I need some cheap, slim fitting flannel shirts. Anyone know of the thickness of the material?

do you have access to uniqlo? They got solid flannels, but the color design is a bit whacked

Nope, I live in Canada and I don't really like the patterns. Any other suggestions?

Gant Rugger isn't too hard to find on sale from the Tobi web shop, at Urban Outfitters, &c. I've found that their shirts fit great with a $15 tailoring job to taper the sides or add back darts (depending on whether there's a box pleat). Guess it depends on your definition of "cheap", though.

Also, they're kind enough to match the pattern of the chest pocket against the shirt. Looks weird otherwise, IMO.

They do run short, though, as an FYI. I'm 6 feet tall and the medium came down above my belt on the sides. They have some of their shirts at Bonobos too, so you can get them like half off with those gilt/fab deals.

I am 6ft 1 and I live in a remote town in northern Canada so not much selection with just an Aeropostale, le Chateu and a few other skater stores. :facepalm:

Good point. I'm 6'1" (albeit relatively short-waisted), and there's no way I could wear a Gant Rugger button-down tucked in. The sleeves are long enough for me, though, and I wear a 35" sleeve on a dress shirt. I actually like the shorter body length because I prefer to wear my shirts untucked, and I don't need to worry about hemming the shirts when I get them tailored.

Sunny Sports Anchor Jacket - Made in Japan - $525

In packing for a trip, I just realized that I have an EG CPO shirt jacket in the same grey herringbone wool, also with anchor buttons :\ Must try the Mallory....
