      The Duxedo… We need the duck 02's re-ran, so I can make this a 3-piece!

      Even with my arms raised straight overhead there's plenty of length

              @UnTucked what size did you get? Trying to work out what's best for me… Arms and length it should be an L, chest XL...

                I went for a medium, and without doing measurements, I know that everything on it fits me bigger than my typical IH shirts… Sleeves, collar, length, p2p.

                In the first set of pics, it's layered on my 76, and it's still baggy.

                        Duxedo the second. It wasn't intended, those were just the pants I was wearing today (mtn khakis).

                        First is xl, second is xxl. Both over UHF, which is how I plan to wear it. I'm xl in most shirts, but the chest is always the limiting factor. I'm going with the xxl, even though it's a tad long in the arms. My mobility is better and I can keep the second (scratch that: third) snap together comfortably when moving around. Plus, it might shrink up a tad and the xl would get uncomfortable any smaller. If I was going for more of a shirt fit, I'd probably go xl. Posting here to help others decide.

                          Oh and when taking this thing off the uhf felt positively airy. The construction is as expected, but still never fails to inspire awe.

                            I would vote xl. Still looks comfy.  Congrats whatever you decide. Looking good.

                              I would also vote for 1. Looks to me like even that one could take a bit of shrink without getting tight.
                              Looking good either way.

                              The journey is the objective.

                                Thanks for the replies, and I know it looks roomy enough in the photo but the chest is just too restrictive on the XL.

                                Did a hot wash and dry on the XXL today, measurements before -> after below:
                                P2P: 23.75 -> 23.6"
                                Opening: 23.75 -> 23.75"
                                Length: 31.5 -> 31"
                                Shoulders: 20.5 -> 20"
                                Arm length: 27 -> 26.25"

                                So…exactly what I was looking for, it's spot on perfect now.  Lost the excess length in the arms (aided by the small shoulder shrink) which was my major complaint about the XXL.  The loss in body length still leaves it plenty long.  Chest didn't really budge, which is great.  I also didn't measure sleeve width before or after, but that was also an area where the XL was a bit restrictive and there's no perceptible difference there either, which is also great.

                                So I'd say: if you're waffling between sizes and think you want to wear this over shirts, there's a half size of shrink available with a hot wash and dry.  I wouldn't worry about the shrink with a cold wash and gentle dry, though, I was as aggressive as possible with this one.

                                  Got a duck delivery today and have to say thank you to the IH crew for measuring and finding one for me with a bit of extra length in the sleeves.  You all rock!!!

                                  I took off my 178 to put this on and it is amazing how much lighter and more breathable this feels for just a 1oz difference in fabric weight.  I didn't put it on the scale but it is no where near as heavy as the 18oz 178 is.

                                  Love the fit and the details, a bit stiff out of the bag but that is to be expected with duck and I can see this softening up and draping perfectly after a few weeks of wear.

                                  @UnTucked  You, Sir are a scholar and a gentleman.  Keep it up, Cheers!

                                    Looks like a really good fit. Also, lovely pics. The autumnal background and sunshine really sets off the shirt.

                                      And, I'm so anxious for this shirt to get as soft as my 816's.
