@JerkStore I am totally with you. I will not buy the shirt if it looks like presented on the web site. However, the work shirt is beautiful.

@AdamJ Is it possible for you to ask the team from Japan?
It will be what it will be. We will not waste the Japan teams time asking questions that make no difference whatever the answer is, it will not change what they are They have enough to do without, distractions such as this. If you do not like the western because it is not how you like it, don't buy it.
We have noted some concerns about the make-up of these shirts. If when we receive them we feel that the pattern matching could have been done in a better way, we will mention it to H when we are with him in Japan next week. If we don't think it is an issue, we will not bring it up.

@jshop follow their instagram, that might give you some insight...
Did that. Looks, like the shirt has got this odd looking. Well, for me Iron Heart creates the best looking shirts and I try to collect every purple shirt, because I am totally into purple. This time however, I pass.
Would be really nice if the purple work shirt, with the (for me) correct look, would hit the European market.

We get it that you are upset, but maybe it’s time to move on. You’re not going to accomplish anything complaining about something that can’t be changed.
Sorry it’s worked out for you this way.
Yes, you are right. I am pretty sad. And yes, moving on.

At the heart of the matter, is that true IH customers were just asking if the first pictures were a production sample. The design is very different from pretty much any pattern I have seen for the flannels. No one with any sense was asking IH to change how they designed the shirt. The issue is that some people, and it seemed like IH folks chimed in with answers that were not answers and continued to leave the issue unresolved. Now the message is leave us alone, we are all too busy to figure out what the shirt is actually going to look like or it is what it is or will be - with maybe finally an IH person saying the shirt will have the double stripes.
Frankly, I see customers all very excited about the color, and some customers asking a design question as the pictured design, is pretty far off from other IH 12 oz of 9oz flannels (not all) and just wanting information, credible information to be ready to make a commitment of $400 or not. If folks do not like it, of which I am one, that is our issue, but it was kinda a bummer to see the IH folks and others start bagging on people, when if you read this thread the information about IH's OWN shirt was all of the place.
Totally, just clothes. No doubt you will sell out. But you have a forum for people to ask questions. Questions were asked and not actually answered and anyone on this forum is way more than just a fan of the products.

I by no means speak for IH. I’m a customer, just like you.
That said, my understanding has always been that samples often aren’t 100% accurate representative of the finished product.
So until IH UK receives the shirts they won’t know, and I don’t think it’s unreasonable for us (being customers) to simply wait until the shipment is received.
Furthermore, if you did order the shirt and make a note in the order asking to ship you one with a symmetric pattern, I’m certain IH would and if they can’t they’ll tell you straight up.

The shirt looks great, and plenty of us genuinely like it. I don’t really understand why some people are reacting so strongly—if it’s not your style, you can simply choose not to buy it.
The negativity feels unnecessary and doesn’t add anything constructive to the discussion. A bit harsh too.
From my own experience, IH staff consistently go above and beyond to provide detailed information and helpful advice, always taking the time to support customers properly. The level of care, attention, and customer service they offer is, in my opinion, among the best and I can guarantee you will not find it in other brands/retailers easy. -
Photo from another site for some perspective, looks like its all contingent on the size you order.
Can't wait to get one.

Maybe call it the "Purple Rain" shirt
