Work shirts vs. Westerns

I like em big. Heifers need love, too.

As Billy Connolly said, get their hind legs into yer wellies while standing at the edge of a cliff and you'll spice things up with the heifer or sheep in your life….

As a fatty I tend to opt for work shirts (though not always) for more girth room.
So you don't have anything against the yoke/snap aesthetic? It's just a fit thing?
Pure fit for me as well. I prefer westerns, but the 46 workshirt is one of my all time favorites.
-
I'm kind of broad so I like that the westerns play that down a bit, little unsure whether the work shirts are going to work on my chunky frame…
That being said, I'm looking forward to getting my mitts on a work shirt so I can experience the difference myself. Thanks for the feed back (and the amusing banter).

Was looking for some info from the pros on here , sorry bring up old thread with the question already answered. but since a lot shirts sizing differnt maybe I’m in Luck? Little torn self edge having a great sale on some UHFs, plus extra Black Friday so really good deal. I was checking out a medium IHSH-378-BRN, they are sold out of all their larges. Measurements just tad smaller than my IHSH-62 large, but think I could swing it and fit fine? Big con is no returns/refunds, and don’t think they dont carry sale items in store. The only work shirt I own is the brown CPO in a large but honestly could have gotten a medium and still fit really well, just no layering underneath. Guess just asking if worth the risk/ deal or play it safe and not get stuck with too small flannel? This would be my first UHF, I’m 6”1, and like 160lbs.

@meatmarketdenim1 My only concern would be that if you don’t have a medium shirt yet in either fit, there is an element of risk.
If you can swing by SE and try any UHF medium before purchase, I would recommend doing that on top of the usual measurement advice, which you’ve probably already done anyway.
Personally all the IH shirts and jackets I own are the same tag size. If the fit varies slightly, it just alters the way I layer it. For example, my 62 runs large, and I can put it over most other shirts. I can’t say that for most of the others.
Not sure if that helps. 🫠

@Mister_Brue
Thanks man that helps a lot. I pretty much know it would prob be a tad too small, just got excited on the bargain price, and the measurements they got up really close. But would be a bummer get stuck with a small fitting UHF. I’ve def tried on some large/xl at self edge before just off the rack and both fit, more so the large. So a medium would be pushing it. -
@meatmarketdenim1 Maybe it’s a bridge too far. There will be other killer UHF’s anyway.

@meatmarketdenim1 They do carry the warehouse items in store. I was just checking out the 378-BRN today at the Austin location.
