      Yes too big! I am usually XL and went with an XXL in this which is too big at all.

        Volcano this is my soaked Medium with a slongsleeve henley under it. If i remember correctly i have tumble dried it to get max shrinkage out. it fits me quite fitted around armpits what I like. My usual size is small, could have gone small but i like the medium for me in the 61. i am 173cm 62kg small built

        Check the table, probably you are good with a medium 🙂

        PS: forget that ban man 😉 j/k 🙂

        Cheers,
        David

          thanks guys. from the table, the medium looks good. but if they shrink more than 1.5" in the chest, they wouldn't work.

          would they shrink that much? i'm so so tempted to get the medium khaki now. fingers ready to click checkout

                  Here we go with chest and shoulders, approx measurements post-soaked tumble dried medium size

                  P2P 52-53cm
                  Shoulders ca. 45-46cm

                  Ok?

                  U should be fine when not tumble drying it imho what do u think?

                  Cheers,

                    so that's P2P 41" and Shoulders 17.7"? if the conversion is correct.

                    and if that's the case, medium is gonna be spot on! 🙂 you just made my day davito mate! appreciate it. thank you so much! off to get the shirt now. 🙂 khaki medium…..

                      Close-up of my chainstitch embroidered name tag on my IHSH-61. It was sewn onto a piece of the IH reverse cotton sateen (from IH-704).

                        Great customisation, Mike - like that a lot.  Glad this shirt getting some love, it deserves it.

                                  Here are the measurements of my IHSH-61, XXL. It shrunk a full size. It has had 3 machine washes and 2 drys.
                                  Chest-23.4
                                  Hem-23.4
                                  Shoulders-19.0
                                  Sleeves-25.9
                                  Length-29.0
                                  These come raw, that's why it shrunk a full size. The fabric comes to life after a couple washes.

                                    Thanks to jordan23 for the perfect trade!

                                    Got my 61 today and loved it right away. Bad pictures but you get the idea. The shirt is XXL.
                                    The fabric is great, it´s thick without being to rigid  - just very solid and made for years. the pockets are great as well.

                                    And yep, I could not resist and picked up the double-special khaki as well. Don´t sleep on this, guys. Theres one more left!

                                      I'm wearing my 61 over my red 70. It's a surprisingly warm combo. It's 32F out.
