IHSH-21-BLU - 10oz Selvedge Chambray Work Shirt - Blue

Might be time for elbow patches or a short sleeve 21…..chopping a long sleeve results in a smaller arm opening than a spec made short sleeve......how do you wear out elbows 

[madmonday]

sleeve wear

front of shirt wear

figure everybody kind of neglect the classics & don't really post in the older threads so I'll do it

People!

I'm looking hard at this shirt, but I'm confused about sizing. The other Chambray w/shirts I own (118 and 119 in XL) fit great, but this is obviously cut differently as demonstrated when I use the "Compare" function (btw, how did I ever survive without that?).

This seems to come up longer and wider in the body. In fact with the exception of the shoulders it looks like I could do a Large in this comfortably. That would be a first for me as I'm generally XL-XXL in most IH. So the question is has anyone experience with sizing down?

I would go with your regular XL…that way you could wash and dry or...My first one is a medium, my  usual size, always thought it was a bit tight so I bought lrg. My 2 cents.

I was in the exact same boat as you with this shirt.  It also sounds like we are very close in size as I am also an XL-XXL in most IH shirts.  So I first ordered an XL in this shirt and the upper body and sleeves fit great but the body is baggy.  I then ordered a large and it fit but was just a bit too snug and too short for my liking.  I ended up selling the Large and I still have the XL but haven't worn it much because of the width of the body. It's fairly blousy.

FWIW I'm a 33"-34" actual waist (depending on the time of year).  If my XL was just narrower in the body by an inch or so it would be a good fit but still maybe a tad long…which doesn't really bother me though.

Hope that helps.

Thank you for the kind words, glad I could help.

With all that being said it's a great shirt and the "Chambray work shirt of all Chambray work shirts" IMO.

My Fit, XL.

[Finshack]

Just got mine, have to say it's what I've been after for a good while, perfect detailing and construction… one question, it's borderline neat on the sizing, will it shrink? Any experience most gratefully accepted…

@Finshack

It is already one-washed so with careful soaking/washing you should be fine. I never got any shrinkage from mine.

[Finshack]

@Winchy Grand thanks, never been XXL before!  ???

[Signal11]

Minor thing but in shop measurements sleeve opening should be sleeve

good point…

[Giles]

Fixed and thanks….

Whilst dancing to Julio Bashmore the other weekend in my IHSH-21-ind some random bloke said 'I bloody love your shirt'… beware they be awesome.

[neph93]

That's a testament to quality if ever I read one [emoji1][emoji1417]
