The Flat Head

[Chris]

Owning IH gear isn't a requirement.   We welcome everyone around here.

^Agreed BUT if you hang out here a lot I'm guessing you might get tempted into an acquisition or two

Awesome knit wear M_P and cold summer

I love my dobby stripe western shirt (CW-79W) paired with a RJB waistcoat

[Danny RnH]

I'm envious, Davito. I got this RJB chambray waistcoat in a 42 for myself but it's just a bit too small. What size are you wearing?

[davito]

Hi Danny shirt and waistcoat both size 38, yes its a great vest with so many nice details

I love that shirt. Nearly ordered it for the store.

[davito]

I was trying the black one too but immediately fell in love with the ivory after trying it on. Very special shirt with interesting cotton fabric.
Never say never Danny

[tatmantall]

love that FH shirt and the waist coat aint too shabby either

[Cold Summer]

I have the exact same shirt, I absolutely love it.  It instantly became my favorite shirt.  The dobby stripe pattern reminds me of old-school video games.

My amazing psychic powers tell me that you bought it at VMC.  They're such a cool store.  I'd love to visit someday.

Somehow this beat another item ordered days before it from Japan

Cell bitch flannel by Glory Park. It's a doozy.

It is just a bit tight in the chest but otherwise perfect. So I can't wear a shirt under it, but the double brushed interior makes that a-ok.

Detail of the slack but thick brushed/double brushed fabric:

LOVE that, mcl.

[mclaincausey]

Thanks Sean–it was love at first sight on Rakuten. This is my green flannel in lieu of the amazing green IH herringboner.

Fingers crossed it doesn't do anything in the wash, that chest is touch and go. Spot on in all other dimensions. The joys of the interwebs. Really nice looking pattern, especially the orange contrasting.

[mclaincausey]

Yeah I'll be super careful. I don't mind selling it either if I must someone would get much joy from it

[grandmasterben]

I have the blue version, it shouldn't shrink much if you just cold wash and hang dry.

[mclaincausey]

Thanks gmb!

[Cold Summer]

Virtually all of Flat Head's shirts and tees are washed (that's what the "W" at the end of the product code means) and won't shrink at all unless perhaps you wash them in really hot water or tumble dry them.  The only exceptions I can think of are the unwashed 7001 denim western shirts, and of course Flat Head's jeans.

I've owned a ton of FH shirts and tees and none of them have ever shrunk with normal wash and wear.

[tatmantall]

Just my 2cents, but agree that the chest looks quite tight… If your comfortable with the fit tho rock on buddy

Hi man glad to read. Yup from VMC, when you visit Zurich one day just hit me up. Can show you the town a bit

Mclaincausey very nice flannel, i personnally like snugger fits around chest too. As long as it does not cut my armpits its usually fine

Our by appointment workshop has been called the Savile Row of denim. I felt the need for a waistcoat to really look the part. Real Japan Blues vest & Flat Head shirt.
