@flannel-slut that N1 looks majestic.. everything about this fabric screams class

Acrylic lining though.. something about that material that makes me uncomfortable... I had a cheap Acrylic sweater as a teenager from Levi's that would squeek in such a horrible way when stretched slightly, gave me the same unpleasant sensation as running your nails down a blackboard!

In a way, it was my distaste for that sweater that led me to better quality clothing...

So thank you Acrylic for bringing me Iron Heart

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@Mizmazzle thanks, dude! I have two pieces from UES, that flannel and this wool hunting jacket, both in size 3. I’m also around 5’10” and 170. The hybrid description of the flannel by @SaddleSC is spot on - great shirt, no doubt.

[flannel slut]

@T4920 great spot on the acrylic man. I can resist in peace

[SaddleSC]

@T4920 The acrylic killed the UES N1 for me too, brother! I was watching Josh's launch video over at ISP and was hovering over the buy button and then he got to the collar + liner material. The good news it, that sure makes it a lot easier to resist!

The lack of other "nicities" that I have come to expect with the IH N1 Deck Jackets also lessened my enthusiasm...

The Tricotine is KILLER...but I will wait until next year and hopefully Iron Heart will do another Indigo N1!!!

[JunkPants]

I was surprised by that liner material myself. I can see it making sense for those in not so cold climates though. The Iron Heart N1 jackets are very warm.

Can anyone who has the UES Tricotine Work Shirt provide info on sizing? Torn between a M & L (normally L in IH) ...

[flannel slut]

@T4920 I haven't compared measurement charts but IMO, the tricotine fits similar to a UHF work shirt cut and slightly fuller in the chest and shoulders than a western cut. I'm in between large and medium on UHF westerns (mostly prefer large these days to avoid button pull), mostly a medium in UHF work shirts and went with a medium for the tricotine... one of the few shirts I did not second guess if I sized correctly. Hope this helps some.

[T4920]

@flannel-slut Yeh large is probably the right choice, but it's suddenly sold on Redcast between me checking earlier and now...

Maybe next year!

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

Stole this from @flannel-slut when he wasn’t looking….

[flannel slut]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot hahah awwwwe shiv!!

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

Love the colour

[stitchdown.shell]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Nice cap, buddy. Where do you get your UES stuff? I"m a big fan of the brand.

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

@stichdown-shell thanks dude! Here, there, and everywhere…. The cap and coat I snagged from Iron Shop Provisions in the States, a couple flannels from Brooklyn Clothing in Calgary, and the Tricotine was a forum purchase

[stitchdown.shell]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Cool. Noted. Thanks Jarred.

[DeeDee85]

@stichdown-shell Redcast Heritage in Madrid have a large range of UES and ship internationally, I’ve had quite a few pieces from them and no problems at all.

[stitchdown.shell]

@DeeDee85 Thanks! I'll check them out as well.

[Lowlander]

I've ordered directly with UES in Japan, shipping to the EU. That also went fine. And I've ordered UES stuff from Corlection in Australia, which went without a glitch too.

[jordanscollected]

@stichdown-shell I have ordered from UES direct from Japan and they were very responsive and the transaction went smooth. Their website is a bit dated but don't let that sway you. If a retailer closer to you has what you want, do what makes you most comfortable.

[Mizmazzle]

Ditto. I’ve ordered direct from UES Japan. They are super responsive and friendly.

[stitchdown.shell]

@jordanscollected @Mizmazzle Thanks fellas! I shall check them out directly. I appreciate it.
