IHSH-219 - 10oz Check Flannel Western Shirt - Indigo
-
Hi everybody,
i am new from Bavaria. Thank you for all the pics and the informations about denim.
I love this shirt. The devil also.
That's a great, fresh-looking outfit; the fit of that shirt is absolutely spot-on, as a someone who often has problems with sleeve-length it's very enjoyable for me to see examples of sizing done right to the tee.

This makes me happy I bought this shirt.
Self Edge has 4 of every size if your size is sold out here. -
Now that I have both this and the work shirt. I think I prefer the western. I am going to mothball the work shirt and save it for in a few years after this one is beat. A shirt so nice I am glad to own 2. I was also thankful I was able to shrink the cuffs on this a little. I soaked them in boiling water and the threw the shirt in the dryer on high heat damp cuffs only. The cuffs are super-wide on a 4xl.
Bad quality pics for sure.

Has anyone washed this and had any issues? This has happened to mine…1 x 20 degree wash 30 min cycle, 800 spin...it seem the weave is so loose that the material sort of opens up. My machine is perfectly fine too, no other issues. @Alex and @Giles any other reported issues? I don't want to snip the loose threads with scissors for fear of making it worse, but I also can't pull the threads through the back…

Not something that I have seen before. You can pull the threads to the back side easily. take a needle and cotton, from the back of the fabric take the needle through the same hole as the rogue yarn, leaving a tag end on the reverse, put the need back through the same hole, leaving a loop of cotton, pull both ends of the cotton through until you have a little loop. Put the rogue yarn into the loop and continue pulling. Voila. it's done.
My description is pretty crap, so I made a pulled yarn and fixed it. Here it is on vid…

@Giles I gave it a go…blimey I need to get my eyes tested! Took a few goes but here are the results
Surface
Reverse…I tied off the loose thread and cut the excess off
The other snag results aren't quite as good as the thread is a loop
Surface
Reverse…I couldn't tie off or cut this one
This material is such a loose weave, I think it will always be prone to snagging.i didn't think threads would loosen in a light wash though. I'm sure there are always anomalies, you just there will be less on a £250 shirt I thought a quick wash might have closed the weave, but no luck.

Thanks Giles. I actually found it really therapeutic. I've actually just noticed there is one xxl workshirt back in stock…fighting...the...urge...

Just ordered this one from the Outlet. My wife thinks I secretly want to be a cowboy because of all my western shirts but at this price I cant resist. There really is no secret. I WANT TO BE A COWBOY!
