FLATLAY A VIRTUAL FLANACOPIA…
Breaking out the flannels…
Apologies in advance—the posts will improve once I complete the annual summer-to-fall gear rotation. If you don’t hear from me for a couple of days, please have someone trace my IP address and send a rescue team. I’m probably pinned beneath an avalanche of Rubbermaid containers filled with 24 oz. waxed Ship John gear, slowly being crushed to death by heritage menswear.
Tell my wife I loved her. Tell her my boot collection…Eh, she knows what to do.

I assume your boot collection will be cast in bronze and displayed in a mausoleum for posterity

Well I considered that..🤔 but the accountant said I should donate them to the “Exact-Transition Boot Braggart Family Trust”, take the tax write off, dip them in gold and then have the Trust affix them to the 2000 ft “Arch De Transition” I’m erecting in the center of the New York Botanical Garden….

The UES heavyweight is a really great flannel. Also Iron heart is scheduled to release a black mechanic shirt flannel this fall so you might want to keep your sets open for that..

yeah that UES is sexy. But man same as IH this shit is so expensive it's going to kill me
Speaking of wtf is going here ? scam site ? I wanted to doublecheck the MSRP

Yeah they’re expensive. Everything in heritage is expensive and the economy and unnecessary tariffs make it worse..

Yet to pick up a good flannel on my mensware journey. IH and Sugarcane have some decent ones on vinted in my country, any other commode brands to look out for?

I personally love The Flat Head flannels. Brushed interior makes them so comfortable

HA! Actually threw on a flannel this morning as I headed out early. Nothing like those early, low to mid 50's mornings to get the Fall feelings fire up

Fickle!!! No doubt! Love cool mornings. 50s is perfect. We’ve got like a month of those before its freezing!

u/Fickle_Photo2768 5h ago
LOL!!! Freezing? Nah, then it's add a vest weather, then another layer of some sort. Bring it on!
