Aren't those made by 3 Sixteen? And can we just call them Tebow? It's really annoying typing that out.
Not a huge wool fan, or a fan of the 3:16/Tebow/Bible Thumper rear yoke.

Pockets aren't spaced the same, or level. Sad.
Why can no one do this right?!

Why would they destroy a beautiful Pendleton fabric that way? That yoke is atrocious.

I don't mind the pockets, if they were the same distance from the placket and level.
And for the record, this is why I want a VP wallet and not a Tanner. Doesn't hurt that I already have a VP bag.

The pockets are centered to the buttons, not the placket.

That yoke is atrocious, though. Even if King IH did the slant front pockets, i wouldnt want anything to do with em (except admire the fabric), same with the sawtooth. I didnt realize the power of the pocket--to make or break a shirt--was so influential, but boy was i wrong.

Yeah, are we talking about the skewed pockets or the Tebow flap?

Yeah, are we talking about the skewed pockets or the Tebow flap? I dislike the asymmetric/angled ("Tebow") flap/buttons on the pockets. I'm not a fan of misalignment either but I'm admittedly not as tuned into the concept as some, and didn't notice these until pointed out. I'm guessing exophobe was discussing the misalignment issues (you bentin brought up) and then referenced IH and the 129 fabric skew, re positioned pockets trying to reconcile said skew. My confusion. Thanks for getting us back on track. The rear yoke seems more subtle and therefore a palatable change, than the in your face, cant miss, Tebow pocket flaps. Maybe as my experience grows I'll learn to hate the subtler details

I'm just talking about the slanted pockets. I don't know if there's anyone making flannel with aligned pockets right now, so I was just curious what the thought there is. No flannel?
If was referring to the fact that IH doesn't make a flannel with square aligned pockets. I find hat viewing it under a microscope of detail shots, it looks somewhat disorienting, but wearing the shirt and looking in the mirror, the eye accepts it pretty readily.
No excuse for whatever that yoke is, though.

Yes, the yoke remains the most egregious disaster of any 3:16 shirt.

Anyone else think they also look really belled out at the bottom (and narrower at the shoulder) strange cut, unfortunate yoke, and inconsistent cutting/sewing. The tail of that blue one is 2" longer than the others. At least take a second to make it look lined up in photos

I would have snagged that grey one if it didn't sell out so quickly, gorgeous.
I'm also personally a fan of the angled pockets! I've seen them on some really great vintage shirts as well as a lot of FH stuff. I think they're different in a good way.
