      I just washed mine on cold and have no discernible shrinkage. Hot water might be different.

        My IHSH-141 shrank significantly after a hot soak and some time in the dryer. Almost sold it because it was too big, now it fits like a glove. The IH page states, "The overdying process removes all shrinkage, so no shrinkage to be expected"

          ^^I have six IH overdyed products, including an ihsh-141, and none of them have shrunk, ever. Something must be off

          As for the ihsh-140:
          @adam313:

          -I hot soaked mine (with agitation). Air dried in 20 minutes in the sun, and got ~.3-.4" shrinkage in the back length. Not much shrinkage.

            Yeah, I have a few too, but this shrank. Loving the fit now…hope it doesn't stretch too much.

              I am very surprised that there was any shrink.  The overdying process usually shrinks the bejeebers out of any fabric it sees….

                    I gave my 140 a hot wash then threw it in the dryer. Got a tiny bit of shrink. Seems to fit me nicely as an overshirt, though the ams are a tad long. This turned out to feel heavier than I thought it would.

                      Sorry for the crappy pics. How's this fit looking? This is over a thin flannel.

                        Looks too big, imo.

                          I have to agree with sabergirl. I'd flip it and size down one.

                                      The fabric only improves with wear. It's so soft and comfortable in any weather. It changes tone depending on the lighting too, which is nice…

                                            @adam313 I think it was this shot that sold me on the shirt. Thanks.

                                            I wanted the indigo Wabash and I actually tried to order it once. But the order never went through. I was gonna get one or the other. This was my tipping point, and I asked my favorite bar tender if she liked it and she said yes. There was no turning back.
