        Same here.

        This shirt has come out of complete left field for me - that olive is seriously nice.

          Might we see this fabric used for other items? Or is this a limited-run fabric?

            How do you feel about the prospect of trying this pocket on a flannel, Giles? Sounds great to me.

              Always a possibility…..

                      @Giles - this shirt is amazing and fits me perfectly. How do you think this fabric will evolve by time? Fading or not?

                        @HHPI did you have so size up on this one or did you go with your usual size?

                          I usually wear XL in Western Shirts. This one is XL as well. Fits perfectly. I actually appreciate that it's a bit more fitted (not constricting though) - so it's easier to wear under CPOs.

                            Unbelievable fabric. I just gave it a soak (not that I have to, but I always do with new stuff). When wet the fabric becomes super slick to the touch. You don't feel any texture at all. Like an oil film on polished marble. Crazy stuff.

                              It is reactive dyed, so little or no fading…..

                                Does this fabric feel itchy? I suppose not but had to ask 🙂

                                Having no destination, I’m never lost.

                                      What's the fabric weight on the IHSH-160? - looking for a shirt I can wear all year round (in the UK) - well ok I might be forced into a polo shirt at about 26C!

                                        I'd guess about 6oz, but weight is only part of the story, breathability is also part of the equation and this one don't breathe…

                                            Tried on this tough cookie today. It is nearly airtight…don't let small children play with it. Breathability ratings do not apply to this beauty. Fabric felt very smooth and soft. I think this picture captures the olive tone quite accurately.

                                            Haven't seen pictures of it in the thread so here it goes.

                                            The metal buttons are something else. Tried to get a picture but I couldn't get my Iphone to avoid gross overexposure of them against the olive background of the shirt. The buttons came up white every time and masked the nice aluminum color and texture.

                                            I went TTS on it and am happy with the fit.

                                            The journey is the objective.
