I tried to take some evo shots lately too, but there is not enough to be postworthy.

IHSH27, by far my most worn shirt (and if only every evening on the couch), since, I think, March.

Contrast is not that sharp in reality, so i was pretty surprised what a flash and auto contrast can do…

Max, When it comes to Combs, you are an animal.

[Max Power]

Thank you, yeah, I am a sucker for combs (I wrote about the water recipe before). And I see you weren't wrong about the nice fading abilities od the Sh27, it just takes time.

[markmont]

Very likely that I will have the sleeves shortened and **possibly shorten the vertical length by an inch. Other than that, diggin' this shirt.

nice markmont
careful about adjustments though
this one will shrink more in the wash even if you've already soaked it

[Clop]

This shirt also gets pretty crazy combs with wear, so sleeve length will shorten as well.

[Max Power]

why would you wann shorten these sleeves? looks perfect to me. And whjat the guys said is true.

[markmont]

There's a decent amount of stacking, i guess you could say, in the elbow region that I just don't want. That area highlighted has a good inch of excess folded over in the crease.

It'll settle. Wear it hard for a month first, I'd say.

[jacoavlu]

mark I'm guessing M for you? I wear S and find the fit perfect, washed twice and I swear it still shrank a little more with the second wash

[markmont]

we'll see - I'm 5' 7". I can wait on adjusting the vertical length since that won't affect any fades or anything. But I don't want to get creasing in the arms only to find out that I want to shorten the arms and have a ridiculous shift. As it stands now, from the elbow up it's noticeably baggy. Don't want to do a hot soak because everything else fits fine.

[Seul]

Isn't this shirt supposed to be soaked prior to wearing?.. It could/ would help with the vertical length and the length of your sleeves, markmont…

I realise you don't want the other measurements to change, but shrinkage of chest is minimal, really...

[Giles]

That shirt is raw, you MUST soak before wear.

[jacoavlu]

oh I presumed mark had already soaked it

[markmont]

^^ I did soak it. What I meant was I don't want to soak it again.

[jacoavlu]

try a half cuff to get rid of some stacking?
