      Will there be anymore XLs?  If so I would like to get on the list!  😉

                Well.  Out of the workshops means just that.  They then have to get to Hachioji for Haraki and the crew to second QC.  Then they have to do a count, apportion, pack and ship.

                So short answer…..No....G

                    I've read through people's sizing observations in the 08 thread, but owing to different body types/shapes/sizes/etc. it doesn't seem like any fast conclusions were reached, as is with any clothing.

                    I have this in my stack, in size XL.  I'm almost certainly an L in most every IH top, perhaps excluding the 08.  The shoulders for the L IHSH-08 are 17.3" which is right at my smaller limit (approx. 18.5 is dead on) and so I'm wondering if the slimness due to high armholes.  Is this accurate?  If so, I'd rather order the L first and exchange if needed.  It's getting to crunch time and I want to be as sure as possible to avoid costly trans-oceanic frieght costs, both for myself and IHUK!  Yes, this is a request for hand holding… 😛 😉

                      If you wanna wear something underneath the 08, or just want to be able to breath, I'd go with an XL…

                      E: you also shouldn't be thinking about the shoulders too much, but more about the chest measurement...

                        Former swimmer here, so my chest/shoulder comparison is slightly uncommon.  Any reason the chest measurement is something to lookout for?  Does the construction tend to pull the fabric towards the sides, making it hard to button up?  Certainly wanna leave the corsets to the IH women!

                        I would like to layer (hoodie) some.  The layering is probably my biggest concern with ordering an L. It seems like some folks accomplish this and went TTS.

                          Go with an XL. If that doesn't fit, feel free to swim across the ocean to come kick my arse.

                          E: I'm a size Small in the IHSH-22 and therefore in most IH shirt, but have contemplated buying a size L in the 08… The M fits perfectly, albeit very tight... Tighter than other sized S shirts...

                                Dude, I have a swimmers shoulders/chest too and I sized up on the IHSH-08, and glad I did. I would reco the XL for you too. The shirt is brutal, you will be glad of a little wriggle room (Seul's just a masochist).

                                You can kick my arse too if I'm wrong - its all Europe right…

                                  It's true - I love this shirt being as fucking tight as a second skin… But when I hear of youw anting to layer with a HOODY... Oh dear iceskating Lord: size up lad!..

                                    My advice for what it's worth.

                                    If you want to get your pint of your beer to your lips. go one size up.

                                    Honest.

                                        I would stay stick to you normal IH size.  I am a medium in all IH shirts and a medium in this one also.  It fits most similar to the 07, just a bit slimmer in the chest and bit stiffer.  Note that the 22 is larger than most other shirts.

                                        I don't believe this shirt is designed for layering.  It's got a slim cut for a reason.  And if you really do want to layer you could wear it unbuttoned.  I would recommend the IHW-01 if you want to layer (although the cuffs on that are a bit small to stuff a sweatshirt under it).

                                            And for what it is worth from me, my IHSH-08 is a XL and I am going with an XL in this as well. XL is my TTS for IH and that is how I will continue to size. I have somewhat of a layering fetish as you all may already be aware of and this item does not infringe upon this. It all depends on what you are trying to put under it. I can wear any of my AA hoodies, vintage hoodies, and both of my IH hoodies underneath it. Just my two pennies. Do with it what you will…
