      I'd definitely vote to stick with the so-called 'short' sleeves. Longer sleeves always look a bit of a shocker. I feel for Patrick in the 131 fit pics, he looks swamped.

      On a side note, IH shirts could almost always handle a trim in length too, 'shorter' shirts always look far sharper than longer shirts - again Patrick's pics do the 131 no favours, and that's an XS. I know everyone has their own personal preference, but I'd say at least 90% of IH shirts are an inch longer than they should be!

        Patrick is tiny, even an XS is sometimes too large.

        And I would say that 90% of our shirts are too short…And I think that shirts that are too short look ridiculous.

        As @rocket  said one size does not fit all. That's just the way it is.

        We compromise the best we can.  It may be big hassle, but you can actually shorten length, it is impossible to lengthen…

            I think people tend to forget that IH is a brand that was dreamed up with riders in mind, that denim hipsters happened to fall in love with…..

            ^that's right. and to be honest I'm 6'3" so longer sleeves work.

              Anything that is cut prior to my updated instructions will have the longer arm length.  I know that this def means the purple and the green buffalos (as I saw them being sewn yesterday).  No idea what else will get through before I change things…..

              Have they already started on the redxblack of the 127s?  That's the one I'm looking to buy among the 127s.
