The Flat Head

[Giles]

Expect to see easier access to Flat Head in Europe.  That said, you'll likely to see less hard connection between me and TFH as I need to "distance" myself a little, to allow them to grow without causing me a conflict of interest…..

thx for sharing G.
sounds actually good to me and I also think that TFH appreciates that…since they are able to grow outside of japan which means:
more items in production = more items in stores = more money from selling...

I know it isn't as easy as stated but I think this is what it looks like after some time...hopefully!

This sounds good.  But they really need to rethink about the sizing issues for the bigger bone brothers!

The Flat Head party sounds awesome! Too bad it's not possible for me to attend 

[Danny RnH]

Looking forward to this one.
Coinciding with Rivet & Hide's July launch.

So I just picked up a pair of 3009's in size 32 from Tate+Yoko. after multiple measurements using the self edge method the waist on these is 30" - raw and fresh out of the mail.  Needless to say they can never touch water or i will never fit into them.  What gives flat head?

[Flash]

I've heard of a few people having this problem with the 3009's
Must be this current run because the pair I bought a few years ago measured 1inch over tag

[zhivago]

I picked up a pair a few months back tagged 36 and they come in just under 35. Might have stretched a bit cause I've worn MAYBE 5 times, I do like them but they are a wee bit tight for sure. Into the closet they go till I drop about twenty or so I guess.

[Guest]

My 3009 tag 34 was 34, shrunk to 32, and they haven't stretched in the waist much at all

[Stormowl]

Anyone ever have luck soaking unsanforized denim from the pockets down to minimize waist shrinkage?  Trying to think about a way around this other than returning them

[Guest]

Just always wash in cold water and hang to dry

[Guest]

Return them. Trust me, it's not worth the inevitable disappointment.

[Flash]

Listen to shoreman mate , you can always exchange them ?

[GimpKid]

Anyone have an issue with the wide shoulders on FH shirts? I've wanted to pick one up but the shoulder measurements always scare me off.

The fabrics are just cool as shit.

[jacoavlu]

not really. the cut on TFH vs IH is different, its more the slim gut on TFH stuff that can get you, some of the westerns reallly taper

[GimpKid]

Ah, that might be a concern as well. Thanks jaco.
