nope totally unintentional. turned out well.. if you look at the jeans as well, they're in reverse..
They are! Lol. Didn't notice that before….and @Cole where the hell is your left hand and why does @Alex have such a huge smile in his face?! Do I even want to know???
You can see my fingers right besides his elbow, you evil person. ???
Mmhmmmm…suuure. What happens at the Kanreki stays at the Kanreki.

it's a good thing there weren't a pair of feet poking out from under the stall.

I should have sticked to my usual XL instead of the XXL….
So, if anyone wants to trade his Xl for my XXL, let me know -
I went with my standard XL because it's a bit long for me already while shoulders and chest fit nicely. Happy to note that it stretches with wear so a wash should lose me some length while any shrinkage in the rest should stretch out… really lovely shirt. Better than I anticipated.

I too would consider giving it a wash (or two)….even though they are completely different in terms of fabric, I have the 176 and it was quite a bit too big for me when I got it. But I decided I would wear it as a looser fitting summer shirt unbuttoned over shorts.
Low and behold, I have given it two machine washes and two machine dries and its about damn near perfect.
If you are careful, I am sure given the fabric on the Kanreki shirt, you can get similar results and then stretch the areas that are too snug to get almost a custom fit.
This of course is all IMHO though

Thanks for the input gents.
I'll think about this some more

According to IHUK's own shrink test it lost a lot just with a 40C wash. Like half a size. You'd get more with 60C.

My exact same philpsophy on this one. Haven't washed mine yet though to see how the length shrinks.

This is the first IH shirt that I upsized on (normally an XL). I went with the XXL for the ptp and shoulder measurements and have washed and machine dried once. It definitely shrunk in length, both arms and body and is now close to a perfect fit. I think one more round of washing/drying and it will be perfect!
It is an awesome shirt that feels like one of my favourite t-shirts that you just love to wear. I caught my wife wearing it today and I might just have to order another one if I can’t get this one back :D.

Washed with 60C wash plus spin cycle and it shrank a good amount. Near perfect now. Went with my usual L. Crappy Pictures but i think you'll get the idea.
Love this shirt, perfect light fabric, single yoke gives it nice casual look. Represents Giles Kanreki in a more than awesome way. Happy belated one btw

Thank you Seul, minimal shrinkage in sleeves and waist would satisfy me to the max but i think future washings will take care of that. Glad i pulled the trigger on this.
-
For those who have washed and dried the 179, any significant shrink in the chest, or mainly in length?
I'd love to get the sleeves a bit shorter but can't really warrant much loss in P2P size…
Also, the Kanreki shirt is ideal for making coffee [emoji109]
