      Def go over the details with someone knowledgeable before diving in nose first, G… Lots of these things are more sketchy than buying a Mercedes with Albanian licenseplates and two dead men in the trunk...

        Honest opinion, is this shirt too tight?

        Honest answer, no your gut's too big…..

        Seriously, I'd say it is just about OK, maybe wear it with te bottom snap undone - that's what I tend to do - it appears that it is only that one that is losing the will to stay snapped

          Just a T underneath? You would probably benefit from an inch or so in the mid section but it is not too tight imo. One of the flannels you should use to layer during the colder months. If desired for outerwear, too small. Hope that helps.

              Thanks guys, since purchasing this shirt I've received so many PM's/ emails/ messages from people wanting to buy it from me that I almost relented.

              I'm trying to reduce my gut, but it's not as easy to drop as it was a few years ago…...getting old(er) sucks  😞

                think it fits similar to mine on the border to tight chest wise, but I like mine the way it is….

                      shirt is fine Mega.  keep it & wear it in good health, you can always undo that bottom button like that mad lad from that states  😉

                        As one of the people who wanted this shirt…I still think it looks good on you.  The shoulders and chest look great.  And, I really don't think it looks too tight in the gut either.  I say keep it for now!

                        Out with the new! In with the old!

                          i did a search & i found a box of the Legal sized log books.  they are nasty as all hell & i wouldn't  "donate" them to my worse enemy.  thanks for the patience on this as i forgot when i got back to work & didn't remeber to look until  today  😞  not going to be able to help you out on this.  if i come across any by chance i'll send you & jaco pms & you twos can decide what you would like to do.

                          all the best & again sorry as i knew they were around, just didn't know they were sooo bad off.

                            Huh, I just noticed this post

                            We use those all the time in my agency for inspections. I can get as many as I want

                            Only problem is that it usually costs me about $50 to ship to the UK

                                        in the winter of 2009/2010.  that's when the IHSH-20 dropped & the IHJ-04 dropped in XXL

                                            Only problem is that it usually costs me about $50 to ship to the UK

                                            Interesting! I'll PM you tomorrow if that's ok?

                                            Sure

                                            I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose
