Iron Heart’s 9oz selvedge flannels get their unique colours through a blend of dyeing processes. The darkest yarns in the pattern are indigo-dyed, while the lighter shades are sulphur cheese-dyed. This creates a flannel with deep, nuanced shades of indigo that will fade naturally over time.
The check pattern itself is a labour of love. It’s slowly woven on the only four shuttle looms in Japan capable of producing this intricate design. The slower weave also imparts greater heft and texture. The shirts are left unbrushed for a touch more structure while keeping things breathable.
Please Note: Iron Heart refers to this plaid as a “black check” to differentiate this colorway from their pure indigo shirts. The dominant colour here is a deep indigo, which will gradually lighten with wear and washing.
