A really great flannel shirt - the material is soft and comforting, the weight is reminiscent of the old school flannel shirts that my dad wore, and the cut is perfect for my 5'-11" / 165 frame (I ordered a medium). This shirt is also exceedingly well crafted.

I gift one of these to myself every year I usually get a plaid one but I fell in love with the solid blue color that I ordered these do run a little bit big so I just order a size smaller than I usually wear.these shirts are awesome and so worth the money
Super soft and comfortable. Patagonia does a nice job with the sizing, a medium fits perfect. The sleeve and shirt lengths along with the room in the chest are right on.
The cuffs and overall length are perfect for a fit/trim build. The chest pockets are nice if you tend to put a phone in there. This shirt is soft and warm, perfect for nights out, skiing or wearing to work. This is my second one.
Perfect for tweener weather now and colder weather later
Bought this for my husband after he nearly wore out his nano for cooler evenings on the lake. This is the prefect weight for a little additional cozy warmth in summer and will be great for fall and winter as base layer. Fits well, flannel is substantial, soft.
runs a little loose but has a great feel! if you want it a bit more fitted just size down, that's what I do. Ive owned a more colorful version for almost 6 years or so and its been amazing.

As I type this I'm dealing with an on going dispute over running socks elsewhere, going on 2 weeks now. Big difference in how things are handled.
Patagonia Fjord flannels are my favorite. This is my third Fjord flannel. It's so soft even when brand new. Now to get it nice and faded for that well worn look.
Am very happy with this great heavy flannel shirt. The fit and weight are perfect and can see wearing this often on camping trips and out and about. Love it!
I'm a female but always order the Men's Fjord Flannels for the colors, plaids and prints. The medium is a nice, relaxed fit. This shirt is a staple in my wardrobe. GET ONE!
I ordered a Men's Medium in hopes that it would be a bit oversized and I could wear it for chilly mornings and nights! It did not disappoint! The fabric is comfy and soft and I just love the oversized feeling to wear with leggings! I am 55" and 155ish...for reference!
This is my third Fjord flannel. Luxuriously soft. Warm. Comfortable. Just right weight. My only issue is this: right out of the package, it is a bit big, mostly in the length. So, I wash them and dry them about 4-6 times, and they do shrink a fair amount. Maybe a couple inches in the length. I then stop drying them in the dryer and hang-dry them to...

I love this product but this color pattern was too horizontal, that is to say the strips were dominate going horizontally, without enough vertical cross strips.
This is my second Fjord flannel and I love it just as much as the first one I purchased (had to cop a second color). Very soft and comfortable design. Gets better with each wash it gets. The chest pockets are us useful and I enjoy having two button options for the sleeves.

First off, I read many reviews that said this shirt was oversized, but the Medium fits me really well. I'm 5'9", 160 lbs. Tried a small, and it was way too snug. Nice, thick, soft material. Too expensive for me at full price, but a good value at 50% off.
I am a 50+ year old, 250 pound tubby overweight gut with wide shoulders. I have many Patagonia garb in my closet and my biggest problem with Patagonia garb is the slim build they seem to favor. This XXL shirt fits me perfectly. This shirt is surprisingly warm. I have a Patogonia XXL Moleskin shirt and this shirt is warmer, softer, and looser than t... Read Morehat shirt. But the Moleskin is better under my leather jacket while motorcycling. This shirt is, by far, the best flannel shirt I have ever owned and fits me beautifully. It hides my gut well. Plenty wide enough for my over-sized gut. The pockets fit my iPhone X plus just fine. The arms are slightly too long, but that is what I want. I couldn't ask for a better cut.
I generally run a medium tall. In the shirt I got a L, and the arms are the right length, but the chest is much too large. M was the opposite- arms were too short but the chest was ok.
Super warm and comfortable. Really like layering these shirts on colder days. Great material. Fit is a bit loose but not too big. My closet is filling up with these.
It's about time I wrote a review about these flannels. I have over 10. They are extremely well-made, and every year there are at least a few designs that I really like. They fit really well (I'm 6'1" and wear a Medium, although I have a couple in size Large for a roomier/baggier feel). They're decently warm too; often I...

I picked up a second Fjord Flannel Shirt after owning my first one for a few years. I'm 6', 165 lbs., athletic and got the medium. It's a relaxed fit. Be aware that hem will rise an inch or so after repeated washing/drying.

Well made, super soft, comes out of the dryer wrinkle free. I bought to wear open over tee shirts. Cool, button up, hot, unbutton. Fit my needs perfect.
Second time buying this shirt for my boyfriend because he loved the first one so much. The first one is still in amazing condition after him wearing it regularly.
I got this shirt last week and have worn it just about every other day. It has enough weight for the Pa winter nights and perfect for sitting in hot buildings comfortably. Definitely gonna buy more of these shirts! 5’10 and 175/180 lbs Athletic build and a medium fits perfectly.
These things are built to last and how are they so soft and warm at the same time! Whole family covered in them. Love love love!! For reference I am 5’7” 150, chesty and XL fits loose the way I like.
My husband loves these flannel shirts... I think he owns 3 right now... I got him another one for Christmas knowing he's going to be so happy about it!
Being 6'3 and 175lb many clothes fit me awkwardly given my torso length and width. However, the Fjord Flannel in Medium didn't hang on me like a scarecrow, nor did it swallow me!
I am finally leaving a review on these since I now own 3. They are super comfortable and I think they have a few unique color patterns that I get complimented on.
For fit I wanted to describe my experience. I originally bought a medium and it fit pretty perfect but after I washed it (cold water delicate cycle. No heat dryer for 5 min and hang to d... Read Morery) it shrunk pretty good at the sleeves. I swapped for a large and it has been fine after washing. I am 6'4 and 185 lbs so fairly slender. The large fits well with sleeves but it is pretty long on the torso. I still really like them and like I said earlier I own 3 but they definitely look a little silly popping out from the bottom of my jacket. That is the explanation for kinda large.
The quality seems top notch. The original 2 I got for myself Dec 2018 still look like brand new even though they get worn regularly. They are fairly warm. I went ATV riding in October in Northern Pennsylvania and a sweatshirt plus this underneath was more than enough for a mid 50 degree ride.
Price is a little high but if they continue to hold up like they have it seems like it will have been worth the price.
What an amazing shirt. Soft. Not to warm but also not too thin. I wear an XL (possibly too many donuts) and I’m a shorter guy. So the XL was just way too long. The large was the right length but doesn’t fit as well. Really too bad because I wanted this shirt to work out. But that me not the shirts fault. Plus one more star for Patagonia’s mission t...

