Very nice Cris!

[jacoavlu]

yo Cris how's your shirt coming along?

[crisone]

Jaco….pretty much same as the last pic, it hasn't been worn a lot due to the buttons, which I had re-done, but still have to pick up my shirt.  So it should be getting a lot of wear once I get it.

Cris.

[Giles]

Loads of wears - two washes…

G, pimped with coconuts shell buttons. the same as the 44. possible to make it?

[Giles]

Ouch - too difficult….

[hajduk]

…why?

[Simon]

White buttons wouldn't look right with this shirt I gues that's why H. Went with black?

[Giles]

A) I specced black, cos I love them
Too difficult, because the request leads onto a multitude of other requesta and before we know what, we are a custom house making one-offs…..

[hajduk]

ok G. i understand.

[zhivago]

I am pretty sure their are folks out there capable of swapping buttons on IH shirts aside from Giles…just sayin

it isn´t even that hard tbh…just change/sew one at a time and you´re good to go...

Picked one of these up at SENY.  It's tough as nails.  Really psyched to break it in..  Anyone on the fence about this shirt should jump on it.

I gotta say - and this is off topic for this thread - but my head spins every time I log on here.  I don't know what to look at (salivate over) first.  And I couldn't possibly comment on everything that I look at - I'd have to quit my job to make time.

Maybe I'm like raw denim… still soaking it up.

G, when you get a second, can you post the measurements of your 53?  I noticed that everyone said more shrinkage expected after your initial soak.  I'm stuck between getting a XXL and XXXL.  It looks like XXL will shrink too much for my liking.

[zhivago]

I have no idea how to read one of them fancy measuring devices so don't ask but my 53 is xx and the fit is perfect, and I like em on the loose side. Hope this helps.

[Simon]

Mike, I'm a XXL in other IH shirts, my XXL 53 has shrunk down to the same size as the standard XXL. I can honestly say I've measured it but laying it on top of another IH shirt confirms this.

[MikeC]

Thanks Simon and Zee. Looks like it will be XXL.
