IHSH-163 - Wool Work Shirt - Grey, Charcoal and Olive

[Shoreman]

Can anyone speak to how this shirt feels against the skin? (i.e. "the hand.")

[Winchy]

I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't quite as itchy as I thought it might have been, that said I was glad of the twill lining on the collar. In general it's very soft and comfy to wear straightaway.

[Shoreman]

Yeah, in and around the neck area is where I would be irritated the most. Thank you, Winchy!

Giles, would you opt for an XL in this shirt? ( I don't know why I'm asking, I'm almost certain the answer is "yes.")

Olive for me, also excited. But I've ordered by measurements and not by what Sam and Giles wears which now has me a quite nervous as well as excited. They sized up from normal and I haven't [emoji51]

Can only speak for the old melton wool shirts, but IH wool shirts are amazing!!!

[UnTucked]

Is there a weight listed anywhere for these?

@Winchy  did you get to try one on? If so, what size worked best?

[BloodnThunder]

Grey incoming!  I think this is going to be one of those sleeper pieces that can't be appreciated until it has some good wear in it.

How heavy is the wool and woven? Would be a great outer shirt if heavy enough. Right now I can't afford anything, bills and more bills due soon. Shall see if still around in a month or two time frame.

[Giles]

It's nowhere near as heavy as one of the old Meltons.  I am not in UK, so can't estimate weight myself, I have asked H to give me a guesstimation…..

@fifediesel:

What retailers are getting them?

VMC are getting the charcoal - that's it.

What is VMC?

[Giles]

A retailer, I was answering the question "What retailers are getting them"

[Appfaff]

A retailer in Europe. The XHS was made to celebrate their 25th anniversary I believe

Edit: whoops! Giles beat me to it haha

Also noticed there is size XS listed as an option in stock but no measurements when viewing the chart.

@Appfaff:

@neph93 - I think I will stick to dry cleaning when necessary. However my red Melton CPO did mark pretty easily, but a quick damp rag usually did the trick in terms of spot cleaning.

I agree. Washing machines and wool are a disaster. Perhaps 20% nylon is different but I wouldn't bet my shirt on it.

Bingo @JCMx800 !

Easily my most anticipated release! Looking forward to testing it out next week!

I've machine washed my melton a couple of times. No problem at all. Slight shrinkage though.

[Giles]

@BloodnThunder XS is a mistake.  We did not get any.  We can, but there are none here….....
