IHSH-135 - US Navy Style Chambray Short-Sleeved Shirt

[Giles]

Run a sizing compare…..

[Seul]

I did… But there aren't many s/s shirts, plus I haven't ever bougth one... Just curious if this has the shorter, slimmer sleeves y'all discussed last year... I think the new chambray shirts come with it?.. Or no?..

(So many questions...)

[Giles]

I don't think they are much slimmer - anyone?

G is right!

Enjoy ya addiction!

Thanks.

Nope, I was able to take a small instead of my typical medium. I wouldn't say it's slimmer at all

I rock this with a single cuff on the sleeves and this one looks great on me even with my skinny arms.

Anyone with a Medium or Large have a P2P measurement after hot laundering? Both Mediums sold while I was waiting for measurements; I remain curious if I could have squeezed into one.

I'm not a short-sleeve-collared-shirt kind of guy, but this is just gorgeous…

[Giles]

If you really want something, don't wait for measurements, buy the thing and put a note in the comments field that you need a specific size, if we can't get you sorted, we'll refund you…..

[Chaintitch]

I know, I know…    but I was 98% sure I needed one of those Larges that kept appearing and disappearing, on account of the shrinkage left in them.

Please message me if you have a Large (or perhaps Medium) that you might like to part with.

It's finally warm enough to wear this shirt again. I forgot how much of a beautiful fabric and fit this shirt is. I also forgot how easily the buttons slide through the openings. I was thinking of possibly stitching them so they are slightly tighter but does anyone have any recommendations on keeping the buttons tighter or making the holes smaller?

[Giles]

Add a couple of small stitches to the opening to slightly reduce the length of the hole….

After:

Thanks @Giles  I figured that's what I'd be doing. Do you know what color the stitches are done in? Get as close as I can to it.

[Jordonf9]

Did the holes last night, took a little by hand, but happy the shirt don't randomly come open now. Lucky we had thread to match the OE thread.

[Giles]

Nice job….

[Dishelveled]

Special fabric…

[Jordonf9]

This is the only chambray shirt I ever had. It is just a lovely shirt and fabric like @Dishelveled said. I love the blue bottoms over the white ones on the 5.5 that's out now.

Be killer to have this fabric but with double indigo for intense fades, and 5oz or lighter. That be my 2nd chambray haha.

Love the fuzzyness and slubness of the face too

[Dishelveled]

Agreed @Jordonf9 that the tonal blue buttons are the way to go vs white.

It's tough to capture the texture and depth of color but here is the (newish) 135 vs (worn) 13 for comparison

@Dishelveled

How is your medium coming up, measurement-wise? And have you washed to get the shrinkage out?

Based on what was posted in the thread regarding the in-house shrinkage on a large, I was confused if the posted measurements on the product page were actual, or expected after a wash. (22.7" chest…)

Product page measurements are always actual.