Best flannel material I’ve found anywhere so far. Husband wears his two flannels constantly. They’re the perfect weight- warm but not too warm and buttery soft
The material is surprisingly cozy and keeps me warm. There is a very subtle pattern to the weave which I find kinda cool. I'm 152lbs, 5'10" and the Small fits perfectly. I'm between a S-M in most brands.
I had been eyeing these shirts since a friend got one. I recently purchased two and was disappointed to realize I got the wrong size.

The shirts are super comfy, well made, and stylish, to boot. The Smalls fit perfectly. I highly recommend this product and brand. Well played, Patagonia!
I’m 5’9”, 140 lbs. I went with the small and it fits nicely, a little roomy, but very comfortable.

Super comfortable
Extremely comfortable shirt. A bit on the boxy side. Some shape would be nice.
This is my second Fjord Flannel. It’s the exact same quality as the first. My first was bought in 2015 and I wore it literally all the time in Alaska. I was only in the Anchorage area, but it got me through winters 2015-2019. I wore it almost everyday at work, never ever let me down. It’s my favorite flannel, it’s Patagonia you get what you pay for... Read More.
I'm very into flannels and I like to add to my lineup whenever I find a new one I like. I've been getting at least one variant from Patagonia over the last 4 or 5 years and I love all of them. There are always a few variants each year that I really like in terms of the patterns, and they are well made, comfortable, fit well and last long.... Read More One of the first ones I ever got I wore so often that I got a hole in the elbow and I took it into the store and they sent it off to patch up for free. One tip I'll give is that usually I wear a Large in other brands but with most of the Patagonia stuff I wear a Medium, these Fjord Flannels included. The M is the right fit, but I also have a couple that are size L and they're nice to have for a bit baggier and relaxed fit.
The Fjord Flannels might be my favorite product from Patagonia. I highly recommend them. Keep up the good work buds.
I've been buying this shirt for 3 or 4 years. The fit is consistent. The fabric is comfortable and durable. Plus, the fabric seems to be softer and even higher quality this year. I usually wear size MD shirts but I buy a SM in this shirt because I prefer a closer fit.
I'm 38 and consider myself quite picky when it comes to my flannel. This is by far the nicest feeling and highest quality flannel I have owned to date. I told my wife that she be seeing me in it a lot. Runs a bit large, I am 5'8" 160lbs and normally wear a medium in everything but the small is just right in this one.
I am a 5-6”, 120 lb woman and I love my soft and warm men’s Fjord shirt. I ordered men’s size XS and it fits nicely for how I wear it - open over a t-shirt. I love the straight cut on the bottom. It’s a nice alternative to the women’s Fjord, which is more fitted and has a “scoop” bottom.
I love to throw this on as I head out the door...but also have worn it on cold, sunny days on casual hikes in the mountain to include sledding. Sometimes its an outer garment and sometimes, I layer it with a Nano Puff vest--always warm.
Bought a couple of fantastic “used” flannels through
Worn Wear which I absolutely love. But could not resist getting a couple more when i saw the new patterns. Wife loves seeing me in the newest almost as much as I enjoy wearing it. Great service great products.
I love the quality of the fabric; Thick, soft, and durable. The product has a high upfront cost, but is more than worth it, because it's all about comfort for me.
I've only had to for a few weeks. As expected. Medium heavy, soft, and warm. I wear it more as a jacket than a shirt. I'm 5'9 145 lb and the SMALL is a generous fit, perfect for a top or mid layer. Colors are great also.
I buy way too many of these shirts. However for Chicago in the winter time I can’t get enough of them. It’s my go to shirt when needing to wear something casual, but warm. They’re nice and soft and come in great colors. Just wish they were a little tighter in chest and body at times. Though they’re still true to size. If I went to a size small it b...

Great shirt. Will most likely become much smaller after few washes, for sure size up. My husband has not it worn it yet but feels good & cosy on the body, we got it for his work wear outside for winter.
Bought one of these last season around the same time...wore it so much last Fall/Winter that when the ol' Patagonia sale came back around and I found another one in a different color (IN MY SIZE!) I snagged it right quick. Yup. Now at least I won't wear just one shirt all the time. I'm 5'11" 160 and the medium fits like it ... Read Morewas tailored to me. Love it.
Fit is true to size (didn't put it in the dryer because it is 100% cotton). Nice heavy weight flannel and soft feel. Too warm to wear it now for me, but it seems that it would keep you very warm.
I’m continuously between large and medium in Patagonia shirts this one no different. Large is super boxy medium I won’t be able to move my arms after one wash. I’m 5’11” 190 so I would think a pretty typical size.
Sorry to hear that the shirt has been a disappointment. You're welcome to [return](https://is.gd/DQq2nw) it to a Patagonia-owned store or send it in for a refund or merchandise credit. Please keep an eye out for the details we've sent to you by email.
This is one of my favorite shirts I own. It's soft. Like old-well-loved-blanket soft. And the construction is top notch. Great to wear on its own, or over a t-shirt. Fit is as to be expected. I wear a medium in all this Patagonia and this is no different. Great shirt. Will probably last a lifetime.
A useful and attractive warm shirt. BUT, as is the case with many Patagonia products, the sizing is inconsistent. The online comments indicated that this shirt runs large. So, instead of ordering a Medium, I ordered this shirt in Small, and it’s a bit tight across my belly.

Wear it any chance I get
My go to and most favorite shirt once the weather turns cold. Fits true to size and only gets better with age.
Nice heave weight flannel. Fits well and is super cozy. Stylish enough to wear out but comfortable enough to throw on to lounge at home. Has somewhat replaced a favorite fleece as my go to item for added warmth.
I bought the flannel and it came in 3 days, satisfactory to say the least, and when I felt it for the first time it was definitely very soft, but at the same time the weight of the product makes me feel that it is durable from the amount of material that was used.

