@Filthy looks like a damn fine shirt to get loaded in

@Filthy:

Did you notice how the face of the shirt is not as brushed as older UHFs and is smoother? I absolutely love this.

It does have a slightly different feel to it, you’re right. Be interesting to see how it softens with washes.

@SKT the "extra" larges are in there just taunting me!
I'm trying to pick up an N1 this season…must resist buying all the UHFs...

Is this detail in cuff link area only on the Work Shirt or did it not make the final cut at all?  I was really looking forward to it

@Alex:

That bias tape is not present on the western. It's just like a normal IH western UHF.

[Giles]

Correct

All UHF work shirts have that taping. UHF westerns don’t. It has to do with garment engineering I think.

The button holes on work shirts either weaken the fabric to a degree that requires reinforcement, or the snaps on the western tolerate a folded hem, providing strength for the snaps. I’m not sure which.

The heavy denim CPO’s have taping too.. probably due to the weight of the fabric and/or size of the snaps.

Arrived today! Incredibly stoked on the fit (L) and fabric.

Paired with heavily worn-in 18 oz 555.

@cander49  Shirt looks great paired with those 18oz beauties. Nice! My 18oz 666’s are about 7 years from that level of wear but yours are inspiring!

[Joberwocky]

The desire for this shirt is steadily growing…looking great @cander49 and @3lli0t
