IHSH-155 - Ultra Heavy Flannel Check Crazy Check Western

Great combo with the henley!
Thanks, I haven't taken this henley off since it got here! Super impressed with it.
You're a tough sonofabitch shoveling like that in -20 Celsius. (Possibly a little bit crazy, too.)
There may have been a stiff bloody mary, a thick wool cap and a massive pair of mittens involved too…

This shirt is indeed crazy!
Great fit!

The blue is growing on me. This year's black 155 is probably my all-time favourite.Agreed 100%. It has absolutely taken over as the alpha male of my closet…
I loved all the colorways right off the bat, all pop nicely. The fact that Giles had an abundance of Blue and Red and the attention the black got made me jump on that first.
A Power Red may very well be in my future.

Said it before and I'll say it again, blue is the classic sleeper.

Black is the most appealing color to me, but blue and red are very nice too. Red is very bold tho.
Question for the fellas that have had this shirt for a while now - how much shrinkage are getting out it?
-
None what soever, but I always cold wash, and air dry.

I am also a cold-wash/line-dry guy and I avoid the dryer like the plague with my high end cotton gear.
No shrinkage at all for me using the cold wash method, but I'd guess you'd get about a half size reduction if you hot washed one and threw it in the dryer on medium.
I'm sure someone out there can confirm that one for you.

You can go both ways - handwash or cold wash (or wool Setting) will result in only Little if any shrinkage, washing at above 60 degrees will shrink it half a size. I've done both depending on the fit I wanted.

Super pumped to have snagged a blue!

@Appfaff that shirt looks fucking bad ass on you. I love the blue 155, one of my all time favorite colorways next to the black 107.
In the nature of oversharing I'll also tell you that this is the only article of clothing I have ever heard my father comment on in my 38 years of existence. "that's a nice shirt"….blew me away coming from a 72 year old man who could give two shits about style and has probably never paid more than 10 dollars for a pair of jeans.

@manufc10 - that's an awesome story! I agree - i loved the bluw 155 when it came out last year, but my $$$ had other priorities at the time. Now that the weather is a bit cooler over here, I knew which one I needed. The little orange stripe really sets the pattern off.
I will say, it's always the most random items of clothing that elicit remarks from family for me. Ironically, i wrore my MFSC tonkinoise (Snow denim) shirt to my In Laws one day and I figured they would see it as "just another denim shirt" i wear all the time. Funny enough both inlaws and my Sis-IL all commented "Man that's a really nice shirt" - must be something about the depth of fabrics that catch people's eyes when they get up close.
Very excited to pair this Blue 155 with my iHJ-46 - I think it will be a great pairing.

not to derail this thread (although I will for here for a second) and at the risk of sounding like a pompous, pretentious ass
:D, but when someone tells you how nice a piece of IH clothing is does a little voice in your head say "you're goddamn right its nice. It's fecking IH"? Mine does, but my face politely smiles and graciously accepts the comment.
