The Flat Head

[jimcord]

@SKT i agree, the fabric is so soft, hairy, get feels so soft! I ended up buying it in both colors in lo g sleeve and short sleeve!

[DeeDee85]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot purple/ivory and red/black are inbound so I’ll take some pics when they arrive also picked up a turquoise/purple Real McCoys border tee so I’m looking forward to seeing which is better

[DeeDee85]

@jimcord the FH t-shirts are now best in class in my eyes. I managed to get a couple of brighter colours from Corlection’s recent sale for around £60 each and avoided customs fees too so I was very happy with that!

@DeeDee85 I’ve almost bought that purple/ivory shirt 20 times. Excited for you man, sounds like you got some good stuff incoming.

[DeeDee85]

@ZackB thanks man, I’ve definitely had a recent summer t-shirt splurge I’ll get some pics uploaded when they arrive

[DeeDee85]

@ZackB @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot so today was stripey tee delivery day.. the turquoise/purple is a Real McCoys but thought I’d post it here for a comparison. The McCoys is an XL while the Flat Head tees are 46 which is XXXL I believe?
First impressions, all three are fantastic but the McCoys is a much looser knit and is beautifully soft and drapes straight away.
Anyone on the fence about the FH ivory/purple get it ordered, it is stunning!
Favourite? Tough one between the two purples

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@DeeDee85 looking CHAMP, man! Thanks for the pics. The turquoise with the purple shorts is MINT

Sweet snags, sir!

[DeeDee85]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot I thought that when I tried them on, a happy accident!

@DeeDee85 Love the Buco but don't have the sizing; want it baggier than it will come up. Looks great though

[pechelman]

where'd you get the buco/mccoys stripe tee @DeeDee85 ?

[DeeDee85]

@will6er thank you, McCoys are definitely a bit trickier to size.. it’s unfortunate there’s no XXL in the Buco stripe tees.. I have a couple of McCoys sweatshirts which are borderline too small for me in XL but the XXL’s were literally 5 inch bigger pit to pit bizarrely

[DeeDee85]

@pechelman this was direct from therealmccoys.com still small, medium, large available. Also a cool orange/navy option I now think I need after handling this one. My wife instantly said it’s the nicest tee I’ve ever bought when I opened it, so it has her approval whatever that’s worth

[pechelman]

Thanks @DeeDee85 !

Did you find their sizing chart pretty accurate?
Also any idea about shrinkage on this?

[DeeDee85]

@pechelman the sizing chart is pretty much spot on yes, I maybe could have made a large work for a more fitted look but went with XL to allow for a little shrinkage. I’ll report back after it’s had its first wash

[ZackB]

@DeeDee85 some excellent choices man. They all look great. I think the real McCoys is the star of the show but that purple ivory tee is so dope too

[jimcord]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot lol! We have the same taste!! I bought that shirt. It is a good purple that works well with the ivory! Do you go directly to TFH and purchase from Japan? I do.

[DeeDee85]

@ZackB thank you very much! If I was only keeping one I’d take the McCoys actually too.. much looser knit for summer. I do feel like the flat head tees will last longer though, they are so solid

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@jimcord sweet!

Never been to Japan, regrettably. But I’ve got a solid connection at Private & Co. In Vancouver who has been able to special order me pretty whatever I’m after from TFH….

Buco is my fav of the bunch

[jimcord]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot cool! Glad you found the hook up. Saves quite a bit of money, they also help out with IH? Hope so!
