              Tempted to write to them and thank them for the flattery. But calling them Ultra Heavy Flannel really is a bit rich.....

                @Giles I wouldn't have posted that this morning had they not called them UHFs. I was like WTF.

                    @Alex Maybe they might ask you to stop using the UHF term in stead 🙃

                        Yes but. Those out there says is heavy.

                        There no stubbornness compare to Iron Heart.

                        A lot of the Oz Feels lighter.

                        Shocking to say it’s heavier.

                          @Giles @Alex I'd have thought that the terms "UHF" and "Ultra Heavy Flannel" might be trademark-able, but consult an intellectual property lawyer to be sure.

                                My first thought was: why do that just to save like a hundred bucks? Quality may be good, I have no idea—but I’ll bet it doesn’t match Iron Heart. Couldn’t possibly get the same customer service. So, just why? If it were cheap, that would be another thing—but that’s still a pricy flannel.

                                  @sabergirl The reviews I’ve seen online are pretty consistent in that the quality/construction/sizing is shite. Could be my bias interpreting those reviews…

                                    @goosehd thinking that they put the best pictures on the webpage, even there the stitching quality is all over the place. Its an utter lack of consistency.

                                      One of the bigger denimfluencers even told me that they pay people and/or give stuff for free to share on instagram about how great SoSo is. That they happen to suddenly be all over my feed was a bad sign, what I saw on the web about production and quality it was proof about my first impression

                                            @FlavourFade With the amount of clearance they seem to have, and the fact that they're following is....well, I can't even find one - I don't consider them even remotely being on the same level as Iron Heart.

                                            But it's not just in reference to the quality that speaks for itself here, it's more so in regard to how a product can change a person, and apply a sense of growth to said persons life, which contenders just don't seem to be capable of.

                                            Iron Heart has become more than it set out to be, by extending itself into the hearts of those who wear the goods, and you just can't buy that kind of review/response.

                                            They may make jeans and jackets ect, but I can't find another denim company that has made a worldwide community/family like this one. That's the main difference I see personally.

                                            Just thought I'd throw that out there 😋✊
