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.

[MikeC]

Thanks P.

Great shirt and name tag sir

[Giles]

That's not "Sir", that's "Cook"…

[davito]

Sir, yes Sir. Cook Sir, i am down for 50.

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.

thanks a lot bro!…

U need an XL or XXL. They shrink one full size, due to the fabric being raw.

[seanocono]

That's such a cool dog.

[Jesselirola]

fuck due to the sale i'm tempted to grab the last xxxl kahki to wear as a summer jacket.

more so after seeing mikeC's cover up job on the IH logo I'm even more tempted, that's what turns me off most about this piece.

should be an easy fix though!…

Do it up Jesse, but remember that the shirt is RAW, so it shrinks a full half size in all areas. I wear an XXL in this, but most of my other IH shirts are XL. This fabric comes alive after a couple washes and it's unbelievably comfortable.

These are very very tempting….

[Giles]

Shamelessly stealing MikeC's idea.

I have a name tag being made…37mmx165mm perfect for coverage.

[MikeC]

Very nice. Looks like your getting it done on the period correct nylon webbing too.  IMHO, this is the sleeper release of 2012 (as long as you get rid of the medieval Iron Heart font).  This fabric is amazingly comfortable too.
