IHSH-21-BLU - 10oz Selvedge Chambray Work Shirt - Blue
-
nice, I know that feeling! This was my first IH product as well (and still my only one actually, though I hope to change that soon). It's a good choice! I love chambray shirts and have had a ton of them from all sorts of companies. I have and have had a lot of really nice ones but none that was the equal of this….it really is the ultimate in a chambray workshirt.

another weekly driver for me. pretty sure you can catch me wearing this with my 666s & IHSW-02
at least once a week until May 2012, then i might take off the hoodie(s)dope gear

sad to hear this, was hoping this shirt would be the shirt equivalent of 634S.
two new blues you say, got to look through the Japan trip thread to get reminded of what might be coming down the pike.
-
We are releasing 2 new blue chambrays in this cut soon, if that helps alleviate the pain…...
I have no doubt they will be stellar!

Just began hand washing/ boil soaking my XL. Forgot to take pre measurements but the site has them so not to worry. I will document the shrinkage as soon as it dries.

Shoulder - 17.25
Sleeve - 25.5"
Length - 29.5"Looks like I definitely got some needed shrinkage out of it!

haven´t expected all that shrinkage.
glad it worked out though…now you don´t have to trade/sell and have one extinct item more in your closet ;)...Exactly. It is still a bit loose but that is the nature of a workshirt. Glad all my annoying questions to G worked out. Apologies to everyone that had to deal with my mental slip ups on this one as well.

It's such a dope shirt. I'm glad you undertook this experiment, because I now know that if I were to cop a couple chambrays, I'll definitely size up to account for shrinkage.

Glad I could be of service. I have gotten much more open and less meticulous over the past few years. For the most part different treatments or materials tend to shrink or not shrink the same way. The more you worry, the more likely you will get results you don't like or want. Just my thoughts. Love this damn shirt thought. Sad to see it leave.
Sad news indeed, still my favorite shirt
