    Thanks, Appfaff.  I'll be sure to get some pre-soak and post-soak measurements of the shirt.  I plan to soak either tomorrow or this weekend.

      Tried my hand at photographing the Midnight Appaloosa in comparison with my lot A Appaloosa and IHSH-136.
      First off it's not an easy shirt to photograph since the external stitching is all tonal, and the digital camera I'm using is pretty damn old…
      My only very minor complaint about this shirt is that compared to the lot A version that I have this doesn't have the exposed selvedge along the front placket. I really like that detail as it was something no one saw, but I knew was there. Not a big deal, just a small thing I noticed. I guess it would make sense on this tonal version not to have it exposed, as it would really pop and be very bold.
      But here's what I came up with, it's much darker than my IHSH-136 and lot A Appaloosa at this point because I've washed both pretty regularly. I used some post processing just to get more definition out of the photos.
      I need a new camera.  😠

      Next to the lot A:




      And here's some measurements, I think I'm going to give it another trip thought the wash right now because I noticed some weird spots along the front.
      Shoulders: 20 in.
      Chest: 24 in.
      Length: 31 in.
      Sleeves:26 in.

        Digging the Midnight Appaloosa, thanks Kiya and Self Edge. It is gonna be a great piece with some wear.
        It is very stiff, and a bit bigger than the Lot A. I'm guessing with an appropriate soak sizing will be as expected.

          @BloodnThunder - measurements are always appreciated dude!  Thanks for taking the time!

          @Broark - thanks for the measures of the XXL - and GREAT pics!  I think your camera skills are really good, actually! Thanks for the comparison shots - love how different every version of MFSC "midnight" fabric is.

          @ShootThePier - did you go with a L or XL?

              @Appfaff thanks for the kind words, that digital camera I was using is maybe 8 to 10 years old I think? It doesn't really handle big contrasts between foreground and background well. Maybe I can convince my parents to let me borrow their DSLR that they doesn't use too much whenever they move back to the states. 😛

                      Cold soaked my midnight appaloosa last night (size small).  Just a standard machine wash but pulled it out pre-spin and let it drip dry.

                      I imagine you could get a lot more shrink with a hot wash and if you threw it in the dryer.  I didn't measure the neck but it feels marginally more snug (probably less than 0.25")

                      Pre-soak
                      Chest: 20.25"
                      Arm: 24"
                      Shoulder: 17.25"
                      Back: 27.25"

                      Post soak:
                      Chest:  19.75"
                      Arm: 24" Maybe lost 1/8"
                      Shoulder: 17"
                      Back: 27.25"

                        And, these just happened. I got on the waiting list months ago, luckily.

                                    I think Rivet & Hyde has the pique version. It's not for everyone but I like it [emoji106]

                                          Strange, nobody here is talking about the 10yr Anniversary 30% off sale…. I just grabbed an Olive Garrison Shirt for $230
