IHSH-181-GRY - Grey/Black Ultra Heavy Flannel Glen Check Western Shirt
-
Glen check or glen plaid is derived from Glenurquhart in Scotland, where the New Zealand-born Countess of Seafield, Nina Caroline Ogilvie-Grant, had the design developed to use for her gamekeeper’s outfits in the early 19th Century. The pattern came to true popularity when Edward VIII, as Prince of Wales, visited the Seafield estate to hunt and took a fancy to the design, having some cloth created for himself in brown and cream - hence it’s other name, the Prince of Wales check.
While Prince of Wales checks have generally become smaller and finer over time, the term glen check today tends to refer to designs of a larger scale, in keeping with the original Scottish pattern.

A brown and cream Glen Check would be nice.

One of my favourite and most worn pieces. Despite constant abuse this shirt still looks as good as the day I bought it.

Gotta love UHF’s. They’re bloody expensive but will last forever and are unbelievably warm. I absolutely can’t live without mine during the winter months.

Thanks Giles, that's very kind of you. It wasn't really a serious question. Especially as that model always looks great in IH and everything else SE puts him in.
