If the TS fit gets close, I prefer US made to Proper Cloth, although nothing wrong with Portugal. I greatly prefer the star jack, especially the light one, to either the pyramid or that particular PC. But you're not me, get what you like, or all three.

Or don't get either one Just trying to learn more about each fabric! Someone the indigo pyramid is a super beefy 9oz? TS doesn't give enough stats about their fabrics, just narratives. |

i assume it's the same fabric as my 3Sixteen 3/4 sleeve. it's the same print and color at least. the material's different than any other shirt i have. it's a broadcloth - dense but breathable - when you hold it up, you can see light through it.

I got mine yesterday, and that's exactly how I'd describe it. I love this damn shirt. It's super dense. It's AT LEAST 7 oz. Thickest broadcloth I've ever seen. But it is strangely also not dense feeling. It holds its shape well, but doesn't feel heavy. It's super breathable like you say. The texture on the shirt is awesome, but it also feels soft. Wearing it today with khakis and it looks awesome. I am seriously considering going back for the cherry blossom. |

Twill flannel or Chamois Flannel? Looking to pick up a flannel for upcoming winter anyone have both?

would probably decide in the following way:
1. do i want my flannel to be soft as a baby's bum? yes - get the chamois. no - go to #2.
2. do i like the plaid/pattern better in the twill than the chamois? yes - get the twill. no - go to #1.

Can't stand brushed flannel, so no chamois for me.

Chamois is so soft and awesome. If you don't like soft unicorn angel fur fabrics stay away from chamois but if you want to wear heaven get chamois.

Chamois and moleskin are underutilized by our favorite brands.

I'm down with the moleskin pants. Fuzzy pants are cool. Can't do fuzzy shirts, just flowers.

Damn it. Reading this thread after some beers made me order the Blackwatch Yosemite -- I was going to resist, because I wanted it a little darker. Sigh!
I resisted the Indigo Pyramid at least ... I'm annoyed that I didn't back the Swift Utility Shirt though. I wonder if they will ever consider re-stocking that. Oh I should just order a quality japanese workshirt, maybe Studio D'Artisan or Samurai....

Just something to consider. True I might just need to dry clean them. But there is something nice about having a shirt that you can just wash and dry and not think about too much. |

No, don't have it. It looks nice but it looks too much like the Lee Rider jacket which I've considered buying
