      179 in XL washed at 50C/1000rpm and hang dried. Measurements before/after:

      One thing should be noted; I'd worn it three times before I measured it and my subjective impression is that this fabric is stretchy. When I tried it on post wash it seemed to be the same in the chest as it was when I first tried it on. So definitely length to be lost but I think there's minimal to lose in the chest and shoulders, and it will come back with one wear, much like a pair of jeans.

      I've said it before, but this really is a great shirt in the flesh. Lovely to wear and the colours and pattern are tasty.

        Good to see that the length shrinks quite a bit after a warm wash.

          Also, the flannel material provided adequate insulation from boiling water spills and keeps you cozy while enjoying said cup of joe.

                    That's great news. It's a very forgiving material I think.

                        You both should swing by coffee spots near Self Edge in SF. Plenty of peeps have been purchasing IH and other brands to be decked out while I graciously get iced coffee for SE employees and myself. 🙂 it’s not all that bad yo!

                            @deadendpro Will be in SF Friday and Saturday before heading South on Sunday. Not sure if I'll be able to make it over there to SE. Any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

                                  Nice! I think I'll give mine a round in a dryer too to get a tad more shrinkage.

                                    The sizing due to the shirt being unwashed was putting a few people off, so much to the "joy" of our local dry cleaner/laundrette, we sent 60 odd of these shirts to be washed, dried and pressed and are relaunching them as one washed.

                                    Here's the new chart:

                                          Never believe the "one washed so no more shrinkage". The dryer shatters that myth every time.

                                            Great news on the relaunched sizing @Alex ! Hoping there is an XXL in there with shoulders closer to 20" - if so we may have a winner…
