The Flat Head Block Check Flannel is the best of both worlds, combining a buffalo check with a herringbone pattern to create their own original pattern! This flannel is is warm and beyond soft, the texture is created by old shuttle looms & brushed back and the fabric can hold air and has great heat retention. Flat Head really cares about the details, hence the cat eye buttons, the sewing threads are hidden in the dent making them less likely to wear out or be removed. These urea buttons are resistant to heat & shock, and are very durable.
