@madmonday:

Christmas was great, my kids & wife are well spoiled.  i got a lump of coal in my stocking, but i made out really well all of 2011 so i really can't complain 

thanks for asking tinman/

your sizing issues on this suck, in the future try putting up your store credit for sale

can't wait for the workshirt of this

great idea on selling store credit, I wish I would thought of that….

[madmonday]

Jordan23, i think he would be flattered & you do have a great fit.

hopeful there won't be a next time tinman

I'm still wondering whether a size S would work or not… Bear with me: my best fitting IH shirts are the 50 and the 43... Specs:

50 (M): s2s 17, p2p 21 (most important measurements for me)
43 (M): s2s 17.3", p2p 21.5"
55 (S): s2s 16.8", p2p 21.5"

Length on 43 size M and 55 size S is the same... Help!..

[J-IV]

I'd say S.
From what I know, this shirt won't shrink. And if one of your best fitting shirt has the same measurements as a S, it's your best bet. XS looks too small and M looks a tad too big for your taste.

DO NOT SIZE DOWN IN THIS SHIRT…...

[rocket]

can tell you that you are not the only one thinking about this… if the shoulders are ok for you, think it should work

but I decided for me to go for a M, once they come back in stock and I get chance to buy one…

Haha! Ignore me as well. Mr. G has spoken.

Awaiting restock then.

[Giles]

It is my experience that the heft of this fabric makes it feel smaller than the measurements suggest…....G

[Seul]

That said I have decided not to get the new 08 in M then… Thanks G.

[rocket]

yeah Dr.Pat said something like this as well, what did let me stay on the safe way, any word on a restock date?

[Giles]

On the way from Japan at the moment, they may even be here before the sale ends…...

[rocket]

interesting…

[Seul]

I know markmont is on the hunt for a M and that guy doesn't fool around… Will have to be quick to the draw when resupplied...

i experienced this to be true

[DrPat]

This shirt is slightly larger than the IH standard but in my opinion not large enough to size up.

The model on the Self Edge web site looks like he sized down based upon how the sleeves and shoulders look:

That guy always seems to be going for the XS…

@Seul:

That guy always seems to be going for the XS…

so true.. was just about to say that this guy always looks like crap. not because of his mustache, just because he always sizes down 3.

Waiting for monday to say I size down too much as well…
