      @Giles:

      this is what I have written for the "Fabric" tab….

      • 100% cotton 14W corduroy - 14 wales/inch - a wale is a ridge (same wale count as most vintage Levi's corduroy pants were made from)
      • Firstly the woven corduroy is dyed grey and then dipped in indigo
      • The indigo dipping shrinks the fabric, tightens it up and makes it very tough
      • There will be a lot of indigo loss when washed, please wash on its own

      Corduroy Indigo Loss Shirt fade to Grey!…. Marvellous.

      Comparison to the needlecord - 31 ridges per inch of the 50 and 73, G?

          I counted the needlecord on my 73 as 23W

                  Sam wears L (normally wears an M)

                  Giles wears XL (normally wears an L), so these fit small.  Please take that into account when ordering.

                    Interesting, the size chart doesn't look like they came up too small?
                    XXL measurements look like around what I normally expect from IH shirts.

                        I was thinking the XL looks like what I normally expect from an xxl. Mainly in the shoulders and p2p.

                          Yeah I guess that's what I meant, that they didn't look very small.
                          More along the lines of the IHSH-129 measurements.

                            Based on the measurements I got an xl (which for IH means I sized down). I hope that works out.

                              Yeah I'm a little nervous ordering now.
                              Wonder if the thickness of the fabric makes the shirt feel tighter.

                                I thought the same thing, but I don't think it is too thick since it can be pimped. I'm a little nervous now.  😕

                                  Using the compare feature online (awesome, by the way) I looked at this next to the other two IH westerns I have.
                                  The 129 and 137, both shirts that I have measure more closely to the XXL in this shirt.
                                  So my gut tells me go with the XXL instead of the XXXL.

                                    Ordered both a XXL and a XXXL to make damn sure that I find the right fit.

                                    $35 is a fair price to pay for peace of mind.

                                    Y'all gonna make me scream like a white lady.

                                      Think I'm going to pull the trigger on the XXL and hope that it works.
                                      Maybe the XXXL won't sell out by the time I get it in.
                                      Any retailers getting this one? Mainly SE since I'm stateside.

                                        And the size up is now sold out so I went with the XXL.
                                        Fingers crossed it works!  😛

                                            Going to have to wait until SENY gets them,unless one of the XXLs comes back to you. They went quick.
