I think you could easily wear an XL.

Yes, you are right I own XL in black, but is a little roomy it works with heavy layers

The fit on you is what I would expect from a boxy pair of 501's ie perfect. I just ordered 1955 501xxz but am tempted by this too.

I just got my first high-quality flannel shirt, an olive one from UES. 15.5oz. Best shirt I've ever owned! :) I was really interested in Iron Heart previously, but I decided to pass and forget because of the long sleeves. However, I do own their M65 Sateen jacket, and I absolutely love it.

I have both kinds of UES and IH UHFs. Many of both. Started with the IHs then got the UES. I significantly prefer the UES shirts ( both of them ) over the UHFs. My two cents.
@Beyonder1881 8 күн бұрын
Interested -why you prefer the UES?
@jdaasbo 8 күн бұрын
@ on the lighter 14 oz UES the texture of the fabric is amazing. The 15 oz have great texture as well but their main advantage is just a heavier duty and warmer shirt. The UES designs/patterns I think are more interesting as well. The Iron Hearts are great, don’t get me wrong. But their downsides are super long sleeves. I’m 6’4” 200 pounds, long at,s ( 35 inch arm in a dress shirt ) but the iron hearts are still super long in arm length ( I go XXL or XXXL depending on how a batch measure ). The texture and feel or the aspero cotton is nice but not as much as the UES. If the UES cost what the IH cost and vice versa, I would still prefer the UES. But at the price of UES, it is a no brainer for me. The iron heart denims and wabash variants are out of this world and far better than any other manufacturer that I have tried. Don’t get me started on the Iron Heart suede or horse leather shirts. Those are killer.
@Beyonder1881 8 күн бұрын
@@jdaasbo Thanks for the detailed comment. I guess the IH make sleeves so long because its a motorcycle clothing company so you want longer sleeves when riding etc. Im yet to try any and will only do so if I can try on given the high price. For UES I have ordered online and have both sizes 3 and 4 in flannels- older batches 4, newer ones 3 as I think the sizes increased a little (I'm about 82kg/180cm). Wearing the red UES UHF today!

Great video. One question about the Ironhearts. On their website, they advertise two chino cuts -- 730 (regular) and 731 (relaxed). Weirdly, the 731 relaxed fit, which is bigger in the thigh and knee than the 730, is slightly smaller in the hem. Which model are you wearing here -- 730 or 731? Thanks.

Great and in-depth video! Thanks! But I do think, if I'm identifying it correctly, that the Studio D'artisan is 12oz Suvin Gold cotton? If so, that would arguably make it the best quality? Or is this a different model?

It is an early version. I want Suvin Gold 👍👍. The quality of the cotton is better, but still, I believe the Aspero is just a little bit better

I´m from Germany too. I've been wearing Merz by Schwanen since 2012 ( first sold via Manufactum-Stores). Unfortunately, I've also noticed a loss in quality in recent years. Stitching is no longer done neatly, and Merz has hired contractors in various countries. Under “Production” you can now find on many products: “This garment was manufactured by one of our partner companies in Portugal”. To my knowledge, not a single sweatshirt is made in Germany anymore. As a result, Merz unfortunately follows the same path as other companies. The expansion and scaling of production at the expense of quality. The price-performance ratio is no longer right. I have a tip: I have to check the quality first. The Reverse Weave collection from Champion.

world class video! Quick one: I am from Germany, actually living 40min from the Merz B Schwanen production. Let me tell you with a very very sad heart that the quality (raw materials) has noticeably declined due to them having gained huge popularity with the „Bear“ show. Not only have the increases prices across the board but also they started to cheap out on raw materials (Tees, Sweatshirts, Hoodies) Very very unfortunate

Have you ever looked into Wonder Looper? I have the Iron Heart and love it, but I find my 20+ ounce WL hoodie far more interesting. They're designed by the same individuals who run Naked and Famous, so of course they went out of their way to make the heaviest hoodie on the market. I'd suggest checking it out.

I think iron heart is the best all around. Sizing is always posted and you always know the quality is good and they are usually one washed so you don’t have to worry about shrinkage. The customer support is always good as well. This is why IH is popular.

My recommendation is to look into Buzz Rickson's. One of the best is 36oz 100 % Melton wool and faithful to the period. Private Whites are very nice, made in England of 30oz of British Melton Wool. If you pick the BR from a Japanese website like Klatxon, Japan is cheaper, or in the UK website, I believe it is around £700. I own the Buzz Rickson’s and great peacoat
