        I still can't measure but here are some pictures. You can really see the difference in the side and back shots (take a look at my butt).

          The shrinkage was significant, but I washed for 30 minutes at 90 celsius. Im very happy with the results.

          That is what I call efficient.
          Great result @DrBabyhorse

            That is excellent work! A great fit, man. Is this different denim from the last run?

              Thanks guys. As far as I can tell it's the same denim. Looks and feels exactly the same.

                Wow, that is a lot!  Probably a good call to make it longer overall with the newest release.  Do you feel the chest area got significantly smaller as well?

                  No, not a whole lot of difference in the chest. I'll post the measurements pre/post on Monday when I get a chance.

                    Any reason why I wouldn't have had a pocket card on my shirt when it arrived?

                        apologies for the n00b question

                        I'm usually a comfortable medium in IHSH, with the 85, should I be thinking large?

                          I would go L and if it is a little large, hot wash it…..

                            Ordered yesterday and now waiting. I hate waiting. Based on the quality posts from @neph93 and @DrBabyhorse i've gone TTS on this one. Compared to the measurements on my IHSH-127 this should make a fine snuggy fit (post soak), i'm not a real big fan of layering to much… Did i mention i hate waiting? 😃

                            When my time comes I want to be buried face down. That way whoever doesn’t like me can kiss my ass.

                                      Glad you appreciated the post @illo59. That was my first IH shirt (I now own far too many…) and everything I've bought subsequently has been XL with the exception of quilted shackets. In the main everything has fitted great, the exception being a western UHF that fits snugly now but will not tolerate a decent wash.

                                      I still wear my 85 all the time. It's loose enough to wear open over a tee and a vest, fits nicely over a henley or sweater and works nicely over just a tee for a relaxed look.

                                      Just remember, if you want, you only need wash it on 30C without  tumble and it won't shrink at all. 60C with tumble dry will shrink it nicely, so you're in control. I look forward to fit pics!

                                        hey @neph93 - glad i found a forum like this, great community and it's cool to read about sizing, fitting and how the stuff will act with constant wear. just discovered IH for me and i think my closet will get some nice upgrades within the next year 😃 😃 😃

                                        i'll post fit pics as soon as black beauty arrives - and yes! the plan is to only give it gentle washes. i never tumble dry anything, i'm to scared it will ruin my gear. too unpredictable for me…

                                          Johnny Cash in the house! Fits pretty nice  everywhere but could be a little bit shorter… will only wash it gently and at low temperature to avoid much shrinkage but hope it will get a little bit shorter and/or the hem rolling up with wear.

                                          This shirt is a beauty, wore it today and decided to love this thing!
