woah..what are you doing with the scissors ???

(BTW - cool combo, the od jacket and the shirt…)

[Giles]

making it into a vest

[tvshooter]

sir, please put the scissors down and step away from the jacket. . .

seriously- an OD vest would be insane.  but don't do it- i'm broke till next year!

@tvshooter:

Yep. Seconded.

Edited to un-derail:  Folks lookin' good ITT. Carry on.

I received both colors today and everyone is right, these ROCK! The red is definitely "vintage"-ish… i get it now after holding it in person. HEAVY flannel, these are more like jackets! haha Very slim fitting in my typical size but G is right, i wouldnt suggest sizing up at all.

[cparsons]

So I wear a 42 in TFH saw tooth denim shirt and i prefer a little bit of a slim look. Should i go with a M or L in the black?

[Beatle]

It would make sense to compare the measurements.. I would say it´s safe to go for the same size..42 or XL

[cparsons]

I did compare the measurements and the L looks like it would be probably the choice for me thanks tho.

[DrPat]

I would also suggest a L.  But note that FH and IH have very different cuts.  FH is larger in the shoulders and narrower in the stomach than IH.

[cparsons]

Thanks thats exactly why I was asking because the Iron heart shirts have small shoulders and bigger chests, but flathead has a smaller chest and bigger shoulders.  Though, I think if I go with the L I should be good so I am ordering my first Iron Heart shift now! Thanks DrPat.

I wear an L in IH and a 42 in FH.

I do wish that IH shirts were a little more tapered like FH though because i have a smaller waist

Flat Head dont work, if like me, you like the occasional beer…...............

Yeah, FH sizing is weird.  I take a XL in IH but a 44 FH shirt don't quite fit me.  FYI - FH is making a few shirts in size 46 this winter.  The shoulders are 22 inches and the chest at 46 inches, but the body is quite slimmed.  IMHO 46 inches chest should be at most 20 inches at the shoulder.

[Goldwater]

I don't really get the sizing on Flat Head shirts. The shoulder measurements all ways seems too wide for the chest size. That is not problem with IH.

And I have just noticed that Giles has sold out all the red IHSH-32's in my size. What a bummer.

[DrPat]

I also find the FH shoulders way too wide.  It seems like the shirts are made for body builders.

IH has a much more forgiving cut and fits people with narrow shoulder (like myself) as well as those with beer bellies.

[Seul]

I've had issues with an FH shirt as well… If I size down on IH shirts, they fit perfectly... If I'd size down on an FH shirt to try and make up for the wide shoulders, it wouldn't be long enough... So yeah... IH it is 

[nameness]

Anyone give this a wash yet?  Shrinkage expected?  I've been beating the crap out of my black one so it's coming due.

[Omega Man]

Looking at SE website, it says "0.5 inches everywhere", so shrinkage is minimal.  When in doubt, cold/hand wash.
