        Has anybody experienced any significant stretch in the cuff and forearms on these? I'm no popeye and they're pretty tight, impossible to pull up. Which is a good feature when wiping your arse, for instance haha..

          Yep, mine loosened up a bit. Not a lot, but enough so it's comfortable.

                        Currently wearing a M for the IHPT-04, but looking at the M for this: overall sizing looks spot on EXCEPT–> the chest measurements appear to line up with my actual chest measurements (as taken directly off my body). Would this be a sign to size up? Anyone who owns one of these have a similar story?

                          I wear L in the IHPT04 and XL in this. Had the L too once, but had to sell because of the tight Body and narrow arms. If you are super muscular, you might not fit in this.

                            Mine are actually slightly smaller than my "actual" chest measurement. The fit is snug but not restrictive and just the way I like it to fit.
                            I have a med also in the pocket t and it's too big.

                              Many thanks Max Power and Mahlon321. I just measured one of my best fitting shirts that I had neglected to measure and it also had a chest of 19.5’’ so I went ahead and ordered the medium. I am looking for a snug shirt to wear under a collared shirt/sweatshirt/jacket so I doubt I could do the large for length anyway. This is going to be a seriously well fitting shirt/100% perfect if my calculations are correct. Will post pictures + thoughts on sizing + review when it arrives.
                              Cheers 🙂

                                The IHTB-01 has landed! 😘

                                IHTB-01 Review:

                                Fabric:
                                First off, it’s a super beefy 10oz fabric with two-ply yarns and a snug weave. My initial thoughts are that this shirt is very bright and shiny. The sheen and use of color is so great. Taking it out of the wrapping it feels incredibly heavy, firm, rough, and hairy. At first it almost reminded me on an old hemp sweatshirt that I had, but upon a closer feel it seems to have a silky softness of super fine quality cotton despite its initial rough texture. The result is a shirt that feels and looks rugged, but is still quite comfortable (plus everything IH gets softer with wear). There is also a bit of stretch in the fabric and it seems to breathe reasonably well, though it is obviously best suited for colder weather.

                                Fit:
                                In a word: perfect. It has to be the most flattering shirt I own. In fact, everyone I’ve seen on this forum wearing one looks great in this shirt. The arms are long and fitted, the collar fits snugly around the base of the neck, the shoulders seams line up perfectly with my shoulders, the length/width of the body is spot on, and the ribbed cuffs perfectly hug my wrists with just the right amount of tension. Thanks again to @Max Power and @mahlon321 who's input was of vital importance in helping me understand the sizing.

                                Construction:
                                As usual, there are no weak points or neglected details; IH has delivered a rock solid piece of clothing yet again. Perhaps the biggest question I had about the construction was how such a heavy piece of knitwear could be sewn together comfortably: The heavy/soft black poly stitching is wrapped around the seams on the inside making it lay relatively flat thus reducing abrasion. I do notice the seams when wearing the shirt, but they are not uncomfortable. Another thing is all the stripes line up perfectly: the stripes from the body all line up with each other, the stripes on the sleeves all line up with each other and the stripes on the sleeves and the body all line up with each other which is seriously cool. I can’t even imagine how difficult that must have been to do from drawing up the patterns to sewing it all together because if even a single line would have been off at any point of the process it would have thrown off the construction of entire shirt. So really great job.

                                Overall I give the IHTB-01 a thumbs up:

                                        It has cooled off a bit so I can bring this beauty back into the rotation, pretty happy about that. 🙂
