IHSH-302-IND - Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt - Buffalo Check - Indigo

[yannis]

I dont have the 247 to compare. All i can say is, that the evo on this will be different , being indigo. Different and more fade potential with age. What i can tell you is,that the fabric feels different than the rest of my UHF shirts in a good way. Feels slightly thinner although its the same weight, but more luxurious. I also like the fit on this one. From my experience at list it seems slightly trimmer

@yannis i just don’t know…I know the consensus is to size up if in between sizes but I’m having a hard time committing to a medium over a small. The length and chest are good but the shoulders and arms are long. ‍️

In what way is the feel different?

I guess by weight going from 9oz to 12oz represents a 25% difference in heft?

@GregO if you find that they are redundant and you're a Large I might be interested in picking up your 247. 9oz is also a really nice flannel weight.

Meanwhile I too am struggling with temptation on this one. IH ordering so many larges of UHFs has been a struggle for me

Compared to the other 12oz UHF i have, they seem to be slightly lighter in weight, but also softer. In terms of sizing, they seem to be a tad more snug than the sames size in other UHF.'s.  In all honesty i went crazy this year. I missed out on the purple , wasn't quick enough to pull the trigger and got pissed off. So end up byuing the Green , red check, Yellow and Buffalo blue. Yeap lost my mind. In any rate, although all 4 are 12oz UHF's the blue buffalo feels slightly lighter, softer and just a little tighter than the other 3. All 4 are size 4xl. 2 of them Westerns and the other 2 the work shirts.

@GregO they are not completely redundant. Ones a lightweight flannel made of regular cotton and one feels almost twice as heavy and is made of aspero cotton that's indigo dyed. The color is not close either. This is way more Indigo. If you like UHFS, this one is neat because the fabric is not brushed as much as usual.

@Filthy - Thanks, much appreciated.  Those pics sealed the deal.

Nice @GregO I think you'll be pleased with the shirt.

I really can’t decide on sizing. This is very close to the IHSH-264 in measurements except it is about a 1/2 inch shorter in length. I have a small in the 264 and it fits like a glove. Might be one of the best fitting shirts I own. I don’t like things that are too big and I don’t want to wear this as an over shirt. I know no one can decide for me. I just don’t like the idea of buying something that doesn’t fit correctly in hopes that washing it will make it fit. I like it to fit out of the box.

I have the 276 in a medium and it is slightly big even after a wash.

This is exhausting, haha.

@paymar it’s worth a shot to send an email to the guys at shop@ironheart.co.uk to see if they have anything with similar measurements to your 264.

@RoxRocks86 thank you for the tip!

[paymar]

Just got mine delivered and wearing today. Not as soft as some of the other UHF but still very hefty. The color on this is real beautiful!

Great fit to it!

@Pipeboss713 As a layer, I think you're golden.  Any plans to wear alone and you might want to size down.

@Pipeboss713 - looks good. I think sizing up in UHF makes sense when layering. Good to have a few oversized shirts for layering.

Looks awesome could also layer the UHF over another shirt too

[Fadez]

Solid fit. I’d say it’s a keeper
