Absolutely.  Just wanting to try and get accurate with what I order.  I will, of course, over order…..........

I suspect this will be an excellent hoodie.  Giles, was any thought given to using a 2way zip?

None whatsoever - not that I discounted it, just did not occur.  Maybe for Mk II

[premo]

I assume payment information will be posted once the time comes?

[Giles]

I will create a page on the website, yes…..........

@Beatle:

I have washed mine several times - no shrinkage…

Thanks. Will hone down my measurements before I vote.

Newbie question: Does voting and/or stating in the thread "size XYZ for me" actually get one saved for me to purchase when they arrive?

(Asked with full understanding that a "save me one" statement should equal a full commitment to follow through with purchase once they arrive in stock.)

[cowsareforeating]

its for giles to estimate how much of what to buy – it doesn't guarantee one nor does it bind you to a commitment.

[hectic]

cowsareforeating is correct, voting does not constitute a reserved item, nor does it mean you are irrevocably committed.

[zhivago]

These look dope, I'm thinking an xl will work for me. In most IH shirts a xxl is perfect for me but if I am understanding the sizing chart correctly I think the xl would work.  Any input from other xxl's out there would be great. Thanks

[hectic]

I'm in the same boat as you zhivago. How tall are you? Becuase it is this dimension that will be crtitical I think for us XXLs.

[Peter]

Nice lookin hoodie! Thinking the print might be a bit too big, but I'll probably end up getting one anyway. A bit torn on the sizing though, whether to get an XS or an S. I'm usually a size S and these seem oversized in the smaller sizes. An S will probably do fine though, cuz of the heavy material and the 6 cm difference in arm length.

[zhivago]

Thanks hectic, I am 6'1" and I was weary on the length overall. as well as sleeve length.  I'm guessing a xxl would be perfect but from what I am gathering xxl is not happening, at least on the first run, correct? Perhaps if a second run is done…G?

[hectic]

Well, I'm 6'4" so it could be a bust with the XL, still worth a try though (I guess if you are not in the UK it would be more annoying for you). I will report back as and when.

A second run with a pull-over variant would be cool….

[zhivago]

I dig the zips but hey that's just me, pull over could be cool too.  Clearly an xxl is needed IMO.

Understand, and it makes sense, that voting in the poll is to get an idea of the number of various sized pieces to order.

But then why would people feel inclined to also reply in the thread with what size they voted for?

I ask because, if possible, I would like to get one reserved, once I figure out what size I want. These are obviously going to sell well.

[hectic]

Hi jacoavlu,

The replies are just a side effect of the forum medium I think, instead of just a dry voting output we end up with a more vibrant threads that results in related discussions (see above re: XXL for example).

Experience has shown that a reservation facility did not really work that great in the real world (given the growth of the forum and the customer base).

Drop Giles a PM and I am sure he would be happy to elaborate on this.
