      White's Semi Dress.  No pics; they're going straight back.  Apparently, I'm a size 10, not a size 10.5.  Not happy about my decision to not send my measurements in to Kyle and let the expert determine my size.

            10 in the 50s Service Boot, so Kyle and I thought that 10.5 would probably be right.  He offered to check my measurements to be sure, but I declined.  In retrospect, not the best decision I ever made.

                so that means you´re taking the same size (in numbers) in Vibergs (UK10) as in your White´s (US10), right?

                  My mistake won't haunt me as long, though.  Nor will it inflict misery on others, like yours has.  He's kinda like herpes, isn't he?:D

                  And yeah, Finn, looks like I'm a 10 in both.  Doesn't seem right, but there it is…

                          I suppose now would be the appropriate time to mention my mis-sizing adventure with the IH-68, huh?

                          (short version for those who care: I ordered XL.  Returned it for XXL.)

                            I'm assuming you're normally an XL in IH shirts? Quite a run you're on, Chris. This member appreciates it though, haha.

                              Honestly, I'm not sure- I only own IH tee shirts currently, and I'm a size Large in them.  Living in Houston, I don't have any real need for IH's other shirts.

                              The XL actually fit well.  If I had posted fit pics, people probably would have said it was perfect.  I thought it was a touch small through the shoulders and arms, even though it looked fine.  I was worried that any shrinkage at all would render it unwearable, and I'm to lazy to baby my clothing.  Since all the numbers on the XXL were only about 3/4ths of an inch bigger, I thought it would work better.  We'll see when it gets here.

                                Yeah, good luck with the XXL. If it is too big, I would go back down to the XL and not worry about shrinkage. I actually tried to shrink the 62 a bit, without any luck. The new Wabash is really stubborn and holds its shape well, which I actually consider to be a very good thing, in the long run. I hope it all works out for you because, as you know, this new Wabash is really nice.

                                    I actually needed some shrinkage on my 62.. after several soaks and still unhappy with the fit I flipped the bugger inside out and threw it in the wash with hot water and medium agitation. I ended up with an additional right around 3/8" shrinkage in all directions and now fits perfect… but still very stubborn... worn it quite a bit and still has the new stiff as a board feeling... kinda crazy now that I think about it. My IHd-01od softened up much faster

                                      Thanks, tatman. I think I may give that a try. 3/8" is about all I would want. I still love the 62 and highly recommend it. Oddly enough, I had the exact same experience with my IHD-01od as well re: softening up sooner. You have good taste in IH shirts, sir.
