Iron Heart’s 9oz selvedge flannel work shirts take their stylistic inspiration from the bold American check patterns of the ‘70s. This unbrushed cotton flannel weave is a vibrant and contrasting blend of intersecting indigos, blues and yellows – all reactive dyed for some impressive pop. 

Unlike your typical colourfast reactive dyeing methods, however, Iron Heart have opted for a newly-developed approach that allows the colours to mellow and mature over time. So you get the upfront vibrancy of a reactive dye with the fading potential of something more akin to a sulphur dye.  

The shirt’s placket, gussets, and cuffs are cut along the selvedge and the whole thing is topped off with tonal blue stitching and cat’s eye buttons.  Here in Iron Heart’s Work Shirt style. Expect a touch more room through the body than Iron Heart’s Western cut – nailing a fuller but still very flattering fit.
