IHSH-441-BLK - 9oz Selvedge Flannel Check Work Shirt - Black

[jshop]

OK, found one:

Yes, stripes are different.

[jshop]

Thanks for the photos, @Ross.

For me the new set up of the stripes looks totally wrong. Almost as odd as with the purple shirt.

Damn, wanted to spend almost 700 € for two shirts but again, I pass!

@Ross Is it possible to buy the sample shirt in XXL from you?

@jshop

Doubt the sample will be XXL.

[goosehd]

Samples are almost always large or XL.

Yeah, but they measure the shirts, right? So do they have only one sample?

[goosehd]

@jshop pre production and the answer is yes. Once the shirts are shipped to IHUK, they are measured by the staff and the measurements chart is posted.

Sad. Removing my calendar entry for this shirt, too. Hope autumn will bring some fresh purple wonders with correct stripes. Like all the other shirts before.

[Tago Mago]

@jshop yes. The sample is a one-off pre-production. The measurements are taken once IHUK has received the finished production run

[jshop]

@Tago-Mago Thanks. If there was an XXL looking like your pre-prod sample, I would buy it.

Thought Giles said somewhere most samples come in Harakis size.

[goosehd]

@1WayTrip Yep, large or XL

[Giles]

Typically samples are run in L. That is Haraki's size (and by happy happenstance mine too), making them in a common size that works for H, allows him to properly assess sizing and any sizing tweaks that are required..

And how the stripes fall in the end product is a function of the size of the shirt. Getting the stripes/pattern to fall exactly in the same place on different sizes is impossible without wasting a shit ton of fabric. Saying that these differ from previous shirts is tautological, of course they do, it's a different pattern....

@Nick Great pics. Looks hella-sharp.

[Chibs]

@jshop Get excited.

@Chibs

I feel like I’m having déjà vu

Before we end up with two threads with similar themes, please keep the comments made in jest to a minimum. Please…

So show me another shirt of your end product. In XXL, please. Does it look different? That would be nice!

@jshop

I suggest you take your comments about the stripe pattern over to customer service at IH in a direct manner. Perhaps they can look into an XXL and send you some pictures or whatever it is you require to satisfy your need. We already know your thoughts on the photos here.

Bad idea! Every customer in the world with the same questions, and I am sure there are many, will profit from the answers here.

what's the difference in the stripe pattern? It looks the same to me.
