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

Helps a lot. Thanks very much for taking the time. You're a great example of what the forum is all about [emoji1434]
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.

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

Minor thing but in shop measurements sleeve opening should be sleeve