This is the most comfortable flannel shirt I have ever worn, apart from my other Patagonia flannel. My only criticism would be that XL size is not consistent across products, the t-shirts are tight on me while the flannels are a bit too large.
Overall enjoyed the shirt. Decently warm and comfortable. Great flannel. Could be used as a VERY light jacket (wouldn’t use it for much other than that)
It’s a great feeling shirt. I wear it around the house when I don’t want to wear a hoodie sweatshirt. I ordered a XL, but probably will try a L next time they go on sale.
Thick but soft & supple. Living in the PNW and being a charter boat captain, I wear a lot of flannel. This is my new favorite. Washed it and carefully dried it on low because flannel always shrinks.

I bought this shirt in a size S for my almost 14yr old son. He loves it! It fits him perfectly and is just the right weight, he can wear it over a t shirt to keep warm, and it is light enough to wear on it's own. Durable, and a great design.
The Patagonia Fjord flannel has been in my closet since they started making it. I have many and even my first is still in my wardrobe. Worn but still being worn!!!
All the clothes and gear I’ve ordered consistently perform at top quality. I would love more in my wardrobe but unfortunately the price is a bit high. I’m limited to clearance sales.
I've been wearing flannel—sometimes every day for weeks—for probably 15 years for a lot things. I bought this 'cause the wife twisted my arm and said my old flannels were too, well, old.

Love these shirts but loved them more years back when Made in Morocco. Sleeves wider and length a bit shorter so worked well for me at 5’8” when worn untucked.Now sleeves a bit narrow and hem too long for anyone under 6 foot. Otherwise great designs and materials.
the greatest shirt ever made, bar none. I have some Fjord flannels that I have been wearing consistently for 10 yrs straight - without even replacing a button. I buy at least one every year when they go on sale. These shirts are freaking awesome!! I live in them!
Reading the reviews its hard to tell if this is too baggy or slim. Pat's fit chart put it on the extreme end and call it "relaxed". A 15 year old or a hipster walking in Brooklyn might agree. But for older persons, or for those who want to be able to lift their arms with out the buttons popping, this seems on the slim side (especiall... Read Morey since they call it relaxed fit). A "slim fit" , even a "regular fit" version would be nonfunctional. I'm fairly trim and the medium was hugging my chest and abdomen. (6 ft, 160). The large seemed perfect for me and my activity; maybe 1 inch long in sleeves (felt like a medium-large; not as large as some brands). So all of this is relative to what you like, or what Pat calls the "fit". But it is not baggy like some say. Some variation is expected- sadly manufactured in China. So, if your a hipster in Oakland wearing pants you can barely sit in, this may not be the shirt for you. For the rest of us, "rock" on.
I bought this shirt in a medium and it fit perfect. High quality shirt, but the second one I ordered in a different color was way too small. There has been a issue with the quality control of sizing consistency lately.
Best feel, best comfort... really hard to beat these. My collection is up to 7 different colors/styles of these shirts, with a few duplicate purchases to store in the archive and bust out years down the road. "Regular fit" runs a bit large, so one might want to size down depending on preferences.
I love this shirt. I got it as a gift and will probably buy another one. I'm 5'7", 155 lbs, and the small fits well. Just right in the shoulders, the sleeves are slightly long. The hem is too long to look right untucked so I'm going to have it shortened by a couple of inches. If not for that I'd give it 5 stars.
I stopped in at the Patagonia store in Portland on a whim and walked away with one of these. I ended up wearing it later that day and fell in love with it, so I decided to buy a second at the Patagonia store in Pike Place. Extremely warm, super comfortable, and the fit is perfect for me.

Great shirt!! It is "regular fit" so it runs large. I am a large t-shirt, but wear a medium fjord flannel. Very soft cotton and comfortable. I hope Patagonia continues to add more colors and patterns.
I'm not really a fan of plaid so I went with the Forge grey and I'm glad that I did because it is so easy to match with nearly everything. I am 5'9" and slightly round at the belly.

I'm 5' 6'' and 160 lbs so I bought both a small and a medium, based on the other reviews that says it runs large, and ended up keeping the medium because I found that the fit across the chest mattered most for comfort; I'm a 39. I found the size was pretty true so the arms are on the long side; probably 34" or so. Also the fit is "classic" so it is (too) roomy at the waist. But that means it goes over a T-shirt or other shirt easily.

Great stuff .....but I don't buy them anymore because you got rid of the hooded version.....please bring back the hood!!!!!!!!!......the hood makes this flannel so much more practical.
I bought the Fjord Flannel shirt just over a month ago,It has turned into my go to shirt. Very soft,and warm. The fit allows me to have freedom of movement while not looking boxy on my skinny frame. I am ordering another!
I own 3 of those in 3 different colors and I really love them. The cut is great,the material resists machine wash after machine wash and keeps me quite warm. My only small concern is with the colors. It's a matter of personal taste,of course. To me,they're good if you live in the countryside but they're kind of hard to wear in town. ... Read MoreI work in media and sport and dress casual all the time but with those colors available so far really make you look like you're a country boy. Uniqlo or Tommy Hilfiger make better everyday design with that sort of flannel shirt.
I'm a big fan of these fjord shirts. I ordered three more this season. And I was surprised to find that Patagonia has changed to a slightly lighter weight cotton than last year? I still love the shirt,but it would have been nice to know up front they had made the change.
I am extremely discerning when it comes to clothes and gear. This shirt rules. Whether its for work,labor,or pleasure,this shirt endures and looks great. Colors may mature a bit,but they don't fade. The fabric stays true,doesn't pile out or get thin. It just breaks in and becomes better with age. They are a bit on the pricey side compared... Read More to other high end flannels,but totally worth it. I try to get a new one every year or two,but my first one from 5 years ago still looks great.
I've worn flannel shirts from just about every company imaginable and this is easily the softest,most comfortable flannel fabric I've encountered. Even after innumerable washings it's lost none of its softness and warmth. Shirt runs a little large,but I'm 5'9",170 lbs and the medium is a good fit,so it's not outra...

