees vertical in comparison to the flathead. If the model was standing with his shoulders more squared, then the lines would run better.
Just my $.02
