              Finally I could take some fit pics and I started to doubt whether I've sized wrong. I was opting for a trim fit but dunno if it's too small on me now. What do the UHF gods think? Is it a keeper?

                What’s your height/weight? Sleeves look kinda short but the fit in the body looks fine. How do you think it fits?

                  It looks great as-is, but you’ll have to be really careful washing. Since I don’t have a careful bone in my body for flannels, I would size up to be able to machine wash and dry. I think if you hand wash and line dry, the sizing is great.

                    Personal choice thing I’d say @Dion. It is trim but I f you are happy and comfortable then with careful washing then you’ll be fine.

                      @Dion - if its possible to size up the i'd do it. This course of action will negate washing worries . . .

                          @Dion I'd size up. It looks trim and you will have to be super careful with washing it like this. Other than that it looks great on you.

                                I think after like 2 washes, its going to be way too small on you.  I always account for that.

                                  Many thanks for the feedback, everyone! I've come to the conclusion that it is too small/short on me, indeed. Such a shame but it is what it is.

                                    I am loving this flannel. The pattern. The feel. The weight. The heavy-duty snaps. I can't wait for it to cool off in Tennessee.

                                    I'm a bit concerned about losing length after my first wash. A question to the UHF veterans around here: What sort of results have you gotten doing a machine wash followed by line drying? I am hoping to be able to do a cold machine wash on the gentle/hand cycle (no spin) and line-drying. Would that be sufficient to avoid unwanted shrinkage, or should I just hand wash in the sink?

                                      I have yet to use a cold machine wash on my UHF’s but in the future I might. I did wash two of my UHF’s on a warm machine wash/hang dry twice and got about a half inch of shrink. If your UHF is smaller than you’d like then a cold hand wash/hang dry might be better

                                        Do this and any shrinkage will be somewhere between zero and negligible.

                                          This is basically what I do, and I have experienced zero (or negligible) shrinkage.  I tend to treat them the same as I do denim.  I turn them inside out, wash on gentle setting with minimal spin cycle, and hang dry right side out, under a ceiling fan, from a large coat hanger.  This seems to facilitate effective moisture evaporation through the UHF.  I can’t back this methodology with any type of research or data analysis, but it works so I keep doing it [emoji1787]

                                            A little late to the party, but this is the fit before any washing. Taken only today which means I haven't had the chance to wear this out yet!

                                            By the way, I'm 170cm/70kg with a chest that's approximately 40" (wearing a size L). For me, it's just the fit that I wanted 🙂