I really like this shirt a lot when I got it. It's very comfortable,it fits right,and it's pretty warm. However,I noticed an issue with the detail that drove me nuts as soon as I noticed it. The plaid pattern is misaligned and a bit askew on the side seams. Maybe I'm in the minority here,and if the lines were at least completely para... Read Morellel,it wouldn't be so bad,but this strikes me as a big miss on the design. It seams (pun intended) to me that the pattern lines on a plaid shirt should connect at the seams. For a shirt at this price point,this issue makes it look like a much cheaper shirt.
Like most Patagonia long sleeves,this runs a bit large. I usually wear a large (6'2",200lbs,athletic build),but the medium fits me perfectly.
There are a lot of flannel options out there and it is nearly required uniform in the Pacific Northwest. But I don't always get compliments on my flannels and this one has 6-7 compliments in the 3 wks I've worn it. The fit is perfect,never had size issues with Patagonia and especially love the lengths of their shirts,not too long.
The Fjord Flannel Shirt is my favorite cool weather flannel. The material is thick and quite warm. When paired with a vest,like the Nano Puff or Nano-Air,you'll be warm enough on most winter days in the Pacific Northwest. When it rains,the flannel layered with a waterproof shell is plenty warm.

Patagonia for me runs on large,but this shirt fits perfect! Love the breathable feature of organic cotton,already own 3 of these,definitely will buy more!
Love picking up these shirts on sale. If this one is like the other one already in the closet,it should provide good warmth and hold up to use as a layer or just by itself with a vest. Have worn it only on some unusually cool Spring days so far. Sizing seems to have stayed consistent with a two year old one,which was a relief.
Got this at the outlet in SC for 40$. Needed a nice thick flannel. At the store I noticed there was a button missing and the staff took my info and mailed one to me. They sent me the wrong button color and no thread.. so I have one non matching button and discolored button thread. So customer service slightly failed on that haha.

Big fan of this Flannel shirt. I wear it to work and around town etc. It's really soft and fits great.

The only issue with this is that it needs to come in like 20 more color stylings for the PNW. You will... Read More look like every other person in and around Portland. Its a regular fit so a medium fits my build (slim fit goes large).
These are the best flannels out there. Nice and warm,and the material is very high quality. They do fit big,I wear an XL in all shirts and jackets but I always order these in large and they fit perfectly. Highly recommend!
This shirt is the warmest and most comfortable flannel shirt that I ever worn.
I liked it so much I bought a second shirt and considering buying a third shirt.
I bought this shirt for my husband because he wanted a heavier weight flannel than most of his other flannel shirts. This shirt is perfect. It's thicker than most flannel and SUPER soft. He is a medium and it's a bit big on him,but not excessively large. He wears it all the time when it is cold,I would highly recommend!
bought two of same short at once because I couldn't decided on two colors. Very comfortable,fits as advertised,and washes very well. Love the straight bottom,works and look great with any vest.
I have 2 of these shirts. They are great for staying warm around a campfire and you can wear them comfortably on a casual night meeting friends for beers. I wore one of these shirts nearly every night after a day of rafting on a 23 day Grand Canyon trip. I bought a second because I liked it so much!
When I first opened the package and felt the lush softness of this shirt,I said,"Wow!" My wife,unprompted,said the same thing. If it comes close to the legendary Patagonia durability,which seems likely,given the material and construction,it will be the best flannel shirt I've ever had.
I absolutely love the feeling of the flannel,it's softness is heaven on earth! It is great in cold weather and doesn't get too hot like other furry flannels. The material greatly reflects the high quality of the shirt and I know it will last me a lifetime. It may be pricey but on sale it's an offer that cannot be passed up.
I have worn this flannel almost every day since I got it and it is by far the softest one I have ever owned. Its hard to even make time to wash it because I never want to take it off.
I was deciding between the women version of this flannel or the original and ultimately went with the men's original. I like that its roomier across the shoulde... Read Morers and chest and not as long as the women's version. I do a lot of outside work so mobility is key. I'm 120 lbs,5' 3" and the XS fits well. Its not super flattering but soooo comfy and practical.
This is my second fjord shirt. Found myself always wearing the first so I purchased another. Fit is perfect. I am 6'1" around 185lb. My long arms are usually a problem but not with Patagonia
I thought people were crazy when they said they bought more of these after they got the first because it is a bit expensive,but I ended up buying two more cuz I never take it off. get them on sale and they are well worth it. Best flannel I've ever owned! 6'1" 185 lbs and L fits nice and relaxed.
It's my 8th one. I feel the need to tell everyone close to me that these are the best flannel shirts money can but. I'm 5'11" 185 and the medium fits like a gloves. Sometimes I wish the colors were a little different but the cut and materials are an absolute home run.
I'm 5'11",185lbs,35" waist,35-36" arm length in dress shirts. This flannel fits perfect. There is so much written about funky sizing,no idea where this is coming from. There is room for a t-shirt under the flannel,which is a good thing. By no means am I "swimming" in this,like some reviewers mention. Just want to ... Read Moreset the records straight. the feel of the fabric is incredible,stitching meticulous. Couldn't be happier! Very versatile piece - light jacket,out for an evening,or around a campfire. I purchased the navy blue,forge grey and oaks brown. Love the solid colors.
My husband is extremely picky about his clothes. I did good with this flannel. It's soft,warm and washed well. He wears it all the time. Size was spot on!
I bought this flannel a couple of months ago and have worn it basically everyday. It feels great and has held up on my weekly hikes and daily trips to the coffee shop. This is by far the most comfortable flannel I own to date. I'm 5'6" 175 lbs and the Medium fits me well,arms a tad long but not by much.
Great flannel shirt. Heavy enough for cold Seattle days,washes/dries well without needing ironing. Straight bottom so it can be worn untucked and stylish enough that it doesn't look like you bought it a bargain barn!
Every year I get one of these. I usually wear a medium in most shirts but in Patagonia I wear a small,especially with regular fit. I'm 5'10" and 165 lbs.
this is my second fjord flannel. love the weight of this shirt. great for cool weather or layering up.
sleeve length was good for me. my arm length is slightly longer... the body fits on the bigger side of medium,but i would say the fit is still overall a medium...
Thick and cozy. Bought the Oak Brown. A lot of yellow in that brown makes it quite mustardy. I would've rolled with it but the medium ran way too big. It's bigger than all the larges in my closet. Of course the small is permanently out of stock so I won't be able to compare sizes.
This is an amazingly comfortable and warm shirt. It's warm,but it also doesn't make you hot. I was in Denver and it was 15 degrees outside,I had nothing on but this shirt.

