Flannel Folk
Outsiders might think life in Minnesota is one big snow drift, but that’s far from true. That said, it has snowed almost every day this week here and Halloween is still over two weeks away. While we’re usually treated to a sweet and savorable autumn season in Minneapolis, this year it truly seems like summer skipped directly onto winter.
Stunned and unprepared for such a crazy climate change I’ve been wearing a pair of solid flannel shirts from O’Hanlon Mills I bought last winter. One a powder blue and one a hunter green.
Non-plaid, I’m free from the lumberjack trap with them, and they’re just cozy enough to keep me warm but never so thick that I start to get hot.
I’m sensing I should stock up on semi-similar shirts, and this fuzzy flannel from Folk is perfect in every way it seems, although its price point and perhaps that stray yellow button on the front. (Red would be better.)

- I don’t think Ill ever be able to make myself wear a flannel shirt. At least not as thick as this. – Looks amazing though.

This looks like a quality shirt. I’ve recently been turned on to hickorees online and that place is a venerable cornucopia of manliness. I’ve recently picked up a couple quality flannels and they super essential. Stay cozy Minnesota!

A venerable cornucopia of manliness…
Ha!
Someone should steal that as their brand’s tagline while it’s still up for grabs!

Thanks! I was going to use “Mantasticness” but that might be a bit much.

Ha, a venerable cornucopia of manliness works extremely well for Folk. I adore this brand and this shirt is just delightful!
