      @QuantumMechanic:

      Hey everyone, just got this and am thinking it is a tad big all over. My wife thinks it's fine, but she's being sweet knowing how much I like this shirt 🙂

      Thoughts? Will a hot wash bring it down a size or so?

      Cheers

      I thought the IHSH-170 measurements were perfect on the site.  Once I got it, I really felt like it was too big everywhere except the shoulders for me.  I immediately hot washed it and threw it in the dryer.  Now it fits perfect and a medium like always was the right size.  Hope this helps.  The hot wash and dryer did nothing to the fabric (except shrink it). I have a piece of crap top loader and even worse dryer.  Never had an issue with washing IH flannels.  If I want shrinkage, I hot wash and dryer…

        So messed that last post up.  Tried to quote with out duplicating your pics.  Anyhow @QuantumMechanic I think you might find luck with a hot wash and dryer.  It has worked for me on more than one occasion with IH flannels…

          Thanks for the feedback guy's. I'm still leaning towards a hot wash and maybe the drier versus sending it back to Self Edge, but we'll see.

            We now have a few extra shirts from a cancelled retailer order (well, he was not playing the game, so Giles cancelled him).  I am trying to check with all the people who contacted us after missing out when the shirt initially went live.

            In the meantime, we definitely have sizes S, L and XXL spare - let me know if you want one of these.

                @Madame Buttonfly  I'm interested in a size L 🙂

                Having no destination, I’m never lost.

                  I went with the large and was afraid it would be a little big, but it's actually snug around the shoulders.

                    Looks great RP. Mine is a tiny bit snug in the shoulder too, but I'm very happy with the fit.

                            @Anesthetist I'm happy you were able to snag one. 🙂 Your daughter is adorable. It gets quite soft after a couple days wear. Super duper awesome.

                                  Thanks Filthy! I was surprised to see it felt like a Filson twill at first. I imagine it will only get better and better. Amelia is quite the cutie….and she knows it!

                                            Echo everything that has been said about this fabric (and the buttons too). I'm glad I went with XL. The shoulders and sleeves are perfect for me. I may try to get a little shrinkage out of it but if I can't no big deal. Body is wider and little long but that is a typical work shirt fit for me. Here is a quick pic (size XL):
