    @DevonReviewer this is my documented shrinkage from the IHSH-33-IND. Same fabric so the shrinkage should be similar. For what it's worth the wabash of the IHSH-62 will shrink meaningfully too, with the correct treatment.

    @neph93:

    @Crit_Obs:

    Did you get around to taking the post-wash measurements?

    Ok… the before is based on Alex’s measurements of the same shirt, the after is after a 40C wash with low spin and air dry. It’s all in centimetres. Because Europe.

    Before/After
    Shoulder 48/47,4
    Length 78/76.8
    Chest 58,8/58
    Sleeve 66.6/65.5

      Thanks, sounds like a good opportunity to modify the fit… I have avoided machine washes for all my denim to date, and intend to continue, what do you think about a half hour bath tub soak at 40 and then 60 if I seek a bit more shrink?

        Temperature is important for shrinkage, but so is agitation. Move it around and it will shrink more. Excuse me for getting down and dirty, but if you sweat anywhere near as much as I do you'll need agitation to get this shirt clean. My point being that gentle washing regimes with jeans are doable if you don't labour in them, shirts not so much. So there is an argument for just getting the shrinkage out.

          I see what you mean, will see how it goes and keep an open mind to machine washes; our washing machine does have some very gentle programs that may be suitable!

            This thread needs a few more pictures [emoji846]

            This has been a go to for me for a long time and I would say 3 washes? Picture taken fresh off a wash and no filter.

                Indeed. That is sexy stuff. The roping at hem and wear on the placket is great.

                    Looking good, as others say the roping on the hem is particularly lovely… I am just realising how much long term wear is needed to get a denim shirt to yield its fade'y secrets!

                      I'll dig the better camera out and get some pictures of the roping etc in the next few days. Its really epic and a great shirt.

                      As far as long term wear, it definitely takes some time, but as you can see it pays off for sure.

                      The first year or so it was my go to over layer or just shirt most of the time. Then the last few months other shirts have taken up my time. Mostly I've spent the winter working on the 178

                                Happy to hear they're doing so well! It looks so good on everyone and evolves pretty amazingly. I embarrassingly have to admit that I returned mine a while ago because I wasn't feeling it on me. My third standard 33 keeps me happy and busy, though.

                                    I've had this shirt for around a year. Its been on several trips with me including some camping trips and its my most worn shirt from the rest that I own. Yet in comparison to the 159 or the 68 for example, its the one that's been the toughest to fade. Absolutely love the fabric though and it is still one, if not my favorite IH shirt. I like how the creases have set in sharp and noticeable compared to my other shirts.

                                      This is such a great shirt. Its been my go to. I cant wait for it to cool down a bit so it will get some use.

                                      I kinda want another one as a backup[emoji23]
