      Mine haven't really shrunk either, but this one and the 48 certainly did.  I agree, though, that it doesn't look snug.  The arms look a bit long.  The t-shirt underneath likely contributes to the snugness.

        FIT QUESTION - I have last year's Ombre flannel shirt in SIZE XXL.  This size fits well but I definitely do not want it anything smaller.  I'm 6'3" 195 lbs.  Should I go for an XXL in this year's version of the shirt?  My concern with going to the XXL is I do not want the body of the shirt to be too wide.

          It's hard to say for sure, but just to give you an idea I can tell you what I did with the 48…  I have the 38 in S from this spring.  It was a little on the small side for me, but generally worked well.  When I saw the 48 ran smaller, I went up to a M, and it was way too big.  After a wash it's just a little too big, but not enough to make it look bad.

          The upside it that it seems to shrink in the width and not the length.  The arms do shrink in length.  The loss was about 2.5% for the 48 and 47.

            You guys are right, it isn't really that snug. Though I was taking into account the post-wash measurements. But if it doesn't shrink that much, I'm pretty much doomed on buying IH shirts since this one was a XS…

              Is this a one run production item? There is only one left in my size/color.

                      So…is the general consensus to go TTS? Because, it looks to me, as per G's measurements, to size up 1.

                      Then I look at SE's measurements…and it's apparent that would be a colossal error.

                        It depends on how the other shirts fit.  I'm between sizes, so the M fits great since it's a tad smaller than a typical M.  The M is usually a little bit too big, but manageable.  Then you have to account for the slight shrinkage.  I'd say an M is like an S.5

                          In my experience, I went TTS which fit pretty much perfect. However, unlike Dave, I didn't take into account the post measurement so it might be a bit snug.
                          Hope that helps.
