              It will always happen, it is part of our work flow. If we have not published it, it is not because we have forgotten, or that we want to leave you guessing, it's that other more important things need to get done first....

                    @Alex just curious as to why you didn't take this & SH-435 in the alternate cuts also as you surely would have sold all of them, or is the issue supply as much as demand?

                        @Rococo we made a deliberate decision to limit availability of UHFs to protect the supply of shirts generally speaking. We found oursleves and retailers would get overwhelmed with the choice and take too many of both cuts, then customers often would get choice paralysis by panicing over measurements between a western or a work in the same colour and end up buying neither. overall we flooded the market with too many UHFs that did not sell (see OD batch of late) and damaged the shirts factory's ability to make other shirts at the same time.

                            Funny thing is, in the old days we would only release UHF's in either western or work. I got so much shit from customers bitching about not doing western when we only did work and vice versa, that I started doing both cuts in all UHF's. It went swimmingly well for a few years, then it didn't.

                                The current plan is good. If you made them all the way I wanted.... I'd be in real trouble on the home front 😂. The paralysis is quite real too as I wanted so badly to but a blue UHF yesterday but held off for this shirt which I haven't seen the measurements yet. So a slight gamble! Appreciate you guys.

                                          This'll be my first UHF, assuming I'm quick enough to snag one.

                                          Could I get advice from staffers or UHF owners on sizing?

                                          I measured a flannel shirt I own per the Iron Heart Youtube video, and came away with:
                                          Shoulders: 18.25 “
                                          Length: 30.5 “
                                          Chest P2P: 21 “
                                          Waist: 20.25 “
                                          Sleeve: 24.625 “

                                          If it helps, I own the IH-526-142 in size 40, and it fits perfectly.

                                          I'm guessing I'm a Large in this. Thoughts?

                                            The measurements for this shirt are not published yet, but you will most likely be a medium or large, depending on which dimensions are most important to you.
