Argh!!! That's okay… I thought that might be the case... Oh well. Thanks giles

All I can say is that their idea of a 42 is a bit snug, if accurate in the chest. I have a western that is ironically roomier than a work shirt in the same size. Can't figure those guys out. Love their shirts though.
They make regular size, and wide size. You need to check info before you buy them. Some stores wont even list it.

Supa Giles:
I recall a wicked leather jacket or two by FH a couple of years ago, about $1300-1500
What happened to those? -

thanks einstine

If anybody want FH gear rakuten is giving free international shipping till tomorrow. Get Fh tees for $68!!! And flannels less the $200
My new diamond & dots shirt just came in
Got a 44 because my 42 of an older FH wabash is a bit too tight. I think a 43 will be ideal. Anyone tried shrinking one of their denim shirts? It's pre-washed but pretty sure I can blast it down to size, would be interested to hear if anyone has done the same.

I don't want to tell you to destroy your shirt by attempting to shrink it, but I was talking to Tyler at SELA when I tried that shirt on and he said that even though its rinsed you can definitely can some shrinkage out of it. Good luck!

I just about akways hot wash my shirts to get just a bit more of a snug "tailored" fit…. I know many people are scared of the washing machine for some reason but its my best friend for adjustments in size... I was even able to get shrinkage out if an IHD-01od which reportedly had zero shrinkage left because of OD process... Just my $0.02

Ran home for lunch and blasted the DnD. Almost a perfect fit now!
Thanks for the advice y'all!

Also got a lot of tailoring done on my heavy short sleeve chambray IH by doing a scalding soak for a half hour and an air dry. It didn't seem one-washed to me, fits perfectly now.

I ve done it three times. No shrinkage at all. Sry mate!

Interesting–I wonder if your washer or dryer isn't high temp enough? I blasted it once for 27 minutes alone and inside out in the washer set to whites, dried it on high for 45 minutes, and it got the job done.

I dont even use the dryer just a hot wash on high spin air dried and get plenty of shrinkage.. Have a front loading HE washer if that makes a difference…
-
Yeah. As mentioned I used a utility sink and feckin hot ass water for a 30 minut hot soak of my IH as chambray and air dried that. A supposed minimal shrinkage garment that was a tad large now looks bespoke.

Didn't Paula have one?
