IHSH-431-BRN - Slubby Heavy Flannel Check Western Shirt - Brown
-
I sized up to a XL (I have the Watermelon in L).
I tried the L in brown, but it was way too tight around the chest and too short.
The XL feels a little roomy , but it should fit better once it’s been washed right
Appreciate the gift!

@Ikeaparty booooooooooo

Sized up to Medium for my first western. Length, shoulders and chest all good but sleeves maybe a bit long and not sure about how much material there is bunching? Risk a 40 degree wash to try and settle it down maybe? The Small will almost certainly be too narrow in shoulders and chest. Such a great colourway, shame to have to return it.

@IronLungs wear as long as you can before washing.

I also never throw mine in the dryer. I hang dry all my IH clothes. An I forgot about the Xmas chocolate! Best ever

I just wanted to share my IH slubby brown story even though it is not the western version. Over the weekend I went to visit my elderly parents and my dad was wearing a “affordable” flannel from Costco that he commented was not very warm, he gets cold easily, he is 95. Even with a undershirt and a old warn out vest it was not enough. I was wearing my brown slubby over a shirt nd I hd taken it off and was hanging on a chair. I mentioned that he should try it on so he could feel the warmth and weight that a IH flannel provides. I need to add that he is essentially blind, with less than 5 percent vision in one eye but he does what he can to make that 5 percent matter. As soon as I started helping put it on him I knew I was in a jam, he immediately said it felt really nice and I realized my beautiful, brand new shirt was rapidly becoming his! My mother commented that he looked handsome in it and he said Marianna (mom, 85), do I look handsome in it and she said “honey you look handsome in it”. Thats when I just smiled and accepted that my shirt that I said on this very forum that I feel for the guy who tries to stop me from getting in my way of this shirt. I just did not think it would be a 95 year old man who I respect and love dearly. So I guess my threat was more bark than bite. I love that shirt but nothing the feeling of seeing him wear that shirt all day looking and feeling like a million bucks. It found its true owner. It think it is so amazing how this brand makes you feel when you wear it. It is more than just clothing, it is a feeling. I did jokingly tell him that it was just a 7 year loan, I hope it is 8! I love this man.
