@pechelman I will do a 64 : Tricotine comparison for you in a few days once this lands!

Blue Owl Workshop is releasing the Tricotine and the Amundsen Friday at 10 AM PT.

Got mine today and all I can say is "wow". Now I see what all the fuss is about. First impression when I took it out of the box was...damn this is heavy. IIRC it is supposed to be a 15.5oz fabric but I have several flannels in the 12oz-14.5oz range and they are nothing like this. The closest thing I can compare it to would be a cross between an extremely heavy twill and a flannel. It's totally unique so that's really the best I can do. I am 6' 205lbs and the size 5 is perfect for me, not quite as much room as my XXXL IH workshirts but not snug, plenty of room in the chest and body. I'm not a fan of form fitting clothes so take that into consideration. Here are some pics of it on me, for color reference I am wearing IH 17oz 888 in natural indigo with one wash. The fabric pic should give you a better idea of what the fabric is like...the looser weave on the top is a UES Heavy (14.5oz) flannel in indigo. The bottom fabric is the Tricotine, you can see how much tighter the weave is. I do have one small complaint about the shirt but it's a complaint I have about most of the Japanese brands...the sleeves are a tad too tight. I'm not a big man with big arms and these sleeves are definitely some of the slimmer sleeves I have in my closet.

@Mizmazzle The answer is both. I have the Amundsen and want to get the selvedge heavy flannel. It's a disease.

Damn you all. In for one from Iron Shop Provisions

You won't regret it, it's a special piece and ISP is a great store...love those guys.
-
@edgarallanpoe I agree ISP is excellent.
@Buckeye which size did you grab? I was messaging with Josh from ISP last night to see what the stock looked like and he told me he only had 1-2 size 3s in stock. I was at the computer and ready to go when the clock struck 9....after I got a size 3 that size was sold out....i'm curious if there was only one in that size after all... -
@Mizmazzle hey! I’m an XXL in IH, and went with a size 5 given the advice above regarding shrinkage!
-
@Mizmazzle yea!!!! Finally.

Certainly not a burden for the faint of heart. Forum members aside could not handle this responsibility

@flannel-slut it’s like Uncle Ben said, “Everyone should have rice in one minute.”
And his lesser known quote, “with great power comes great responsibility.”
