2016 Ultra Heavy Flannel Planned Release Schedule….
-
I agree that the UHFs are a bit too small. I'm just over six feet and weigh 170. I have three large UHF's, each of which is short in the arms and a tad short overall. The XL is too big for me.
My ideal IH Larges are the 07 and the 92 (hickory stripe and hairline duck.) Both fit perfectly. The large UHF's fit closer to a medium in the so-called large size.
-
I would rather have a longer than shorter length. Normally the body is fine, never had a problem with IH length, but the sleeves is a little more of a problem depending on the shirt.
Why I say more than not enough? While say the longest armed guy/gal(say possible in the world) in their size that fits perfectly, the next person with 4" less arms(in the same size) is having a lot of stacking. They can get it shortened by a professional, but the long armed person can't get it added.
That is how I see it.
-
I'm guessing most clothes manufacturers have to make their garments to an average body type, of course not everyone has an 'average' shape body and surprise surprise, people with long arms want a shirt with long arms and people with short arms want…you get the idea.
Do I want to buy a £200 shirt and take a punt on having it altered at extra cost? No not really. As you were. -
Just piping in to say that the blue/cream buffalo check is pretty much the pattern of my dreams.
Beautiful stuff, Giles.

And I'm just piping in to say that I am very happy with how the fit guides look for the 137 that just dropped. We've got body length, and we've got sleeve length. Me likey

It was not until I saw the blue ombre in the flesh that it made sense in terms of tone and depth, will not be sleeping this year.
