IHTL-1700 - Extra Heavy Cotton Knit Crew Neck Thermal Sweater

[manufc10]

Very nice.  They seem to have sewn up small though.  Think I would be an XXL in this one as opposed to my usual XL

[Giles]

Yep, I sized up to XL…

@Giles your proof reading super hero here, at your service (whether you like it or not  ) The opening on the XL seems a tad on the large size, I suspect someone nine'ed when they should have zero'ed.

EDIT: By the way these look spectacular. I'm pleased you have a few and I hope at least one XL hangs around a little longer

Bugger - thanks…..

Always a pleasure, never a chore (as my headmaster used to say while preparing to do harm with a sturdy piece of bamboo…).

Do you think this fabric is as stretchy as the one from IHTL-1213/1301?

[organisys]

Intriguing piece,    but too small for me. 

[Manticore]

Looks great! If the XXL had another inch or more in the shoulders it would be a perfect fit.

@Dion - no I don't think it is, it obviously has a fair amount of stretch but doesn't move/give as easily as the 1213/1301 fabric.  I didn't try one on, @Sam did so let's see if he agrees.

[Sam]

@Dion Yeah i agree. That's one of the first things i said to Giles. Because it's a heavier knit it seems like it'll hold its shape.

Thank you, Madame Buttonfly and Sam!

Making me want it more.

[Seul]

Me too - I'd wear it as a sweater…

I am definitely going to pick up one of these as soon as I can.

THIS THING IS AWESOME.  I got mine yesterday…. couldn't believe how heavy it was.  Makes the last batch of IH thermals look like tshirts.  This one is going to get a ton of use.  If you like to wear thermal shirts don't sleep on this.  It'll be a staple.

This one is going to get a ton of abuse.

I would jump all over this but I've already got two black IH thermals and one black 1501 so I don't see a need for another black thermal/sweatshirt.  I think I know the answer to this already…. ;)... but I'll ask anyways, is the 1700 different enough from the "regular" IH thermals and 1501 to justify another black cut and sewn item my closet?

I don't have the above issue so I'll pulled the trigger on one of these and it should be here this week. Super excited and hope the weather stays cool enough for the next few weeks to get some wear on it! Really excited about getting my first non-button-up from IH.

it's totally different.  i also own the other thermals.  this one is way more substantial and feels way more tough.  I feel like overall it's going to hold it's shape better than the others as well.
