Hey G do you run the same long staple cotton in the sweat as is used in the jeans?
thanks
Love the new green color BTW…

[Giles]

I suspect not, it may be longer than normal because of the heft of the fabric, but cotton for a sweat has very different requirements than a cotton for denim…

[4c]

Thanks G,
Quick rephrase: are they soft as hell, durable as rock, not prone to excessive pilling, get softer with wear rather than breaking down, and hold dye better than death?
If so, they be long staple cotton.

[Giles]

Quick answer.  Yes

Thanks for the help G.
I have decided to buy one of these wonderful sweatshirts. The only question I have before I buy is:
Will you be bringing back the red one? If so I may wait till you get one in otherwise I’ll happily go for one of the other colors (I think green).

[Giles]

No reds of the horizon…..

[4c]

Shame about that red, but other colors also look great.

Now for the sizing… Totally new to IH sizing… new customer.

I am relatively thin and have really super long arms. I have a sweatshirt with 25’’ arms that seem a little too short and a sweat with arms that are like 26.5 that seem about perfect. I usually fit like a medium body, but with large arms, so I’d say I’m usually M-L. I usually just go for a 42 chest.  However, when going over the measurements the XL IH sweat it seems smaller (shorter/narrower) than even some of the size large sweatshirts I have… is that possible?

I don’t mind if the sweat is a little loose, I’d much rather have a slightly less fitted sweat that a tight one.
All that said what do you good people think? Could I be an extra large?
