IHSH-369-GRY - 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel Herringbone Check Western Shirt - Grey

[SaddleSC]

@AdamJ I know this is one of the last UHFs of the season...does that mean the Work Shirt version is still on the table or will this shirt only be available as a Western?

It seems like most retailers don’t penalize it and some encourage it with free return shipping.

It will change, it is unsustainable.

@SaddleSC It's still coming. You can follow the work shirt version's progress here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/13850/ihsh-375-gry-12oz-slubby-heavy-flannel-herringbone-check-work-shirt-grey

I've found that quite a lot of (if not most) retailers in the smaller/boutique realm have gotten rid of free returns and are just doing store credit. Makes perfect sense.

@SaddleSC live tomorrow at 1600GMT!

[SaddleSC]

@AdamJ The Work Shirt will be available tomorrow also???

[Brandrea]

@popvulture one of the reasons I prefer to buy here.

I do try to limit returning items, but it’s nice to know if something doesn’t work out, you can.

I’m happy to pay the return shipping, and I DO realize there is more to the cost of a return than just the shipping, which is why I don’t abuse the privilege.

[AdamJ]

@SaddleSC yep correct, all launches scheduled are visible in the calendar too!

[chuffed4cuffs]

@AdamJ Are only the heavy duty snaps available for pimping on this slubby beast?

[DrPat]

@popvulture In the EU and UK, customers have the right to return for 14 days for online purchases. I’m not sure how restocking fees come into play.

I really don’t like store credit. I’d much rather pay a bit to return something than have a large amount of store credit that will disappear if the store goes out of business before I use it.

[popvulture]

I definitely don’t like store credit — I’d much rather just eat the shipping and return an item that doesn’t work if given the option. I especially get why small stores over here have started changing their policies, though. IIRC when Standard and Strange changed, they said it was because over half of their sales ended up being returned, and their small staff was swamped with having to deal with all of them. Anyway, I’m glad some companies still offer actual refunds. I know that doing so can really be a deciding factor sometimes, but I also try to keep in mind that it’s tough as hell to run a small business and they’ve gotta do what they’ve gotta do to hang on.

[AdamJ]

@chuffed4cuffs yes, and the relevant size Good Art snap

[AdamJ]

Shrink test results, both washed at the same time, SHF v UHF. Left to drip dry and then ironed.

[Brandrea]

@AdamJ Wow! Thank you for posting this !

I can’t be the only one sitting sinking beers untill 2.30am waiting surely
Or can I ‍️

@Brian Dangerous when there are so many things dropping today - after a few drinks is when I get into "fuck it" territory and overspend!

[chuffed4cuffs]

@AdamJ makes sense. I’ve only been upgrading to the lightweights until now but I had to plan a test purchase and the lightweights weren’t presented as an option at checkout. Thanks for confirming!

[Brian]

@EdH I’ve topped the spending account up with just enough in case I decide the red western is needed also

[Brandrea]

Unfortunately after washing, I’m afraid this one will end up too short for me

[AdamJ]

@Brandrea updated results above. In my hast to post this morning, I measured it still a bit too wet. Now it's a lot drier and I've run an iron over it, it's evened out across the board. Sorry for the confusion!
