I'm trying to take some pics to post up but I just can't capture the true colors on my crappy cell phone camera. The orange is coming out much brighter than it is in person. My daughter comes home from Cali tomorrow so I'll try and snap some pics with her camera. The way you guys are talking you might as well be trying to take a picture of a unicorn.  |

This fabric is way thinner than the 127's. 12oz to 9oz is quite a difference, at least in regards to the 127 compared to the 137.

Received my blue 137 today and this thing is tits! XL fits me perfectly and now I really wish I would have ordered a yellow. The colors on this fabric have much more of a faded/vintage look to them than I was anticipating so I can imagine the yellow in person is not as loud as it looks in some of the pics. Love this thing. if anyone wants to sell a yellow XL then hit me up. There's a yellow XL on Rodeo. Oh snap...I literally checked about three hours ago and that yellow XL was not there. They have more Blues now too. It looks like they've restocked again. |

This fabric is just ridiculous. The subtle herringbone that disheveled mentioned, beautiful colors, white snaps, vintage/faded look, soft and comfy....70's vibe. Amazing fabric. |

Going through the IHSH-137 photos, yellow definitely looks better than blue. But being Asian, I can't get the yellow based on principle (not enough blue to be able to call it a blue shirt). Blue/Reddish Orange is still an easy pass.

Our skin tone is considered yellow, so it's not advisable to wear yellow clothing, but really, it's not a blue enough shirt for me. |

Well I'm white and I wear white shirts with no problem;) That was my issue with the yellow shirt as well, I wasn't sure how it would look against my skin tone. I honestly don't think I have ever owned a shirt that yellow in my life. |

On a related note, Giles and friends made a jab yesterday at Gustin for the Golden State Plaid they released a few months before, about copying them, even though it's not the same fabric. Classy. |

Unicorn with cell phone cam. That's the TS baby poo for comparison.  The parts where it's mostly blue with yellow and white herringbone stripes is great. If only the rest of the shirt was like that. |

I hear the idiots didn't even charge 1/3rd of what normal brands charge for a flannel. |

ickes but that's a high mark your asking the yellow to best. Its just not as versatile as the blue, but with a navy v-neck underneath it and blue jeans it'd be dead sick. I'll reserve final judgment for when I'm in the right size and Ive actually see it paired with some pants
