This age of wisdom flannel is the best flannel you can buy, classy enough for date night comfy enough to go hiking. Has a stretch material that makes it amazing. Metal buttons are a nice touch as well. I am a big Kuhl flannel fan, and this shirt fits right in, but with a touch more class. I would say this is a mid weight or possibly even heavy weight shirt. Only worn on 2 occasions perfect in every aspect (like new).
