The inspiration for the first Iron Heart flannel?

With all the new 9 oz flannels dropping, what was the initial OG 9 oz’er?
You do this:
https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/18109/how-to-find-most-products-that-we-have-ever-released
But back then, people were not as obsessed with ounces as they are now, so we didn't really bother talking about it.
-
@Giles if I recall, it was more about the descriptors like shaggy or big check or metallic
-
Yeah, and I got myself all screwed up with naming too. What was to become UHF, was originally known as "Heavy Flannel", and then "Super Heavy", and then for a period we had an "Extra Heavy" that was not as heavy as what was to become UHF, so when we released and even heavier flannel, I had to think of something that was heavier than "Extra" or "Super', hence 'Ultra'.
The reason that the IHSH-01 is described as UHF, is that thread was created years after we actually released the shirt, and by then UHF was a thing.......

Totally, @Anesthetist . I have some of those early flannels (and covet others!), but they really varied a lot more in terms of weight, texture and brushing. I miss that, personally.
-
@Giles I love all those shirts. My first shirt was the 22 I believe which was the big check.
-
@Anesthetist @Giles I gotta go back through the archive and see some of these. I don't have all of my originals, but there are a few that I can't imagine parting with.

@sabergirl I'm about ready to break out the 137. Spring weight, yellow and blue. This flannel has seen things.
-
My blue 137 is another one that doesn’t fit great any more, but it’s one of the best color ways ever IMO @StarsSuck
-
@sabergirl I suppose I should start prowling our marketplace for anyone getting rid of flannels that might not fit anymore
