IHSH-71 - Blanket Lined Denim Western Shirt

[Qinhan]

To G or anyone who owns this shirt, I'm curious as to how warm it is.  Comparable to the melton IHW-01?

[Megatron1505]

I had the IHSH-49, and I have an IHW-01, and yes definitely comparable in warmth.

[Qinhan]

Thanks Mega.  I figured that with the lining it must be pretty warm.  Giving this shirt some serious thought…

[Concret]

How is the fit on this one? I wear K in the IHSH-33, would be the same?

[Giles]

A "K", that's a new one on me…..

[Giles]

But, if you mean "L", I'd go XL….

[Concret]

Haha, damn telephones. I meant  L

[Giles]

Yep XL.

[Concret]

Ok thanks, ill check the measures and compare.

Sorry, anal Q: Could one machine wash this beautiful thing?… also, in consideration of sizing, would this require more sizing up than the (wonderful) melton 01?

[Giles]

Can be machine washed, it is one washed already…I size up 1 from my normal IH shirt size...

[FurattoHeddo]

Be carefull with mashine washing though as it can cause the stitching on the nylon quilt lining to unravel…

[scroogen]

When I wash my 49(same shit) I don't turn it inside out to prevent messing up the inside stitching and blanket lining.  I think the sleeve stitching falling apart is inevitable though. Mine is loose in a lot of places, and I'm no Bushmonkey…

Many thanks, gents. Thinking cap on (and time running out!).
