      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.

          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…..

            What retailers are getting them?

            VMC are getting the charcoal - that's it.

            What is VMC?

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

                    @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.

                    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                    Well, I have others.

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

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

                            Thanks, @Giles.  I was lucky enough to snag a small in grey.  Just looking out for us little guys.

                              Look similar weight to some of my Filson westerns from over the last few years. I have a 100% virgin western that I can wear year around and be comfortable. I'd be picking one up if I hadn't just bought a jacket from our local Philly guy. Shucks, they look utterly fantastic!

                                    Blue bag came in yesterday.  The weight is very nice….  Feels pretty close to what a 7 OZ. spring flannel weighs, but with much more breathability.  For wool it's almost airy.  The hand is also quite nice.  Compared to many other wool shirts I have felt this one, for lack of a better word, is very 'tolderable'.  For all those sensitive to wool I noticed zero contact around the collar due to the lining so the only real place you would have a lot of contact is in the sleeves if you wore a t-shirt underneath (a long sleeve shirt would altogether eliminate contact).  All in all another amazingly well done shirt by IH that no one on the fence should sleep on.

                                      I got mine too.  Absolutely love it.  I would definitely say warmer than a spring flannel though.  That's just my impression.  I did size up, though I could have gone either way.  I would buy the other colors if I could.  Don't sleep, gentlemen.  This is a particularly amazing shirt.

                                            Mate, you're so right.

                                            (It's here now, it fits, and it's bloody lovely).