I bought this shirt for myself with Christmas money and it didn't disappoint. I got a large and it fit perfectly. I'm 6' and around 200 lbs. It's soft and thick so it's very warm and comfortable. Definitely want a couple more.
Nice flannel glad I got it but pricey comparatively to other flannels of the same quality. The best thing is your return policy if anything should go wrong with the shirt you will make it good.
Perfect addition to my winter layering,super soft and the perfect amount of loft. Couldn't find my size at the Pasadena store,but their staff looked around in the back and for once that actually worked. Thanks Patagonia! Avid customer since 1985.
I think I own 5 of these now. They look great and I love the fit. the flat cut bottom is wonderful as it looks good not tucked in. I get lots of comments when I wear them.

This is my go-to flannel for any outdoor activity during our "harsh" SoCal winters! :) It looks great,fits great,and the quality is superb. I bought one to see how much I like it,and now I plan to buy a couple more. Zero complaints- don't even know how they could make it better.
Bought this flannel for my husband. Says its the best one he has ever had. I have the womens one. Material is awesome. Fit is great. Washes well. Love it.
I now own two of these in different patterns. They are warm and comfortable. I am 5' 9" and 150 lbs and the small fits perfectly. I recommend them to everyone who might be considering it.
This is the best purchase I've made this winter. I like the roominess...it makes for a very comfortable winter shirt. If I want to be a little warmer,the fit is right for wearing a long sleeved t shirt underneath. The fabric is nice and soft. I really can't say enough about it. I will probably order another very soon.
I love this shirt. I live in this shirt. No really. It's winter in New England and this shirt is on every day. It's super thick cotton flannel,and is as warm and comfortable as it gets. I like this shirt so much,I bought a second one. Same color,same size.
Bought this for my husband,he's 6' 155lbs,a small fits him well except for the sleeves which are too short. A medium would be huge on him,so he just rolls the sleeves up. Not ideal,but otherwise he loves the shirt. It's a great layer over capilene and under a coat.
I bought this shirt a little while ago and love it! Not only is it warm but it fits like a glove. The material is really durable and incredibly soft at the same time.
I bought this a month ago right before we went on a 4,000 mile camping road trip on the West Coast. This flannel was warm and super comfortable and worked well in different temperatures. Now that I am back in Alaska,this shirt is my go to on cold winter weekends.
this is my 3rd Fjord shirt. It is a nice lightweight cotton,fits well over t-shirt or turtleneck,adds warmth to a shell or sweater without bulk. I get a lot of compliments on the shirts. I like the relaxed fit,and the sizing is right on.
I bought this flannel in the Windrow Toasted White for my boyfriend for Christmas and it was a huge success! He loves the feel and will tell anyone it is the most comfortable shirt he has EVER worn!

I bought this as some of my old thicker flannels were getting old. It's a great shirt,made well,fabric is pretty thick (as I wanted),cut is appropriate as I like to wear a tee shirt under it.looks great with Patagonia classic quality!
I bought a small as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend and he loves it. He did say it was a little big when he got it,but after a washing it shrunk a little and he says it's perfect now. He wears it constantly!

Barely got this before it sold out. Great fit! Love the soft organic cotton. Washing in cold water and hang drying so as not to risk shrinking. Love the color scheme best of all - dark greens with a hint of teal green in the plaid. Matches my Patagonia hat perfectly. Lots of compliments.
Very soft and cozy... great quality and pattern. Size runs a little big. I wear Large in Patagonia outerwar,but a Large flannel is too big to be a first layer on me.
Bought this as fall/winter shirt. Quickly became my go to for anything outdoors. I bought the medium (I'm 5/8',160lbs) knowing the description was "relaxed fit" and I think that is a perfect assessment.

I need to order 5 more of these. My favorite patagonia shirt so far. Super,super soft,never loses it shape or shrinks perfect fit for my normally XL size wearing torso.

Was looking for a long-sleeved flannel shirt - focusing on something that could layer easily. This is quickly become one of my favorite shirts,and I love the thickness of the shirt - really keeps you warm during those cold winter days.
I got this shirt as a gift. I have other large size Patagonia shirts that are great and fit great. This large shirt is extremely long and baggy. It looks like I have on a dress. I do not recommend this shirt to anyone unless you are a very heavy weight person.
I owned one from last season and decided to get one this season (Carbon). Highly recommended! Thick,soft and well made,with a lot of colour combinations.

This is my first fjord flannel,but not likely my last. The fjord flannel is probably the best flannel I've ever owned.

I'll be putting this shirt through it's paces around town and on the water and if it's anything like any of my other Patagonia gear,I'll be wearing this shirt for a long long time.
My only complaint is the sizing. I'm 6'1" roughly 195lbs with what I consider an athletic build. I have rather broad shoulders and a more narrow waist. For reference I normally wear a 16.5" x 36" tailored fit dress shirt. In the past,I've been able to wear medium Patagonia shirts and jackets. Being that this shirt is a "relaxed fit" I figured I'd be able to fit a medium however the medium in this shirt was very tight in the shoulders,chest and armpit area. The waist was perfect,not too tight but not billowy. The large fit great in the shoulders however the waist fits a lot more loose than I'd prefer. I ended up with the large since it's more comfortable and I'll just have to live with the over sized midsection. Still a great shirt,just wish the fit would be better.
Love this shirt. I'll most likely be in it all winter long. Might have to order another. Warm,fits great. Looks good,feels great doing anything from hanging out to chopping wood. Sizing is great. Not too loose not too tight. 6'2" 190lbs and the large fits perfect.
I live in these shirts in cooler weather! They work as a light jacket in mild temps,go great under a vest and they are a fantastic layer when the temps get colder.

I was out there for over two hours by the side of a lake waiting for help with a capsized boat,and I was glad to be wearing this shirt! As good if not better than a fleece.
Love this shirt. Wear it to casual restaurants and find that it is attractive and comfortable. The flannel material makes me feel good every time I put it on. Machine washable in cold water and air dries quickly with no need for an iron.
This years cut is just a wee bit smaller,but it is making a bigger difference in the ease of fit. Feels constricted in comparison to my older Fjord shirts.

