My Trico arrived yesterday. Fit is on point after giving a quick hot soak.

@derek111 so much indigo. I may be waffling on my previous comment about indigo/ navy overload…
May have to let one of these go…and it ain’t gonna be the 397…

[Mizmazzle]

@derek111 nailed that fit!!

[derek111]

@Mizmazzle it's like staring into the deep dark ocean. Just make sure you don't lean against the white truck

[Mizmazzle]

@derek111 I do love the heft of the Tricotine. Even though it’s not quite as heavy as I was expecting. Incredible shirt. But it feels about the same weight wise as the 397.

[derek111]

@Mizmazzle the hot soak was definitely needed for the size 3.

[Mizmazzle]

@derek111 where did you notice the biggest change? Honestly I don’t know if I’d want mine to change too much. The sleeves should come in with creases and loose some of the boxiness. I wouldn’t want the chest to move at all.

[derek111]

@Mizmazzle the length was the kicker for me. I never took any measurements, but it was the only one that felt too generous for me and the soak dialed it in.

[pechelman]

how's the fabric feel compared to your 64 @Mizmazzle ?

Those hems look so thick and beeefy on these shirts. Pretty cool

[Mizmazzle]

@pechelman glad you asked, Phil. I was actually about to post about this for you a couple hours ago and got side tracked.

The 64 is like terry cloth sweatshirt and soft. Also much warmer. This Tricotine is not quite as thick but a bit denser. It doesn’t have the loft of the 64 so not as warm. The 64 is softer, but the hand of the fabric may end up being similar once the Tricotine reaches full break in…as of now, the Tricotine is more rigid with the 64 being a touch softer and more like a dense sweatshirt.

I’d say the nod in rigidness will give the Tricotine great fade potential while the terry cloth loftiness of the 64 will make it warmer and overall more cozy.

Based on hand feel, the Tricotine may be a hair heavier.

Thanks, Mark!
Appreciate all the thought you put into that, super helpful.

Scored this one a while back and still my favorite UES flannel.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That's definitely a nice colourway!

[Lowlander]

@RubyRae That is a stunning flannel, I can't believe I missed that one. Do you remember what season this was?

[RubyRae]

@Lowlander I think it was 2 seasons ago. UES was still slightly under the radar, and I got lucky looking at some sites. Interesting thing is it feels heavier than my other 14.5 oz UES flannels.

[Lowlander]

@RubyRae thanks! They make some great pieces for sure.

One month daily heavy wear on my tricotine shirt. This thing is awesome, I've gotten a bunch of compliments on it and it gets better everyday.

[stitchdown.shell]

@freepickin those arm creases. Wow.
