[oliverward]

am full of want for this. unemployment & iron heart are not a good combination however.

maybe i should start a kickstarted page for myself, they seem to be all the rage these days…

What's the weight on this one- light, medium, heavy, ultra heavy?

Sorry if I missed that detail if it was in an earlier post.

[Giles]

Good point, I have not mentioned it.  It feels light, but because of the waffle construction, I think it will be fairly warm….

[Chris]

Interesting.  Is it a bit stretchy, like a knit, or less so, more like most woven fabric?

The color on this thing is just fantastic.

[Giles]

It's a little stretchy.  The waffle is like 3D weave, so when you pull it, it distorts and thus stretches.  Does that make sense?

[Chris]

Yes.  That's kinda what I was guessing.  I thought the waffle weave might give it some more flex than a normal weave.

they did a wonderful job on this, know how on some worksirts the collar is kind of huge (ihsh78) well it's just right on this baby. should of put these buttons:

i swear that's my only issue at the moment.  fabric is almost like a heavy gauze bandage.  shit is really wild.  can't wait to see how it works for spring/summer/fall/winter . . .

fit flick when time presents itself

Those buttons would be dope; my first thought though was aluminum.

[madmonday]

don't like aluminum buttons on any of my shirts, but i am too busy at the moment to source & change them out. when time presents itself i'm gonna be all over it . . .

Giles, may be a stupid question, but: Can you please specify "feels light"? Is that stuff light as a thermal (I suppose it's made out of the same material thermals are made of) or rather light as a spring weight flannel?

[Giles]

Part of the reason it feels light is because of the waffle construction, this makes the fabric feel quite thick, so your brain thinks it'll be heavy.  I have weighed a known weight shirt and this and I calculate that the fabric is about 6.5oz….
