      Oh while I'm thinking about it- Giles, did you say that the new run of tee shirts was going to have a slightly different cut than the Shitamachi body tees?

      I know I could look it up, but I'm too lazy.:)

        Not different, but each size will run about 1/2 a size larger than the 2011 run…....In theory at least.....

          Ah, I know how this one goes… we won't be sure of anything until you get the shirts and can measure them yourself.  I understand, and now I'll stop asking questions about products you don't have yet.;)

              @riffblaster:

              broke down and got an ebbets field cap too.  tokyo giants 1952.

              How do these fit compared to a regular 59/50 New Era Cap???

              Thanks in advance.

              Cris.

              you can get your same new era size, but the construction of the crown is much more relaxed than a new era hat. i would say it fits like those hats you had when you were a little kid & the hats had the little brims.  hope that info helps cris

                  It depends what method of posting was used.  It is much like Royal Mail, there are about a dozen different posting options…..

                    3 - 21 days. Most likely 6-7 (working) days…

                                  For some odd reason this fella begs you to buy a certain "Seul" from the IH forum (is that where Nemesisnow1200 resides?) a, and this is the tricky part, Wabash (?) shirt in size M…

                                  Hope this makes sense to you!..

                                          This question is probably for Giles:

                                          With my ihsh-08ss, I have worn through a part of the stitching on the hem on the inside front of the shirt (the part that touches my jeans).  Some threads on the hem around this area are now beginning to come loose on the outside of the shirt (We're only talking 4-5 stitches, so not the whole hem).

                                          I have not washed this shirt yet.  With my SR's, it is recommended to wash so that the constructional stitches can "bed-in".  Does this same phenomenon apply to sanforized clothing?  If I wash my 08, will the stitches be less likely to shred or fray?  Or is my situation simply due to the nature of heavyweight fabric (its beginning to happen with my ihsh-34 as well)?

                                          It just sucks that I'm going to have to get a tailor to re-hem the shirt eventually.  And what's worse is that the chainstitches on the inside near the armpits are weakening and beginning to loosen.  I was looking at one of my dad's twenty year old Timberland chambray shirts that has been washed maybe a hundred times, and there is not a single shredded stitch.  😠

                                            You can bet your ass they will go on sale just like everything else in that store. I would wait to grab them if I were you. Surely come Spring, the price will drop.
