      Well considering it is a Mechanics Shirt, they are supposed to run slightly larger and less fitted. I tried on both the L and XL at SE before I made my final decision. It seems to me that folks on forums these days tend to think that everything has to be, or is supposed to be fitted. I disagree completely! Not directing this at you Daveo. I mean, imagine some little skinny dude in his Tight denim and fitted mechanics shirt….. WHACK!

        Well I don't get the luxury of trying on before I buy, so the internet is all I can use for sizing.

        The XL looks good to me, I will have to measure up one of my other shirts when I get home today.

          I know I am lucky to have that resource and typically, G gets his shirts in before SE so I tend to be in the same boat. Due to short funds as of late, I waited on this one which allowed me to try them on in person. I would say if you normally wear an XL (which you do), to go with an XL in these. Also, the slits on the side make it seem bigger than it is around the waist. I may sew mine both closed until I reach plumper days…

            Looks good Lando, don't sew the sides though.

                Because the fit is good and like you said it is a mechanics shirt, plus the slits are just a small detail that adds to the overall shape/look of the shirt.  Just my opinion…...

                  Totally respect the opinion. It was just a thought. Not sold that I will do it but it did cross my mind. And I guess that would be contradicting my previous statements… Thanks D!

                      The fit is good, Large would have worked too, I guess - but Lando - what jawns are you wearing ?

                        I tried the Large and it was too tight. The XL is actually a little snug in the shoulders as well. A pair of Stronghold Carpenter's…

                            Hey thanks Beats! I actually was able to get them hemmed at the very end of the SE Shorts party by Julian as they were on the top of the pile in back to be done. Lucky me! Anyhow, I gave them a soak after to getting the roping in order. I am wearing them around the house while I work to try to let them settle…

                              Just washed, hang dried, and then tumbled dried this thing to get that "fresh out of the bag" look gone. Now it's folded and ready for NY Heat…

                                    peterrock1 what pants are you wearing in the pic with the grey mechanic shirt??  The grey mechanic shirt is bad ass!! I picked up the grey XL non print…..  I like the printed just as much... if there is any left might have to get one of them also.

                                        I would PM G or Shoque to find out if it completely up to date but I would assume it is. I would also agree with you on the Black as I ended up getting the NP Black - XL. Also on a side note, SESF is out of all XL's. You could also call SENY as their stock is not listed online but I think G should have one or two…

                                          TinMan.  Is up to date (unless Shoque has sold or stolen any whilst I have been away).  Drop him a PM to treble check…G
