Outdoor Research  Feedback Flannel Shirt - Men's

I have been buying the feedback flannels for years I absolutely love them. They fit well, look super nice, and Are nice for working in as well. On the left chest there is a pocket with a pen/pencil slot and the pockets have always been divided by stitching but they are not divided by stitching this year. like in years past. I'm guessing the design of this was changed, if so I hope going forward the divided pocket will come back!

I'll start by saying that I'll start by sating, this shirt looks relatively nice and s a very contrasted color compared to other flannels I've seen from other companies. I purchased the blue and it looks seriously nice. The fit is nice. I'm an XL with broad shoulders and a wide chest and I found this one fits better than the other OR flannels out there. Paired with an undershirt, and a wind jacket, you'll be kept fairly warm, especially if doing physical activity such as hiking. My only problem is that the seams and stitchings is not as durable as their others. Rolling the sleeves has caused one of the sleeves to rip around the buttons twice.

I've purchased two of these shirts in the last year. I wouldn't be too surprised if I end up with another color next year.... The quality of the polyester weave & stitching on the Feedback is great. You can tell the shirt can take a beating, but it's still got a nice, cottony feel. So you're not losing any comfort with that durability. These shirts have been great for layering during cold months in New Hampshire; I wear them to work and to the pub. I haven't tried it on the trail yet, but paired with a baselayer, the Feedback might make for a nice autumn layer for light hiking. I'd say you're guaranteed to get a ton of use out of this shirt!

This shirt is awesome! I am wearing it right now as I write this review and I am warm and comfortable despite the chilly room I am in. The flannel is super soft and the shirt is stylish enough to get away with wearing as casual work wear (depending on your job of course). I am a teacher with an icebox of a classroom and I can't feel the cold emanating from the un-insulated brick wall of my class thanks to this flannel. I am 5'10 and 210lbs and the large is a perfect fit for me. I am thinking I will pick up another couple of these in different colours so my students won't think I am too weird wearing the same shirt everyday other day.

I have been buying the feedback flannel for many years at least 8, over the years I have been seeing changes some good some to make it cheaper to produce. I liked the old pocket design because I could put my phone in that pocket and it was easy to put in and take out, however I do like the look with the new pocket design it equals out the two sides and I prefer that. The old designs shoulder pad/ double material came down over the shoulders close to the pocket that gave it a unique look but limited you being able to embroider a logo there, the new design opens the chest up more for logos above the pocket for businesses and I like that. The new design has a larger outdoor research tag on the pocket and that bugs me, in the past the tag was smaller and blended in with the colors, now it pops out more and I do not care for the look. Over the years they have taken away the OR embroidery on the back shoulder blade, in my opinion to cheapen the production cost. They have also gone away from the metal looking buttons to more of a basic plastic button and the button holes are pretty tight. This year one of the buttons on the arm is a different size so you get two different size buttons as spares, all being the same was nice so you could steal a button from there if you needed to. Overall the feedback flannel is still a nice flannel but the price has gone up significantly even though I feel the changes that have been made are to cheapen production. Also seams like they changed the design so they can make this their primary selling flannel. I miss the Sandpoint flannel, that one fit great. Pros Lager chest area for logos More color options Double pocket flaps Softer than many years ago( will see how it holds up to my 8 year old ones) Cons I feel like the fit has loosened(more baggy) over the years Buttons are not as nice and button holes are tight Has lost the OR embroidery on the back shoulder over the years Two button sizes on arms now Tag on the pocket Price

This is my third one of these shirts. Love them. They definitely have a lumberjack/Brawny paper towel guy thing going. I got my first two Feedback Flannel Shirts a few years ago and they are still soft and comfortable like the day I got them. I really like how thick and heavy they are - thicker than a standard cotton flannel shirt and more comparable to a Woolrich or Pendleton wool shirt. But the Feedback is way more soft and comfy than its wooly bretheren. I wear these shirts to work and also as a mid layer for resort skiing on cold days. Sized to be worn alone or also to fit over another shirt like a light jacket. I'm 5'7" 135 lbs, and a S fits me perfectly.

Last year I got my first feedback flannel and wore he heck out of it. Love that they are poly and I can wear as a layer for skiing, shoeing etc. So I was eager to grab a few more this year. Wearing them already and ready for winter but something seems different. Maybe a little more fitting (snug) in the shoulders and the cuffs... I need to unbutton the cuffs to remove the shirt. Silliest thing, and I really miss this, is the embroidered 'O.R.' on the shoulder is gone. Another label is missing from the front. So yeah, petty, the Feedbacks will still be on me a lot this winter but I was sad to see those little details gone....

I love OR products and promote their clothing and gear whenever possible. This shirt is nice, the quality of fabrics and weight BUT...I am a true medium at 6' 160lbs, lean athletic build. The chest and shoulder fit well. The problem is the sleeves are long and really baggy in the biceps, you'd have to be built the the ultimate warrior to fill them! Even worse is the torso/waist of the shirt is made for a gut. I have no other way of describing it. Instead of a trim or even relaxed fit it's overly baggy. Summary: It will fit good if your have a skinny chest and shoulders with HUGE biceps, long arms, and a beer belly. Hmmm, maybe that's the current state of America.

I find myself wearing this enough that its filthy most of the time. Its starting to show its age with some stains and the elbows are getting a little thin. Great for around town, backpacking, or skiing. Dries fast when wet and also keeps you warm. A great flannel. The arms are a little short for me but the XL was huge on me so I just deal with it and went with the L. I'm 6'4" about 185. My only complaint which is really no big deal is that it doesn't have any extra buttons. When I lost a button I sewed a non matching button onto it. Like I said no big deal, but if you pay $85.00 for a flannel it should have extra buttons.

As soon as I opened it from the packaging, I knew it was going to fit great. The materials are premium and feel so soft, as someone with a skin condition this is a big deal for me. The final is perfect for layering or just wearing ad is an outer layer on a brisk day. I also found that it's really breathable, normally I would get really hot under my arms, etc. but that's not the case with this one. I plan on purchasing more in the future, thank you OR for making a high-quality product that I can count on.
