IHSH-62-IND - 12oz Wabash Western Shirt - Indigo

[mahlon321]

^ what they said!! I have both the 07 and 62. I love the 07. But the 62 is my first choice always! You will not be sorry
Good luck!

Aye. There is a chance I will end up with both in the end. But I still need to decide of what to pick up first.

Nice quote.

I think I have made up my mind. Next time I buy myself a pair of jeans I will get this shirt as well.
How is the shrinkage of this shirt after soak? 
Only got one IH shirt atm and it is the IHSH-76 in XL. It is a bit big over the shoulders but fits nicely in all other areas.
I am 187cm (6' 1.6"), 79kg (174lbs)
Wearing 666s in 33.
I think an L might do the trick. What do you think? 
I'll add a picture of my 76 just for comparison.

It looks to me like you could size down comfortably.  The Wabash is the "largest" of my IH shirts, and the 76 runs the "smallest" (all the same tag size).  Since the 76 seems roomy you could likely get away with sizing down on the 62.

I think you'd be a large in the shoulders, which will end up with the same sleeve length you've got there as a side effect. M might be pushing it too tight in the shoulders but will be perfect else where. If shoulders not too big, or okay with it a bit smaller M for sure.

I got to wear my recently acquired 62 out to support my future brother in law who was nominated as Austin's best bartman:

Inevitably, it seems, after falling in love with my new 634s and BB jeans, I'm considering a IH shirt. I'm debating between the Wabash Western and the Hickory Stripe work shirt. Anyone have both and would like to compare their merits? I'm a little uncertain on size as my measurements hover somewhere between a XXL & a XXXL. This is a bit surprising given that I wear XL in nearly every other shirt I own.

[Giles]

I'll chip in here.

I personally would go for the Wabash, I simply love the fabric and how it ages.

And time to get some sizing crap off my chest.  There is simply no such thing as a standard XL (or L or XXXL etc etc).  On average Americans are larger than Europeans are larger than Japanese (indeed all Asians).  An XL in any one of these countries reflects what is Extra Large for that populous.  This "no-standard" is further compounded by the western physique getting larger (and by that I really mean fatter) over time, so a todays L is a yesterdays XXL…

Thanks for the advice, Giles.

I certainly didn't mean anything by my question about sizing. And, yes, I'm a big guy and perhaps "fat" by some standards, but in reality am very athletic and aerobically very fit. I've completed a dozen marathons in the past 15 years, including the 2013 NYC Marathon. I do have a penchant for beer, which is my downfall.

Sounds like Asia needs more fast food chains. Come on Asians, fat is the new thin

And go with the wabash. Much cooler Evo on he wabash
