just curious to those of you who ordered the iron heart heavy flannel shirts...

does anyone also own a flat head shirt to compare?

I'm thinking the size Medium = a Flat Head 40 based on measurements

if that's the case I'm too late on a black one and will have to proxy one or something

Just got my flannels in. Real high quality stuff. Easily the heaviest shirt I own. The grey and black one has a really nice grey, the blue one is very very vibrant and bright.

How soft is the hand on those 9301's? Is it as soft as everyone is saying?

And what about the top block? I'm thinking of a size 29 or a 30??? I wear a 28 in 710bk Sam's. I like them skinny, but, not ankle grabbing!

Just as i thought, I'd need a medium in the new extra heavy flannels. Of course with my luck, the black medium is the only color/size sold out at SE,

which is the only color I really want...asdfghjkl;

I don't exactly know what is meant by a soft hand, but the word "armor" comes to mind when describing the 9301 denim. It is rigid and the weave is coarse, so it does feel a little rough.

The top block on these is generous, relative to the thighs and knees. There isn't really a consensus on sizing (some have gone true to size, sized down 1, sized down 2). It all depends on your bodily proportions. I sized down one (true waist 32, tagged 31). I am happy with the fit:

IH 9301, size 31. True waist 32.

I'd go with a 28 or 29. My current rotation are the 301s and the 710s. I'm a 30 in the samurais and I purchased a 31 in the 301s. I honestly wish i got a 30 instead, didn't expect them to stretch so much. As far as the top block goes, the 301s feel a little more generous but the legs are definitely a lot skinnier than the 710s.

I have both the 9301's and the 301's in size 36. I went true to size and both have stretched out and are a bit roomy in the top block. I think if they made size 35 I would have gone down a size on the second pair. I agree with Peter Parker the denim on the 9301's is very rigid. It takes a while to soften up while the 301's are fairly soft right from the start. I own many different brands of Japanese denim. I find Iron Heart denim to have the best workmanship and quality.

Big up... thanks for the comments.

IH Down Jacket is a bit sturdier than the newer style collapsable down jackets made by companies like North Face, etc. Construction is top quality and details as seen in Self Edge / Iron Heart UK website really helps keep the cold outside and warmth inside. Surprisingly, the jacket is also lightweight. The fit is great because the interior of the sleeves/body hugs close to the skin, maximizing insulation. I'd say with a thermal on plus the Iron Heart Down Jacket...you're ready for your winter adventure.

Wassup LandoCal... Yeah, I don't know why they came out like that but definitely the Black x Grey combo appears darker in person.
