        Shrink Testing.  Air drying (camera tripod is a bloody useful bit of kit) after a hot soak:

            Thank you G!!! 634S-B and IHSH-21 look phenomenal! Can't wait for the post soak fit flicks and measurements.

              😞 😢 Giles, Forum members all; I'm sorry for (unintentionally) misleading you when I said this shirt shrank after a soak, I did genuinely measure it before and after and my results showed considerable shrinkage. I've just taken it in to Giles's where we measured it again and sized it up against a new shirt. There is near as dam it NO shrinkage. Trust Giles's quoted sizing when ordering, it is correct, and will stay so after washing. I shall now go sit in my corner of shame.  😢

                  Simon, step out of the corner, I repeat, step out of the corner.

                  My bad for not doing the shrink tests before you came around yesterday.  I was not expecting that the waft of heavy chambray would make it a mile down the road and you would be round like a dog on heat before I got to do the soaking.
