IHSH-309-PUR - Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt - Classic Check - Purple

@Giles:

The Japanese are not releasing a western…..

That explains the lack of pics and the mock up. I was wondering…

[Giles]

Hitherto, the Japanese have always only done a work or a western per fabric in Ultra Heavy Flannel.  We have always (well usually) asked them to make both for the western market.  I think that will change in SS22, as most samples have been made in both cuts….

I was also stuck in the thinking that western UHF’s were the norm on both sides of the pacific and work shirts the exception.

The continued excellence of pattern design and colourways really is impressive. This years is mouthwatering…. and I haven’t picked up a UHF for a few years.

Ah, makes sense. I've been keeping an eye on their IG and website to see if one popped up.

Well that makes the choice much easier LOL

Western shirt still coming out for western market I believe. Just can't check out early pictures of it as it's not releasing in the Japanese market.

[Giles]

Everything that is being released for the western market is here…..

Correct.

[Oz430]

OOoOo I see I misunderstood dang it, now I still don’t know which to get 

I like the easy access pockets of the work but the yoke/ fit on the western shirts

[Dmart]

Can’t decide for you, but for me, if in doubt, I go for the western, mainly because of the fit.

[Oz430]

This might be the move for me as well

I’m strictly a Western shirt guy, but ,occasionally,there are patterns that look better on a Work shirt and,for me,this might be one of them.

If they had you’d know about it. Details will come here when they are at IHUK.

I can't wait to see a real picture of this shirt instead of just a mockup.

Shouldn't be too long to wait @Filthy
