@SKT looks good Sean! How do you like the color in person? I have dabbled in UES also I have a heavy flannel and a thermal. Love them both so far. I definitely want to get a tricotine, keep us updated if you get anything else.

Received my UES Tricotine this morning, which I bought directly from Japan via Buyee.
Gambled on a size 3, and I'm quite happy with the fit. The shoulders are the narrowest I can still comfortably wear, but any smaller would be too small. The size jumps seem quite big, so I think a 4 would definitely have been too big. I didn't end up saving a lot between buyer fees and duties, so not sure it was worth the trade-off. I could just as well have waited for a EU based retailer to stock it and would have had the security to be able to return it if the size was off.
"Unfortunately" I am working on a IHSH-33-T for the redline Rallye so it'll be a while before this will get it's due

@tenuin stellar fit and will be a great bridge pair after RR!!
-
@tenuin Shirt looks great! What is it that makes UES shirts "not close properly" at the bottom when all buttons are done? My heavy flannel from them does the same but not my IH shirts.
-
Thanks @FlavourFade and @m4xime. I'm having a hard time not wearing it. Its super nice.. I definitely get the hype
About the flare at the bottom.. no clue what causes it, but my Extra Heavy Flannel does the same.
This one is a size 4 by the way, from a while back. They updated the size chart and I got totally hosed on a newer Extra Heavy Flannel in size 4 that is comically large on me
-
@tenuin beautiful shirt, congrats! what is your height and weight in reference to your size 3 fit? Looks great!

Picked up the Tricotine n-1 to go with my IH navy n-1 , two different weight jackets. Between the tricotine shirt and the jacket, i have got some wearing to do!

Really? Hope so!!!

I’m honestly conflicted about the Tricotine. As far as I can tell it’s more of an overshirt than a shirt. I’ve wanted one for over a year now but the IH indigo 21oz Untucked should be a thing this year (I’m assuming). I feel that they are both in similar heavy indigo overshirt territory and between the two, I think I’d probably opt for the Untucked as it’s got those awesome cpo snaps and pockets. Owning both might be overlapping too much. What do you guys think?

i have the 189-BRN (the Unducked) and now the tricotine. I think the Untucked serves a totally different purpose, definitely more of an overshirt / cpo with the pockets, as well as the denim fabric. the tricotine is more of a flannel on steroids. Not as soft as flannel but how i would wear it.
I think they can both co-exist in the same wardrobe. At least that is what I am counting on, because the Untucked Indigo is a must buy for me.

@Chibs I like how tenuin phrased it, the Tricotine is kind of like a flannel on steroids whereas the CPO is more tough workwear. Much more obvious that it is a denim shirt whereas the Tricotine isn't denim so it kind of blends into other outfits a bit more seamlessly if that makes sense. My partner would be more agreeable with me wearing the Tricotine to a nicer dinner spot on a date night for example. Though I couldn't say for certain cause I don't have a 21oz Untucked yet! But I plan on grabbing it whenever it drops
I am also biased because I love my Tricotine and have faded the shit out of it so I'm pretty proud of it

Got mine from barnstormer also. Arrived right on time for red line rally deadline!
I wear xl in IH and went with size 4. Could have prob fit a size 3 but I couldn’t risk it since no returns. Horrible picture but I can measure it for you guys when I have some time later.
I seen iron shop provision say they are going to start taking pre orders for the Tricotine and they don’t expect it to sit long!

@Chibs I think the 21oz untucked is not to be expected before end of this year, maybe even 2027. The tricotine feels more like the kersey shirt, when I had mine it never felt like it's more overshirt than shirt. Comparing the two is a bit tricky because they will wear totally different. I think the untucked will be something that you will be able to get once and then have to wait a very long time, while the tricotine seems to be produced in limited quantity but at least you can buy it every 12-16 months or so.
. Good problem to have!
