Haha, I've been eying alignment. Collars, cuffs, pockets and yokes all appear to be standard MiUSA horrible. I'm learning to live with it. If I wanted perfect, I'd buy a shitty Chinese shirt. I live with it too. Also, no one will notice these inconsistencies but yourself. Fit will always be paramount. |

Agreed that the red is too close to last years TS (f them) Moto that I also have. The blue is too similar to other shirts I already have, but I liked the Steelers as a kid. Waiting for Rapistburger to leave though. Might still grab the yellow. What happened in your adulthood to ruin the smarts you had as a youngin? 😂 Aikman, Emmitt and Irvin with a side of Jimmy Johnson. It's all been terrible since then. |

The back yoke is different, but I could get over it if they used snaps instead of buttons on these latest offers.
I like how the breast pockets have the button on the inside, rather than center. Reminds me of FH.

Reminds me of FH. The buttons aren’t bad. They’re coated metal or something. But yes, I love snaps over buttons. |

I’ll say too that 3sixteen is good at developing unique colorways and fabrics. It’s what separates them from other denim companies. IH does this too

This is like a good news not so good news thing for me.
The good news is I really like that weave and the XXL will fit me.
The not so good news is I already have a TS in similar red/black, I don't really want another blue shirt, and yellow = Stillers colors. Yuck.
Stiller colors look good on everyone 😎 You can imagine my chagrin when we went to buy uniforms for the kids hockey team and they are black, white and yellow! Frick!!!
(yeah, I said yellow)
WHen I used to follow the draft I was super pissed we took Winslow instead of Ben.

IH does this too It's just hard for me to justify a flannel now a days. Thing has to be a crazy cool pattern for me. Sold off all my IH expect one. Doing the same with FH. I wish a brand would make a chamois Woolrich style shirt, that fits better than a Woolrich. The one I have is disintegrating with it being so old and a hand me down. |

But the fit leaves much to be desired. Very long, big everywhere like waist and sleeves. I would assume Filson would be similar, a fashionable fit isn't the prime focus for most chamois shirts I've noticed lol. |

Have you found something you like better than the IH and FH offerings in regards to Flannel? Just curious why you’d sell them all but have a hard time justifying more! FWIW I really like my vintage LL Bean chamois shirts. I agree they fit a little big but I bought them on the bay, went by measurements, and sized down. I only have 2 but I really like them both. |

No, not really. One of my favorites is from Macy's, and I wear it the most. American Rag. Most IH flannels are not sized correctly for me, (overly long arms and shirt length). Pay attention to people's fits, it's evident in so much stuff. Painful, because there is so much cool stuff that will look whack on me due to sizing. FH is even more wonky most of the time, overly tight stomach and much to long arm length. I find FH more comfortable to wear than IH, and the patterns are cooler (opinion of course). I'm only keeping the small handful that fit me well from either brand. |

Received my Slate Blue crosscut flannel today (always love getting packages on a Sunday).
It's nice, very nice. I would guess the weight is easily 10oz and the fabric has a very nice texture to it. It has a smart look to it for a flannel and you can almost dress this thing up a bit with some double black jeans or chinos. Only thing I'm worried about is the sleeve length being an issue after a wash. It's about on the short end of perfect now and I can't afford much shrink.
The colors are a bit more muted in person than I've seen in some pics on different websites but that's not a bad thing for me. I would say the Rivet and Hide pics represent the colors the best. I ordered mine from Standard and Strange though and shipping was fast.
I'm still tempted to pick up the red one but I'm probably going to pass on the yellow.

What’s the sleeve length? When I wear my crosscuts they feel short but actually measure about 26” from shoulder to cuff. But then again, I don’t exactly have gorilla arms either and can get away with 25” cuffs.

I might have to send this one back, I really cant afford any shrinkage in the sleeves. |

Another option would be to size up to an xl and hot wash the crap out of it.
