      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.

      madmonday's retired….I'm just tired.

        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 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.

              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.

                  Just got mine, have to say it's what I've been after for a good while, perfect detailing and construction… one question, it's borderline neat on the sizing, will it shrink? Any experience most gratefully accepted…

                    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  🙂
