After a new pair with minimal details and think the 400T might fit the bill, so resurrecting this thread.

After something relatively slim - thinking I might size down? Fullcount 1108 and 1109 is my usual benchmark.

I have the UES 400T in 34 and the 1108 in 35. UES is definitely roomier up top. More room in the hips and thighs. So you can definitely size down compared to your FC 1108

Ah, thanks for the response!

Any of you jumping in on the flannel pre-orders? UES is a brand i'd still like to try but am unsure of fit. How much does shipping usually run to the US?

wow, that orange heavy flannel ! going by measurements I'd need a size 3 and Im usually a medium in Japanese brands

[JDelage]

I placed a pre-order for the indigo polo; it should arrive in a few weeks.

I have an indigo heavy flannel shirt, and it is a gorgeous material. I'm not sure it's the same as the one in preorder here. Mine has acorn shaped pockets.

One thing about UES shirts is that I found they tend to gape when you sit down. I don't know if it's due to the number of buttons or how close the buttons are sewn to the edge of the placket.

I have two UES heavy flannels and wear a size 3, usually a Japanese size L western M. 

Great shirts

The first Navy check and the last heavy flannel on the pre order page are beauties!

I wish UES was consistent with their pocket shapes. I really like the acorn pocket style and think this is a detail that separates them from everyone else. Not a big fan of those giant rectangular pockets

I really like the navy flannel check as well, might be my first UES shirt.
I liked the reissued one that they sold out of too.

On my heavy flannel shirt order, the shirt was 17,400 Yens and the shipping was 2,200 Yens.

hi, any idea why I got my pair from ues with denime's button? is they in the same vendor? lol

I received an indigo polo that I had placed a preorder for several months ago. If anyone's interested I can post pictures. It's just a dark indigo polo shirt right now; there's not much to see.

That's the one. I'm actually very happy with mine. It's starting to evolve very nicely. I'm having it shortened because it's a bit long to be worn untucked on my torso (I'm 5'9" or so).

During this month I have been wearing new stuff from UES almost everyday. brown and grey duck shorts, indigo and grey polos and the new band collar shirt.

New flannels up on the UES website 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Most of the "fades" are probably just dirt from the home renovation 

[JohnM]

b_F, that's a heavily worn and faded pair of jeans.  What the heck?  I thought we were brothers in buying too many pairs and finishing last in various fade contests? ;-)

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I'm sorry John. I really don't know how this happened

[julian-wolf]

Got my first Ues flannel in a few weeks ago and it's probably my best-fitting overshirt. Construction is top-notch; fabric is v. interesting & v. comfortable; cut doesn't feel like it's made for someone 6" shorter than me nor 30 lbs. lighter. Will definitely be buying more shirts from them at some point in the future.

Came with a cute little baggie cut from the same material, too.

[DeafKate]

Looks great julian-wolf. Love the colorway, and the little change purse is a nice touch. Wish they did a western version with snaps. You buy direct from japaneseselvagejeans?

[julian-wolf]

Yep, direct from the website. Transaction went smoothly and shipping was fast once the stock came in.

[ColonelAngus]

Cool pics. I hope to buy a UES flannel someday. I've been admiring this brand for a few years now but never pulled the trigger because their bigger sizes are few and far between.

[ColonelAngus]

Couple more new flannels on the site. Inside looks brushed too

[Spiraltoy]

Does anyone know where one might be able to buy ues flannels in Tokyo? Bought a pair of jeans at their Daikanyama store a few years back but when I asked for flannels he just looked strangely at me.

There where no tops at all in the store at that time. Granted, t was hanami so mild weather.

[ColonelAngus]

Check Rakuten. I came across a store that is selling the current batch of flannels. Not sure if they’re in Tokyo though

If you are in tokyo they will check items are available at head office and bring to Tokyo store in a few days or you can  order from their site?
