IHSH-299-PUR - Ultra Heavy Flannel Work Shirt - Classic Check - Purple

[jerkules]

This shirt looks great on everyone!
@budpatch absolutely right, the purple and blue are nice and bright but somehow the muted whites and browns tone it down. It immediately feels like a brand new “old favourite”.

Have to agree with this, I was worried it would be punchy as it's purple, but it's quite muted and soft if that makes sense.

Question from the uninitiated, I know this isn't dyed, though how do the colours hold up over time. Does it fade in any way.

There was a heavily faded UHF from Kiya's Self Edge IG story I just tried to find. But it is gone. Like eventually everything will fade. But the shirts are quite colorfast. Just like the jeans, IH is stubborn to fade.

Top one was washed and worn countless times. Bottom was washed twice and only worn like 25 or less times.

All UHF's fade… or at least always have done. No reason to expect this won't. It's a beautiful thing as it happens  in conjunction with the fabric softening. Super cosy.

Perfect! I want it too.. I love flannels when they looked washed out and used!

I have some old Flat Head ones that are like 8-10 years old that are looking nicely 'used' so can't wait for this to get worn and faded

Cannot wait

I actually thought it was the other way around - they both look really good

Anyone else having sizing issues? Mine arrived today and it’s not fitting like all my other IH XL work shirts. I measured and it’s def coming up short compared to the measurements that were listed.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

It doesn't appear to being laying completely flat where you are measuring. It would be almost an inch wider of yourolled the back part behind the seam out. Look at the area to the left and to the right of the pockets.

[Roadfox]

It’s flat, if anything I stretched it out at the pits for measuring. It’s also much more snug around the pits and shoulder area than any previous work shirt.

@Filthy is referring to the circled areas. If you folded out where the side seam is tucked in towards the pit you’d get a different measurement.

I haven’t heard anyone else mention sizing issues at all, but take it up with the retailer you bought it from.

[Roadfox]

Is this better?

[neph93]

Looks about right. But you’ll find a definitive guide on how to measure the way they use to produce the website tables on the product page for this shirt on the Iron Heart website.

If it comes up smaller than the tables when you measure like that, then you may have a rogue shirt that has sewn up that way.

Yep, fits and measures like an L rather than an XL. Either cut/sewn wrong or mistagged.

It is very rare, but not unheard of. I would strongly encourage you to get in touch with the retailer you bought it from, whether that is the brand website or another outlet.

It is Friday after all! Mine should be arriving today too.

It is truly a thing of beauty. Mine arrived today. First wear day tomorrow with some FIT PICS to come.

@Roadfox what is the sitrep with yours. I’m afraid to say mine was an XL and meets the published dims.