No way is this an XL in a relaxed fit. Standing up straight with arms at the side, it fits, the...

I dare say I could go further and do a 'hulk pose' and rip the entire thing in the back. Mighty surprised about this as I say never ever had a problem in cut and fit and sizing ever. Will have to return it for an XXL. So if anyone does even 5 chin ups a day, steer clear of this sizing. It's a L at best.
I got this for my little brother. He hasn't even had an opportunity to wash it yet because he has worn it nonstop. Patagonia has done it again; their flannels are the best comfort wise and the fact that they are sustainably made makes them even better. Keep look out for us and our planet, Patagonia! You're the best.
I bought the navy XXL as I am 6'2" with wide shoulder and 37" arms. I always go with the XXL and am happy with the fit. This is my third Fjord flannel, and likely not my last.

This shirt is excellence in casual comfort. Great for sippin' whiskey and flippin' burgers. As far as fit goes, I'm 6'1" and wear the XL. The L fits better in the body but the arms are too short.
Super soft, good weight and boxy fit. I can tell I will wear this into my 80's if I live that long. Room for a long sleeve under layer in medium at 170lbs 5'10". It's a fighting shirt with a great thickness.
I own two and currently have two in my cart. These shirts are amazing, I wouldn't take them off if possible. The quality is great and the fit is perfect. I am 5'8" 165 lbs and wear a medium.
This shirt has a nearly constant smell of campfire and dirt rings in the neck and wrists. It has quickly become the thing I put on after a long day of work. It breathes, keeps me warm, keeps the mosquitoes at bay, and is much more comfortable on bare skin than my wool shirts.
I live in Chicago which means I use this shirt almost 300 days of the year. Best flannel shirt ever made. Every year I buy at least 3 of the new styles/colors. I have about 9 of these now and I will be buying 4 more this year. You will not be sorry

Favorite flannel - 2014/15 season slightly smaller
This is the fourth season in a row that I have purchased a fjord flannel. I love these shirts and feel like it is reasonable to buy one per year.

I wanted to just make sure to point out that this season the cut is ever so slightly smaller, putting me at the very edge of the Medium being too small (6'2" 195 lbs). Medium relaxed fit usually work well for me, and large slim and large regular usually fit me for Patagonia products as well. I noticed the difference immediately, but I still love it. Each other season the flannels felt exactly the same. Wish we could do half stars, I'd do 4.5.
Just received my shirt today and the fatigue green combo looks great and feels even better. I can't wait to wear it out this fall and winter. Fits true to size (I wear a large) and is softer than any other flannel I have ever owned. Great work, Patagonia.
Great styling. Feels super soft and comfortable. I wear it as a layer and by itself. I'm a Medium at 5'11/6' and 160-170. It will shrink a bit. It fits a little tight now, but I like it like that and it loosens up with use. If you like a flannel a bit looser go a size up and wash and dry it hot and it may shrink a bit...but don'... Read Moret bank on that cause it doesn't shrink too too much.
This flannel is crazy awesome! You can wear it with a shirt under or not it's awesome. I live in the Midwest and I wear this piece year round. Once again, patagonia makes an amazing product.
I've wanted one of these since they first were offered as I've always tended to run cool/ sense the cold a leetle more easily. But I never could manage to source one in a size M, in a color I found a little more muted/ subtle ... that fit my longer 35"+ arms... and in the process didn't wind up being blousy on me. (I'm near... Read Morely 6' and 155 lbs.) Discovered this on sale and hoped and prayed I'd gotten lucky. Zero regrets. Love the quality and weight of this org cotton. The cut is just right on me. It will see plenty of use over time in my day to day. When heading out my tendency would be to wear a wool sweater over it and then a wind breaker/ shell to complete things. For me a great rig for all but the most bitter conditions when walking/ taking longer hikes. Allowing that you get closer to the fit you desire... hard to feature anyone not loving this shirt and getting many happy miles out of it.
This is a timeless jam that I expect to enjoy for many moons to come. Whether it's sitting in the Westy having another cup of joe before wading the Metolius to cast a few dries, hitting the brewpub with the gang after getting off the hill or cruising through town on the Schwinns with your lady, this is the only flannel you need.
We have this shirt in wax red. The fabric is amazing, very soft and visually attractive. The sizing is right for a mature man. And the price compares well to designer brands. It is a wonderful shirt except for one criticism -- since I sew and am a bit fussy. Sometimes the plaid on the back runs crooked. I looked at several before choosing an accept... Read Moreable one! I can handle mismatched plaid on the sides but slanted plaid on the back does not belong on a more expensive shirt.
This is an awesome shirt. Not our first fjord flannel. Whole family wears them. Fits great on all the teenage boys, mom and dad. Mom prefers them to the woman's. A bit boxier and shorter in length. Good cut as it fits a lean build as well as stronger, stockier build.
I saw this flannel at the Austin location and I knew immediately that I had to have it! Well, they didn't have my size so an associate kindly offered to check to see if any locations had my size. They found one in Connecticut and I was able to pay for the flannel in store and have it shipped to my house. The best part about the transaction was... Read More that Patagonia waved the shipping fees and I received the shirt just a few days later. I love the shirt! It feels incredibly durable and warm. Soft material feels great on the skin as well. I might buy the same shirt in a different style because it is so great!
Wow-this product exceeded my expectations. Since getting this shirt I have worn it every day.
Extremely soft-great winter/fall shirt very warm flannel material.
Not sure about the other colors-picked Nickle and love it.
Nice work Patagonia.
Very, very nice shirt. Bought one, then immediately bought another one. And a women's cut Fjord for my wife.

