    I typically take a Medium in IH and get a good fit, but with a pretty fitted shoulder. (eg the IHSH-91)
    I own a Gitman Vintage Oxford, also a Medium, but with a bit more room in the shoulder (maybe 0.5") and possibly in the chest too. It's also definitely an inch or so longer.

      Hey @Broark !

      I wear a lot of GBV button-downs for work, all in a size medium. I pretty much size medium on all of my IHSH as well (although I do have one TWSH in small), and they fit well, albeit a little less slim fitting than my office attire. I'd confidently advise you to go TTS, if personal experience is any indication. But I think like you said, measurements are probably your best indicator, as IHSH tend to have different measurements across the same size in different styles.

        Not sure how I missed that but I added XL to my post above.  XL in the Appaloosa.  @Broark

          Thanks for the feedback guys, seems like I'm somewhere between XL and XXL.
          Weirdly enough I'm an L in the recent IH tees, but they stretch a good bit.
          Now just waiting for one to be released that I really love!

            Some of the IH t's do come up big. Im typically a 42 chest in most things, had two xls and one l in a IH t's and one of the xl's was enormous! The best thing you can do is measure your best fitting Gitman shirt and do a comparison to the IH measurements. If you're on the broader side (as i am), then compare it to a work shirt which is a more generous cut.

              Is it common practice for chippies in the UK to include guacamole with an order or F&C?

                  P.S, I hope you have used liberal amounts of salt and vinegar on them.

                  P.P.S, get over to FnC this year so you can have some REAL fish and chips….Gile's local chippy is surprisingly very good.

                      I used so much salt and vinegar I look like I rubbed an Amazonian tribe the wrong way. 😃 my first mushy peas, love them.

                          Good on you, we can go to the chippy, then the pub, drink far too much, have an argument about footy which results in a night in the cells and then you will be truly inducted as an Englishman  😉

                            Incidentally, watching football whilst drinking and eating this stuff.

                                Question for American folks, who makes the footwear for the retailer Steven Alan? There stuff is made in the USA and I see that they have a relationship with both Alden and Thorogood, does anyone know if it's either of them?

                                    Is there a large "Safety Rugby" match occurring in the colonies this evening?

                                      I don't think so.  Today is National Baked Alaska Day, which is traditionally a quiet day of rest and introspection.

                                          Well, I unfortunately have had a incident with my favorite moccs that has left me short a casual shoe. Was looking at possibly picking up some birkies, notably the Alabama, but have no idea on sizing, or general experience with the brand. Given that there are a few fans here, looking for any help or relative input
