IHSH-156 - Burgundy or Charcoal Ultra Heavy Plain Flannel Western

The shirt should shrink if you wash or hot in the machine. Depending on how hot you go you'll see more or less shrinkage.(got it on my 101 TG). Up to almost a size with very hot washing. But it's not going to stretch a lot. So, if it's tight in some areas I'd size up and control the shrinkage of the XXL by going slowly hotter until it's right.

Thank you. I will size up to XXL.

Tough one. It won't really shrink with a 30c wash. But if you're unhappy with the fit now and you're anything like me, you won't wear it.

Also any shrinkage will be proportionally more noticeable in the length than the arm, chest and shoulders.

Absolutely correct - it will just languish in the closet.

Kiya at SE got back to me and basically said the same thing - I need to move up a size.

I was fine with the (very) hot wash because I sized up one. I did so because my TTS was sold out.
When I got the shirt I wore it the first time, then I asked Paps: "Hot wash or back to Giles?"
"Wash", she said. So I did, and now I'm fine.

A souvenir from my visit in Gosport. The colour looks brilliant in reality and I think the measurements will be perfect after a few hot washes (which will probably lead to nice aging as well).

Can't wait to break out my cpo, again! Looks great on you, Max

Wish I had a burgundy….one of the best colors ever.

Max has made me seriously think about getting one, such a nice deep rich colour.

@Jordonf9 & @Niro I won't tell you not to do it - I love mine. A new UHF always eases the pain of summer coming to an end.

You mean "It adds to the EXUBERANT AMOUNT OF JOY one experiences when that foul fuck of a season comes to end"?..

Had an Austrian customer visit us last night for a BBQ and this morning for shopping.  Well, he and the fam are on the way to holiday in Scotland, so of course Gosport is on the way  :)…...His wife walked out with a Burgundy IHSH-157

I love the two UHF I have. I can't justify getting another stellar piece of IH. I def have enough to make daily wear a truly enjoyable decision.

well the burgundy is now on my list, but since I already picked up the purple ombre and piggy UHFs this summer, the upcoming shirt releases are priority.

another echo to @Max Power and in person shopper…

The pics don't to justice to it, such a great shirt... will be my to go for on FALLnel day...

[Max Power]

Great purchase! Mine could benefit from a hot wash (very long sleeves), but I feel like it's too early - the feel and smell of a new UHf is something else.

ha, yeah know what you mean… going for the same