Just received my shirt and was excited to check it out, was a little disappointed with the weight & somewhat with fit, it's no thicker than flannels I have from Eddie Bauer, LL Bean or Timberland, it is very soft though but most are when new. It is in no way to be considered an alternative for a jacket imo like some reviewers state. The fi... Read Moret is just about perfect but there is zero room for shrinkage, I'm 6'3", 235, chest is 46" and waist is 39", 37" arm,text book XL. It's very slim fitting in the forearms and biceps, waist and chest are good, when I flex biceps it's skin tight, arm length is surprisingly o.k. Nice shirt but there are other brands selling flannel just as nice for half the price that are also made in China, Bottom line imo, average weight flannel made of organic cotton with the Patagonia name marked up accordingly but made in China. If it were a hair bigger and for the price it was made in either N or S. America I would keep it but it's going back.
This thing is awesome. Super soft and warm, but still fits like a normal button down. The fit is a bit relaxed, but not boxy. i'm 6'1 190 with an athletic build and the Large is perfect.
This is an amazingly versatile flannel. I wear it almost everyday for any occasion. It is very comfortable yet rugged and warm, but not too hot. That being said, I've worn this outside in 5 degree weather for short periods of time and it kept me warm enough. The only issue I have with it is that the arms are just a little too short for my long... Read More arms. Great flannel overall!
Doesn't seem to shrink as much as the one I bought 5 years ago. Unfortunately that one was passed on to my wife and I'm still a bit jealous whenever she wears it. A solid flannel that will last many, many years.
Very versatile, good looking shirt so I own 2.
The straight hem and shorter fit allows me to wear the shirt untucked and even unbuttoned over a t-shirt so it kind of doubles as light jacket. I also wear it tucked in and buttoned

A nice thick flannel shirt. Arms are a bit long but over all feel I would get many years of use. Would not recommend as a jacket if it goes below 50 Fahrenheit.
Big guys beware: Patagonia XXL shirts still sport sleeves that are far too short for tall men. I wear a 38-inch sleeve and none of Patagonia's shirts come close despite the claims of the store workers. Patagonia needs to include tall sizes with extra-long sleeves in the XXL sizes.
I bought this flannel last fall and love it! I wear everyday during the fall/winter/early spring and it's held up excellently. Style is on par as well.
This flannel is a favorite all ready by my family and myself. Fighting over who gets to wear this means one thing in my family, a great product! Warmth, cozy and soft is also a great wear!
This is the perfect flannel. Hands down. I now own 3 of them. The shirt is a great cut, top notch quality, and when you put it on, you feel like a man. Mostly I just make skateboards in a shop, but if I wanted to, I could hack down some logs, turn them into panels, glue and press, cut, and then ride down a mountain in this shirt.
I generally try n... Read Moreot to skate in these shirts because I like them so much, but I have done it, and I've even taken a couple spills. A little scuff here and there, sure, but the fabric is tough and handles its own when other material would rip apart.
I am 6'1, 170 lbs and wear a size Large. Best fitting shirt I own, and I can wear it for anything as long as it's under 65 degrees. Wear it all week long and wash it at the end of the week. It looks just as good sitting in on a casual business meeting as it does trekking in the hills.
This is the perfect flannel - warm and sturdy, built to last. I couldn't be happier. I'm 5'9", 150 lb, Medium fits like a glove. I like the classic navy... simple and old school.
Be patient with the fit on this shirt...when I first wore it I was disappointed. I'm six foot two and skinny and the medium was as other reviews have mentioned...too baggy and too long in the torso. The sleeves however, were just right on my long arms. But as I've worn it and washed and dried it, this shirt has shrunk to fit me perfectly.... Read More The torso went from being way too long(like it was supposed to be tucked in) to the perfect flannel length(just below the belt). And the wide cut through the torso(like for a middle-aged guy) has shrunk quite a bit. The sleeves however, don't seem to have shrunk very much. Thanks Patagonia for knowing to cut this big enough to allow the organic cotton to shrink! Now I just need to stop drying it so it won't shrink too much:) Highly recommended!
I bought this Long-Sleeved Fjord Flannel Shirt last month (July). It is summer here in the Northern Hemisphere, and hot here in central California, so I haven't actually worn the shirt yet.

I bought my first Fjord shirt back in the fall and it quickly became my favorite shirt because of it's comfort and warmth. I just ordered my second to give the first a break now and then. As much as I've worn it I'm amazed that I can see no wear at all.
Best cold weather shirt ever. Super Warm. Hug-ably soft. Doesn't shrink. Goes in the dryer, and doesn't need ironing if you take it out promptly. Organic cotton! And just super high quality.

Yes, I date myself, but the old Navy wool Chief Petty Officer's shirts were great post-surfing and over a light T-shirt/light shirt to ward off the chill (better than a Pendleton).

I like the fit which seem true to size unlike other long sleeve shirts in this year's line which seem way over-sized and baggy for me. It seems to me that most surfers are average or slim in build, so I'm recommending this shirt.
It would be very nice to have this offered in a version for tall folks. I'm 6'2" and could use and extra 2-3" inches on the sleeves. Any chance Patagonia will ever offer any of their long sleeve shirts in tall sizes?
This a nice, warm and soft shirt of good quality. I had no trouble with the fit. But I miss the older style where the yoke, collar and cuffs were lined with a different weight cloth material. That extra detail completely set the shirt apart from other makers - especially in wear. I love wearing them. This flannel wears like it could be any other an... Read Moreother brand.
This shirt provides great feel and comfort. I belive this to be very important - particularly in very cold temperatures when a serious outercoat is needed. Its relaxed fit allows it to be worn as an overshirt, if desired. Having two button-down pockets can be a real plus, also.
My wife bought me the Heritage Fjord Flannel for my birthday back in October. And it is my go to button up whether I'm just working around the house, running around town, warming up before a trail run or snowboarding. Durable and warm.

Bought this shirt for my husband for Christmas. He said this shirt is soft and warm, one of those favorites that you go to because its so comfortable. Washes really well. Very good quality. Well worth the money.
I was skeptical. I buy regular and slim fit shirts (almost exclusively from Patagonia), but gave the Fjord a try even though it's a relaxed fit. And I'm glad I did.

