FH Googies / Railcar / D. J. Pliner
Kind of an irregular seersucker shirt, perfect for how hot it is today (in the 90s).

We could always use some more girls around here right? Fit pic :
Ill post up some fit pics of the indigo paisley shirt when it gets here:)

Some cool new FH shirts went up over at SE online yesterday. I'd grab the indigo paisley in heartbeat if I had the loot at the moment.
-
I noticed that; was surprised they went unannounced. I was ogling the new tees when i noticed those.
Just copped the western version of that indigo paisley last night. Both versions are smashing. I thought the new acid trip shirt had a great fabric too.
Today I am wearing no IH clothes, yet I always have at least 3 IH items on (wallet, chain, clip). Just thought of that this morning and it made me happy.
Clist, many thanks for this FH Western chambray:
-
Where's the western version at? 2nd? Or does SE have it?

2nd: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/2nd/item/fh-7115w-id/
Dat sawtooth…

Humbug! Looks like 42 is as large as they get and my only FH shirt is 44 which is just right everywhere
-
Aw man, bummer. 42 Western is great for me in FH, though I had to go 44 on the Wabash work shirt and shrink it down….
-
ZOMG I was looking for a 44 for you and they also have a black…

Hmm… Let me know how the sleeves are on you 42 I also went with 44 wabash work shirt (only FH I have) if they are at 25.7" or greater I'm good to go. I normally have to size up for sleeve length
-
They do make SS variants of these, but I dunno… I like SS, but it's not my go-to first choice. I'll measure when it arrives and let you know.

New cell bitch indigo warp/weft chambray discharge dyed Paisley Western shirt just arrived from Japan. They even included a fan!
Reverse of the discharge; cotton yarn chain stitching, cell bitch placket and gusset, and flat head discharge print. Love details like this:
For tatman:
That's 24" on the nose as measured. Guessing that's a bit short.
-
Good looking shirt. Didn't know it comes in a western, only saw the work shirt version on SE.
-
Thank you. Love work shirts but Western shirts are my jam! This is a light chambray and it should be perfect for summer. It's got a really cool selvage line at the gussets and the interior placket, and I heartily recommend either the workshirt or the western shirt to anyone. The mother of pearl snaps are super cool.
Kiya gets credit for calling this pattern to my attention; I went looking for a western variant as soon as I saw it on SE.

On the topic of new FH at Self Edge, the new Glory Park hot rod shirt is NOT discharge printed… I don't think SE was trying to mislead anyone; it really looks like it because of how lightly the design was screened onto the shirt, you can see the twill fibers... but when you drag your fingers across it you encounter resistance and relief on the design as you feel the ink. A discharged design would be undetectable by touch. Still cool, but not as cool as a discharge print would have been.
It also lacks the super-reinforced collar as well as the typical FH accent stitching, though it's still a pretty robust, triple-stitched collar and I kind of like the black on black stitching for a nice change-up. And I think that it may not be loopwheeled. Whatever it is, it's an awesome fabric and definitely a tubular knit, but it's unlike any loopwheeled tee I've seen. It's extremely soft, particularly the inside... EDIT: I think it may be LW, I see some characteristic horizontal texture... Either way, soooo soft and nice weight.
Last thought, the 42 is really borderline for me, quite trim through the torso, consider sizing up.
If you like the design (I love it), worth picking up.
