For all of you that were into the FN-SCK-010L 5oz chambray work shirts from last year, The Flat Head recently release a new colorway (black). I just received mine and it's great.
Withered Fig, Snake Oil Provisions, and Guilty Party are the stockists that I know of who have it right now. There are also western and short sleeve workshirt versions of these chambrays as well.
@Steve I'm a medium + 31". Large would be too big. I'll sign up for restock notification just in case there is a return or cancellation.
Damn...sold out while in cart. These flew.
@Chibs I have a few of their suvin gold shirts. They're nice and fit slim and small. I guess I would characterize them as medium weight and pretty smooth in regards to texture. Soft but I find that the recycled cotton shirts that various brands have been offering are softer (e.g ELS recycled cotton shirts from Wonderlooper). I have a couple of the suvin gold tees from Studio D'artisan as well but don't find those to be especially soft, but they are nice shirts. Just bought a couple of the Wonderlooper suvin tees from Redcast Heritage and am looking forward to seeing how these compare.
I'd say that the UES suvin shirts are worth grabbing but try to get them from Bears Tokyo when they restock them since they are a lot cheaper. I got mine through them for under $60 USD and have seen them go for over $100 from other stockists.
These weren't on my radar and now I'm kinda obsessed. I could see myself living in these.
@Denimhead-0 Looks great! Mine arrive today.
I recently received a pair of the SJ42BP (Heavy Back Satin Trousers - Olive - Slim Straight Cut) and they fit and feel incredible. These recently restocked in Japan (Denimio and Okayama Denim). I love the bakers pants, but wanted to try this fabric in a different cut.
FYI, for those of you that have been waiting for a US based restock of the Tricotine Baker Pants, Withered Fig just got theirs in. Grabbed a pair myself.
Mine arrived today and it fits perfectly. Not that I'm surprised. This shirt looks great on everyone. The photos from this thread convinced me I needed this one. Not sure what took me so long.
Even though I already own the 389 I'm really tempted to grab this one when it releases. The measurements will probably be the determining factor for me. I think pearl snaps would look great on this.
@blue2gnt Based on what you wrote, I'd say you're a large. I feel like the body and sleeve length are the main factors in sizing thermals. Since they have so much stretch, the chest is less of a factor (unless it is too wide).
If you decide that a large would be better for you just email the crew and ask to switch your size.
@Buckeye Looks like there will be 13oz black and indigo cpo shirts. Both look great in the photos I saw.
Hell yeah. Been waiting on this one. This plus the restock of the 1213 is gonna make next week expensive.
@americanathreads Give it a hand wash. It can marble if you machine wash it. It happened to me. But definitely wash it if you are leaving sweat stains.
@Go-For-Chill The duck does fade, but not in the same way as denim. Also it can marble. I washed mine in the machine on low spin and it still marbled on me. I didn't think it would do that.
Seeing the 634 and 888 drop in these has me jonesing for the 666 restock. Can't wait and hope they arrive soon.
Just got mine. I'm so glad I didn't pass on this and this initially wasn't even on my radar. I know this is blasphemous to say but I think I might like this even more than my 293. The fit on this is perfect for me. I sized up to a large as the medium is just too small in the OD (I probably would have gone medium in the indigo version). It is so comfortable right out of the bag and isn't tight or too loose. Also sizing up gave me a little extra body length which I appreciate. I have the Big John R609 Rare jacket which is a similar style and the 123 fits better and is more comfortable to wear.
Just bought a large. Sized up for layering like I did with my 293. I knew resistance was futile.
Someone talk me out of buying this. I love the feel and look of the fabric on my 293 so much I really am tempted to get this.
