        @Chibs

        Thank you for that. I hope to try them on here (Blue Button in Toronto carries the brand). My only reservation on the slim fit was the hem … I like a wider opening but these aren’t too restrictive really … your Levi’s comparison is very helpful.

        As for the shirt, I love this thing (wearing it today as a matter of fact). The OrSlow fatigue shirt has a nice almost “nepy” feel to it, and I just love the color … I was really hoping for that deep dark brown/black color that comes out in your photos and that’s exactly what it is! My only complaint with the OrSlow shirt is the opening … it’s huge (size 4 in the shirt and the pants ). I’m an XXL in IH UHF’s and 35 in 21oz 634’s (34 in 666). I may take it to my tailor to see if she can bring it in around the body a touch but understanding it’s supposed to be a boxy fit I may just have to get used to it.

        As for the Filson shirt-Jac,… it’s spot on, wouldn’t change a thing. The fabric is smooth and just feels awesome to wear. The color is gorgeous too (and I'm not really a “green guy” lol. The sleeve length and the shoulders and body length are just perfect (for me).

        I’d better not look at too many more of your posts … it was an expensive week 🙂

        They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery …. Hope you don’t mind:)

          @Brandrea that’s awesome! I’m in Toronto too and got my original green pair of slim fit fatigue pants from Blue Button shop. Also got my Buz Rickson shirt there. Really nice staff! The 4 of them watched me waver between a medium and large in that Rickson shirt for over a half hour. They all convinced me to get the large and were totally right in the end. If they don’t have stock you can also check out Uncle Otis on Spadina. They normally have a bunch of Orslow stuff too. Nothing close to Withered Fig if you don’t mind customs fees.
          Interesting about the shirt being too big, mine fits perfect in size 2. Even a bit better than the Filson but that’s probably splitting hairs. Either way, glad you like em! Very expensive week indeed. Got my 526PJ and eyeballing that Self edge CPO 🙈 Going to try my best to resist on Saturday 😅

            Great to see you’re from Toronto! I’m actually from outside the city near Waterloo Ontario (St Jacobs), but I get into the city every now and then.

            I ended up buying from Whithered Fig since they had all the sizes and colors I wanted. I also picked up the fatigue shorts as well. In the end it was actually less expensive than buying in Canada even with the customs .. go figure. You’re right about Blue Button, they’re fantastic. I bought my IH M65 there last fall.

            Resistance is futile 🙂

                @Chibs I think you’d like them … they’re based on the slim fit fatigue top block!

                  @Chibs @Brandrea Great to see some local Toronto and Southern Ontario boys geek out on Orlsow. I'm in Toronto as well.

                  I really like my Orlsow fatigue pants (Green and Khaki) and just added the green fatigue shirt like you boys. Black fatigue pants will be next for me.

                  Very under rated brand IMO.

                  Cheers.

                    I'm trying to decide between the straight cut and the slim straight olive fatigues, anyone tried both on and have a preference? My favorite IH cut is the 634 so I was wary of the slim straights at first just because of the name, but they don't look that slim to me at all.

                        @freepickin I have tried both. The slims are like Levi’s 501’s. The straight cut would definitely be baggier than your 634s.

                          Okay so this forum is great! Every so often I click on “unread topics” and this morning upon doing just that, I saw a bunch of Orslow stuff for sale. Including a basically new pair of fatigue shorts in my size and the colour I wanted. I met with Rob @labrat who turns out to be a very cool guy!
                          Both if us wearing 21oz type 3’s! His is the vest.

                          Tried them on and they fit effing perfect. Better than I thought!

                          These are my new favourite shorts! So comfortable just like the fatigue pants we know and love. Thanks again @labrat!!

                              I wasn’t sure which way to go either but settle on the regular fit. The hem on the regulars is around 9”and the slim is around 7.75”.

                              I think either would work really, but for me it came down to which ones I could wear with my boots.

                                @freepickin @Chibs I have both and agree with Jordan. Personally, I think the slim fit is more flattering. Though these days, everything’s big and oversized—can’t go wrong with either!

                                  @Chibs I've been eyeing the shorts but hoping to find someplace to try it on before I commit. They look great on you! Can I also ask what chambray you're wearing?

                                    anyone have any advice on new yorker pant sizing? I'm a 3 in the fatigue pants and a 33 in most iron heart jeans – trying to decide between the 3 and the 4 for the new yorkers.

                                        @akohut definitely a 3, unless you are really tall and need the extra length

                                            I’ve had both…I’m currently wearing the regular fit(green) as the hem on the slim was too small for tall boots.

                                            I’ve noticed some differences depending on the color of the fatigues, the green regular fit seems to be slimmer than the regular ecru. So I wear the slim fit with the ecru, regular with the green. I wear size 5 so take this with a grain of salt as there may be larger differences in the bigger sizes???

                                            Either way you can’t go wrong but personally I don’t like too baggy of a fit.
