@Giles:

Fun Fact.
When I was in Japan with H and we were talking about future releases of UHF's, he said that they were at risk, because the importation of Aspero cotton into Japan is falling.  He is worried that the importer may stop altogether.  He has tried yarns made from other cottons, but none have been satisfactory.

ASPERO COTTON
Aspero is a naturally occurring wild cotton that is found in the foothills of North East Peru and being a tree it is not farmed and so is one of the purest most organic cottons available. As it cannot be mass produced it has been highly prized for generations by the indigenous Peruvian population for its qualities of fineness, softness, volume and also strength.

Man, that's not good to hear.  The Ultra Heavy Flannels are at risk??  I hope H resolves this.  The UHF's are the shit and IH is the only game in town for 12oz flannel shirts.

I can see that, I think you have a point there.  Amazing looking fabric but if I do decide to cop this one I will go Western.

No verbal abuse, just an explanation.  The crew and I sat down and decided that to make the western and the  work versions more different, we'd have black on one and cream on the other.  The western won the black game.  On the basis that this is a "work" shirt, we felt it was (pretentious alert…..) more honest to stick a good old common or garden cat's eye on it.....

It's always been made from Aspero cotton? That's funny I've never heard of it. Pretty cool…

Shirt looks so good!

[Giles]

Yes always….

[Broark]

I actually really like the look of the buttons, but I could see how they look plain to some.

Actually think I prefer the work shirt cut in this, and the white buttons suit the style too

[sabergirl]

Possibly no more UHF?! Cue my frantic scrambling to get the entire backlog. This could be a fun quest…

We are fairly certain the next 2 versions I have asked for will happen…..He was just warning me that my fun with UHF may have to cease at some point.....

First the 21/23 Loom breaks and now this!?  I'm with @sabergirl, cue the end times stock piling!

That controversial button….

[Hereforthebeer]

Buttons suit this colour way perfectly IMO

[Dion]

Controversial why? They suit perfectly to the shirt's appearance.

Is there any particular reason why the sleaves on this years uhf's are shorter? Usually H makes em all long on purpose

[BloodnThunder]

I blame the Aspero cotton shortage.

[Giles]

No particular reason…Every run of every fabric behaves differently. We used the same patterns....
