IHSH-32 Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt

Anyone give this a wash yet?  Shrinkage expected?  I've been beating the crap out of my black one so it's coming due.

[Omega Man]

Looking at SE website, it says "0.5 inches everywhere", so shrinkage is minimal.  When in doubt, cold/hand wash.

[DrPat]

My didn't shrink at all when washed at 30deg.

In regards to shrinking, it doesn't matter if you hand or machine wash.  It's the water temperature and drying temperature that's important.

I sometimes will use my washer on the spin cycle to get rid of some of the water out of my IH stuff so it'll dry faster, and I notice a little more shrinking than if I just let it drip

I suspect this has to do with the weight of the wet fabric stretching itself out on a hanger as it dries

Advice please. I'd love to buy a black one of these (if/when available). I'm 5'7", have a 37" chest and am 18" s2s. Am I a size S (my usual size) or a M in this shirt?

hi Shanks - i would say def go with S.have you checked your sleeve length?

[Shanks59]

Off the top of my head, I'm 23.5"

[SepticSef]

i would say you`d be spot on in S then but ask giles to be 100% ::)

Depends a bit on how you want to wear it. I'm not much bigger than you, I tried both an M and L and went with the L. The M fit me like a proper shirt but would be too small for layering. The L works perfect. The sleeves are long but often cuffed anyway, and it'll shrink just a little when (after a long, long time) it gets washed.

If you want a shirt, you may be safe with an S. If you want an overshirt, I'd recommend an M.

(And I just returned a black M, so there you go.)

i`m so pale i am almost see-through and i can wear the red just fine so i bet you could wear red easily

[Beatle]

Oh yes, that's my tongue..must have been about 10 tons of snow up there…

[Geo]

just don't be lickin' the yellow snow

but the red is awesome - love as much as my black . . . think they're both classics

[Omega Man]

I was lucky enough to be able to get the red one as well.  Loving it, truly a classic.

hey guys, looking for some sizing feedback. here's my fit on the ihsh32. It's a medium.
SelfEdge has one small left, wondering if I should pull the trigger and see which fit I like better…but that also seems like a pain..so I'm wondering what you all think.

Thanks!

p.s. I'm only half smiling cause I went to the Ducks game tonight and they won 6-0...don't get used to it

I am pretty sure you could fit a small, but the m fits you really well that I think it's not worth the trouble..nice jawns, btw…

[jbphoto23]

I was hesitant on this one, but really glad* I picked it up.

[riffblaster general]

stick with the m.
