IHW-01 (Melton Wool shirt)

[cristeza]

I can't figure out whether to get a medium or large. My normal IH shirt size is medium. My Chest measures a little over 39.5. I'm leaning towards a large. 18" shoulders usually fit pretty well.

If you want to layer at all, go large.

[cristeza]

Awesome. Purchased.

Enjoy it and post some pics.  Besides my jeans, this is my most worn IH item.

agreed, get large

i'm an M or sometimes even S in IH shirts, and I have this in a L, perfect for layering

On the other hand…

I wear a Large in IH shirts, and got a Large in the IHW...I wear it over a tshirt and under my Aero...

But I can only do that when it's biting, awful cold outside (think 20F and windy)

Sooooo warm

I wear a M in shirts and have a M in the IHW.  The normal flannels fit under it but the heavy ones do not.  The most constricting point is the cuffs.

I definitely will post pics. I probably will just wear it with t shirts underneath. Florida doesn't permit too much layering. I'm not to worried about it being a little big. I kind of want to achieve that look with it.

Best shirt I own. Good choice Cristeza. I went TTS (L) with it. Sized up but it was just too long for me (i'm only 5ft10…1m76). The L is perfect with or without layers. Can even get a hoodie under it and it still looks incredible. Enjoy.

in terms of the thickness, how does this compare with the IHSH-32?

thickness, taken literally, tough to say, probably about the same, but different material of course

but the IHW-01 definitely stiffer, more constricting at the elbows, probably a little warmer (?)

Any chance there will be a restock on these in Black - XL? I want one so badly!

[bertoni]

I think Giles said the next lot will be arriving in the Autumn. I'll let him confirm that though.

[Just_KC]

ahhh okay. thanks! looking forward to autumn then. 

[bertoni]

You decide not to go for an L then?

[Just_KC]

yeah, tried one which belong to a friend. it does fit but damn every time i move my arms, it feels like i'm about to shred the shirt.

found out that my shoulder size is 19 inch, not 18.5 inch.  been measuring it wrongly. amazing how 0.5 - 0.7 inch can make such a huge difference.

[bertoni]

That sucks! If you'd posted about a month ago I could have sent you the XL I ordered from SE. They do go fast. Amazing considering the price but once you've worn one that just doesn't seem important anymore. It'll be worth the wait

[Just_KC]

yeah totally. it's not cheap that's for sure. but, i love how clean it looks. plain, simple and timeless design.

Next run will be in Autumn.  Started talking colours this week end…..........

[Giles]

I am just in the final throes of deciding this Fall's colours with H.  Def Blue again, probably Charcoal grey and 1 or 2 other colours, just honing the choice down….............
