IHSH-260-PPL - Ultra Heavy Flannel Tartan Check Western Shirt - Purple

[neph93]

Horses for courses and everyone will have their opinion and that is how it should be. For me it has gone from being a standard IH buffalo check with fun detail added, to being a statement shirt in its own right. In fact I think it needs its own nomenclature. Does the pattern have an official name?

With the thin red stripes, the purple was more prominent but with the thicker red stripe, it looks more balanced! Either way nice color way!

That is true. I think it has a more rugged feel about it now as well, which I like.

H merely calls it Tartan Check….

@jothishan Thats a good point. The thinner stripes gave it a more dressier look while the thicker stripes gives it a more rugged look as @neph93 says.

As @Giles says…H has spoken and it shall be .

I guess Purple Rain is too obvious.

Tartan check works for me. I think gives more meaning now that the the thicker stripes have moved it away from a lightly pimped buffalo check.

Too late, Haraki didn't….

Haha good point . I guess I should deal with it or don't buy it when it drops lol

@neph93:

No size M in the sample and samples are rarely  for sale.

All tops samples for seasonal collections are made in L (H and my size typically), that way we can adjust from a known point if we need to modify for production.

We will start to sell some samples as and when it makes sense. This shirt is a candidate.  I will post measurements soon and start a sample sale thread….

[BD81]

To be honest…the more that I look at it, it's starting to grow on me.

I would be interested in a sample if the measurements work. How many samples of a shirt are usually made? @Giles

[Giles]

One for Japan and one for us….

Cheers @neph93 

I wasn’t sold on those chunky red lines at first, but I actually do prefer the revision.

[neph93]

And that pic shows why it is such a good c/w. It makes it an entirely different shirt for sure.

[BD81]

The more I look at this, the more I am starting to favor the thicker stripe.

As someone who owns a few IH purple variations, I agree. The red accent makes this a separate beast entirely. You can’t have enough UHF, and the red stripe is the perfect excuse to buy another.

I was originally turned off by the change in the red stripe, but honestly, has been growing on me.  When’s the drop?
