These came out great....great idea to to overdye these. Definitley size up one from your normal UHF size I would say.

Overdye on overdye (21oz 777 OD)....tried to capture the color the best I could.

More versions/variations of the IHJ-124-BRN work jacket in different fabrics and colors I love the style and fit of this jacket and I feel like it could work so well in a variety of fabrics and colors. Serge, denim, whipcord, duck, moleskin.....etc.

I forgot to comment on the fabric. To me there is a noticeable difference when compared to the 12oz Aspero and that's a good thing because I actually think I prefer this 11oz fabric over the 12oz Aspero.

In reality I think if you were trying a bunch of IH flannels on at a store and this was mixed in the middle of the pack with a bunch of 12oz Asperos around it then you probably wouldn't notice a difference and would think they were all one and the same. However, if you hold this 11oz in one hand and the 12oz Aspero in another and examine them then you can feel the difference.

This 11oz has more structure to it I feel like which is a good thing. I feel that it drapes a little better and isnt as soft and flowy as the 12oz. Not that the 12oz doesnrlt have structure to it as well because I think it does, but in comparison the 11oz has more and is a little stiffer in a good way.

The collar is where you can notice it the most. The collar on this 11oz looks cleaner and I think will hold its shape a little better....looks sharper, crisper. The 12oz collars can get a little curly or sloppy I think if you let them get out of hand.

This is all just based on initial impressions after having the shirt in my possession for a few hours. Dont get me wrong, I still love the 12oz Aspero, its an amazing fabric and I will continue to wear the shit out of all of mine, but Im definitely looking forward to more flannels with this 11oz fabric in the future.

Great job IH for finding a good replacement for the 12oz Aspero.

@CosmoSix5 You’re the first person I know to do the top button up on a UHF.

Looks great though.

I'm a buttoned up kind of guy

Same here. I always button the top button on all IH button ups,

Received mine today from a stockist. This shirt is the best flannel Iron Heart has made since the black IHSH-107. Awesome colorway and with the white snaps....too good.

A lot of online pics dont do it justice I think. Unfortunately I dont fit into an XL western anymore so I'll have to send it back for an XXL. Luckily theres several stockists that have XXL's in stock.

Best flannel by IH...tied with the black 107 in my opinion.

@goosehd thanks for the input man.

Received my red one yesterday, very nice bracelet.  Beads are quite a bit bigger than the IHG-60 (Turquoise/Silver).  I will eventually order a blue one as well.

If you like the IHG-60 don't hesitate to cop one of these bad boys.

@Alex and crew, if its not too much trouble could we get a pic of this next to the IHSH-344-KHA for color reference? Love this shirt but I own the 344 khaki so not sure if I can justify both.

Looks great.

@T4920 Fit is so subjective so generally speaking there's no right or wrong but in my opinion it looks like the 555 cut just isn't the cut for you. That or you might have sized wrong and may need to size down as long as the measurements still work for you if course.

I think you need a decent amount of junk in the trunk to make the 555 cut work. I never rocked the 555 cut over the years but recently I put on some weight with a significant amount being in my glutes and thighs and now the 555 cut is my preferred cut as long as the thigh measurement is on the larger side of its respective tag size.

Just my two cents for what its worth.

Looks very nice.

@Ross is the red one launching soon as well?

Received this jacket yesterday, love it. So good. Dont sleep on it if youre on the fence. I also like that the collar seems smaller than every other Iron Heart shirt or jacket.

Could use a little hem (or not cause stacks are cool too) but I'm very happy with these.  Love the fit.

@Alex would you say the OD process has eliminated all shrink moving forward…similar to how it works with denim?

I know I'm not Alex but yes, OD process has removed all shrinkage.

So glad I didn't sleep on this one.  Sized up to XXL as per my other IH type III's.

Thank you Alex.

That's the one I thought it was but I wasn't sure. Interesting to me that the flannel I like the least in it's original form is the one I like the most in it's OD form.

@Giles:

There's a lot that you don't know is coming

That's exciting and scary at the same time.

@deanclean:

@manufc10 a little crazy? I never thought in a million years id ever be writing or contributing on a forum about clothes! you are absolutely right about the brand and it is no easy matter to be shelling out 300+ on a pair of jeans or a shirt.  To be honest I really dont know what most of those terms mean.  I just buy what I like.  And I know with these high end brands the money is well worth it because whatever you buy will last a lifetime.  I shouldnt have boiled it down to such a simple statement.  We all have our own reasons for buying what we buy.

I like this post ^^

I wish we had a like function on this forum

@Alex are there any plans for a restock soon?

Damn dude, for some reason your pic makes me want this shirt @daltmeyer.  I never thought I would wear a sawtooth shirt but it looks great on you
