IHSH-442-SAX - 9oz Selvedge Flannel Check Work Shirt - Sax Blue

@indigo_fades Same. I didn't plan to buy this one but hours later caved and got a 3x from Self Edge. The struggle is real.

[Brandrea]

I missed this one on the IH website so I just purchased from Dutil Denim in Toronto

[hippieflipflops]

Having such a hard time choosing between small and medium. I have sizes in both. Always concerned with the length of flannels

[Brandrea]

@hippieflipflops I sized up on this one. I did a lot of humming and hawing … and waited too late while my regular size sold out here.

Ultimately, the size chart on this one looked a lot like the XXL in the Western 439, so I took a chance and I bought a XXXL from a retailer here. It should be here tomorrow

[hippieflipflops]

@Brandrea yeah I think I’m going to take a risk and go with medium. There’s still a lot of smalls in self edge. Worst case scenario and exchange it for a small one. Mediums seem to be sold out on most retailers. I have a medium Yellow ombré flannel that I managed to shrink damn near perfect.

[Brandrea]

@hippieflipflops Hope you score one . Such a great piece!

[Gorbeh]

Colors are cool, really bright, fun shirt. I don't really like the buttons tbh

[Chibs]

@Gorbeh looks good! Curious, what don’t you like about the buttons?

[Gorbeh]

@Chibs thanks dude. I'm biased bc I usually get snaps. Last IH shirt I got with buttons was the Cash, they felt tough as nails. These don't really do it for me, who knows maybe I'll swap them out.

How’d you shrink it?

[Workwear]

A hot wash and warm dry can do it. Did it to one of mine.

[deathbydenim]

Nice. I got the xl in this one and to my surprise it actually fits damn near perfectly so I likely won’t need to shrink this piece, but I have another I might

[deathbydenim]

It’s so easy to second guess your size lol. Like I’ve got to Self Edge and validated that XL/42 is in fact my size across many brands but obviously the size chart rules all. Sometimes the measurements are hard to interpret when measurements fall out of your expected range

[cb09]

Different stores have different measurements too. It makes things interesting for sure.

[goosehd]

@cb09 you need to verify how each store measures their shirts. Most of them will actually have an information page stating how they measure.

[VegaS10]

Got the notification mine shipped out today. I requested a certain shoulder measurement, and the great crew at @ShopatIronHeart found me a perfect piece.

Thanks again guys!

Original sax western on left for comparison

[Chibs]

@Denimhead-0 Almost identical except for the fading which I'm guessing is because of you OG being worn and washed. Cool!!

[Denimhead 0]

@Chibs almost too close for me to tell the difference. Someone mentioned this being bright, not this one.

[Brandrea]

I think the color might be a touch more “intense” than the UHF (maybe something to do with the OD on the UHF). I’ll compare tonight.

This is my first IH work shirt and what a gem! I was worried about the size as I’m normally a XXL in the UHF’s. This is XXXL and I think it fits pretty well (comfortable fit). FWIW, I think the buttons are very nice

EDIT: I should also give a shout out to Dutil Denim in Toronto … thank you for the prompt shipping!