I have bought two Fjord Flannels since 2009. It is probably my favorite Patagonia product. I have always worn a size small.
I just wanted to say that every year since 2009 the fit on these shirts has been updated. The 2009 Fjord Flannel had 6 buttons and all later ones have 7. The 2010 model was very large but I liked it once I had the bottom hemm... Read Moreed. The 2011 shirt was a little too tight in the chest for my broad shoulders, but the sleeves fit a little better and the length wasn't as long.
I think this 2012 model is fantastic. Much improved from last year. Once I washed and dryed it in the machine (which I prefer to do) the sleeves and overall shirt shrunk maybe 3-5% and still continues to fit great. The sleeves, length, and shoulder room fit wonderfully. I wouldn't change a thing. After several outings my shirts tend to stretch a bit then after washing they come out clean, soft, and just like before.
Please, Patagonia keep this year's sizing specifications in mind next year, when I'll be looking for two more wonderful colors. Thanks!
Of the 6 shirts I have, 4 of them are fjords and they are all I wear from October to May. They're comfortable (relaxed fit, so size down a size if you like a trimmer fit) burly and look awesome! The fabric loses some of its initial softness after the first washings, but I don't mind - the shirt is also prone to shrinking if dried in a mac... Read Morehine - so do yourself, your shirt and the dolphins a favour and don't run your laundry drier. The fjord provides a serious amount of warmth for a button up, so be careful not to over dress when wearing it, or you'll be sweating before you're out of your house. (why is my photo sideways?!)
I wear the Fjord flannels constantly from late fall through all of winter. Over a warm baselayer and under a light jacket/sweater, I remain toasty walking around at just freezing temps. These shirts are a bargain if you can find them on sale!
Sizing recommendations are pretty erratic in these reviews. I'm 6', 160lbs, and the small fits m... Read Moree perfectly. If you are also slender and do not want to tuck this shirt in, I highly recommend sizing down.
Here's what I mean by a perfect fit: the small Fjord is not skin-tight on me, but it is closer to trim than baggy, as much as an oversize flannel can be trim. When standing with my arms down at my sides, the sleeve covers the first inch of my palm, and the final button is maybe 1.5" below my navel. A small is indeed too short for me to tuck, but I never wear this as a dress shirt. If I had a bigger chest and wider lats, at my height I'd consider a medium.
The flannel to end all flannels. This shirt does it all, and does it in soft, warm, wrappable comfort. Like those morning spooning sessions you don't want to end... You don't want to stop wearing it.
This is my October-April weekend garb. T-shirt and the Fjord flannel and I'm good for just about anything. It's highly configurable, too.

color, the fabric is soft & warm. The sales
associate was very helpful in getting the color that I requested (gold/orange plaid on dark
background) at first it was out of stock, then
back ordered...worth the wait. Fits well too.
Purchased this shirt in size small as Patagonia shirts are being cut large these days. Normally wear a medium. Fits great and feels like a well-worn warm flannel should right off the bat. This will become a favored wardrobe staple. Order one size down unless you prefer oversize shirts. Silt color is very cool.
the shirt can worn as a light jacket in the fall and a perfect shirt to travel in for ski trips. The flannel shirt

My favorite shirt that I have purchased from Patagonia to date. I am 6' 180 pounds, and I usually buy medium shirts through Patagonia.

Great shirt - very warm and cozy. I recommend sizing down one size. I wear a size Small in the Down Sweater and the Ultralight Down Jacket, but had to go with an XS in the Fjord shirt.
I've collected several of these shirts over the years. True to size and the quality is outstanding - as always. Great for layering or over a Tee when there's a little chill in the air. Patagonia does such a good job with colors too. A real staple.
I have not worn the shirt much yet as it is mid Sept and not that cool yet. When I have its is soft and built to last, I have not seen a flannel this beefy ever. I like it so much I'm gonna buy another one. Can't wait for cooler nights and eventually snowy days! I'll give it 5 stars when its made in the USA!
This is the softest shirt i own..and i'm about to buy the other colors as well. It's my go to on a day with heavy marine layer, and the maroon/white color is timeless...as well as the fit. I'm 6-2" but wear a medium in almost all Patagonia gear...it fits great.
I can bust out a lengthy diatribe about all of the sweet things this shirt can do for you - but you really just need to pull the trigger and buy one. It is one of the most versatile and well-built flannels I have ever owned.
Fantastic shirt that is tough as nails. It holds up well in the PNW rain. I have a couple of these and one has shrunk quite a bit more than the other. The shirt is long enough to tuck in but not so long that it looks silly untucked. Placing my order for 2 more today!
Do I really need multiple Fjord shirts? Yes, my god yes! I guess it all depends on if you like your flannels to be comfortable, cozy, warm, and good for every situation. It's like a Snuggie except not stupid.
I love my fjord flannels. They just keep getting better with age. My oldest one is probaly ten now, and is stil one of my favorite shirts. Super soft and very heavyweight fabric.
Remember your favorite blanket that you took everywhere as a kid? That's what this shirt is like. You can wear it while you ride in the mountains or after you harvest some waves. If only I could get away with sucking my thumb...
I bought this shirt for my boyfriend and he loves to wear it to work in the outdoors. I on the other hand love to borrow it to lounge around in. Very warm and good looking shirt! Once again, thank you Patagonia.
This is a solid shirt. Reasonable thickness for functional outdoor/cold weather use, but fits well without feeling heavy. Runs a bit on the big side and have seen others frustrated by the length. I am a little taller (6'3) and L fits well, XL was too much fabric.
This is a fantastic, super comfortable shirt to live in, great for all kinds of travel and surf trips to Baja, skateboarding, anything when the temperature is brisk.
I like everything about this shirt. It can be worn tucked in or out. It's made from a soft and thick flannel that is warm, but not hot. Like all of the Patagonia products I have ever bought, the design is functional and the craftsmanship is excellent. The Medium fit is true and shrinkage is minimal.
Like others have mentioned, the sizing was much better last year. I bought 3 of these shirts last winter and basically lived in them through the fall/winter/spring.

I really wish Patagonia would have kept the same measurements as last year....alas, I will not be ordering any more Fjord flannels this year as the sizing is just too "off"
I love the "heft" and weight of this shirt, the style is great. What I can't figure out is the fit. I'm 6'5 and around 225.

Sadly, I've given up on Patagonia sportswear. I know you can't please everyone, but they don't really even seem to be trying.
I have only good thing to say re this fine product which I wear over a tee shirt. I purchased the large size and it fits like a glove. I'm 6', 175# with no muscle. When I venture out of doors I wear it under either the Nano-Puff jacket or the High Loft Sweater.
This is a great shirt! Super comfortable and warm. I highly recommend it. I can wear a t-shirt underneath for layering or all by itself. Washes easily. Buy one in every color!
I hadn't worn a flannel shirt in almost a decade, but I'm making up for lost time with this one. Thick, but not too thick, and so very soft, it's become an essential component of my fall uniform.
