    @Giobcn Self Edge sort of replaced the 301 with the 777, so I think they’d say that. The 555 is probably the other most similar in that it’s slim.

        777 is the only one that really bears a similarity. Rise was super low on the 301, with an aggressive taper starting at the thigh.

          @Alex seeing @Mizmazzle post today regarding work shirt cut, I feel like I'm seeing more people gravitate towards work that were traditionally western. Are there any figures you'd be willing to share to corroborate or debunk this? %Wrk vs %wstrn sold? Are you ordering differently due to a swing?

            @jordanscollected this is an interesting postulation. I 100% prefer a UHF in work cut. I love my westerns in denim or other unique fabrics. But work shirts are so comfortable and easy to wear that this is where I lean more and more these days.

              @Mizmazzle Must be a 50+ thing. @Matt feels the same 😉

                @Mizmazzle Work shirts rarely work for me. When the length is right it's usually too wide and sloppy looking. When the width is right it's too short. Ive got a couple of work shirts among many westerns, so that's definitely my preference. I also have the good fortune of being semi-in-between-sizes for Western cuts, so I normally go up the half size to XL in UHF for a more comfy fit and down the half size to things in harder faced denser fabrics like denim or serge.

                        @Mizmazzle my view on human relationships and life has been shaped by the Simpsons and married with children. Make of that what you will

                          @Tago-Mago growing up as a kid, those shows always aired back to back.
                          When I moved to South America, I learned to speak Spanish by watching The Simpsons down there in Spanish. I knew every episode by heart so it helped me immensely with understanding and learning new vocabulary.

                                    Honestly I kind of just changed preferences. I like the clean look of no yokes, larger armpit openings, gussets etc. Probably because I’m so old as was pointed out.

                                      I have 2 IH Work shirts,and the only reason I have them is because they have snaps. There have been some shirts where the work shirt sizing would’ve been better than the western shirt,and I ultimately passed on said shirt.

                                          @jordanscollected I think work shirts are getting more popular, but we still make more western shirts than work shirts, so sales data will still show westerns being more popular than works..
