    I can relate to that. I almost wear it constantly. I love this shirt, it’s amazing!!

    I can resist anything but temptation.

        I did a quick close up comparison to distinguish between the 12 oz. Cotton hickory stripe and the 12 oz cotton Wabash. I thought they were the same, but upon inspection the wabash has smaller "ribs" (terminology) than the Hickory stripe. They feel similar to the hand as far as weight and thickness, but they are not the same.

            Hickory stripe is woven with indigo and white warps and a white weft.  Wabash is woven with indigo warp and indigo weft and the white dots are bleached (using the discharge method) out of the fabric, post-weave.

                    I was about to pull the trigger on the Kanreki and out of nowhere this was Restocked. I wanted a Wabash soon after I got my IHSH-07, but my size was out of stock and I did order one today. This is my third IH shirt.

                    Where can I find the Restock timelines?

                      @jothishan:

                      Where can I find the Restock timelines?

                      You can’t. The factors that affect supply mean they are not necessarily regular. If an item is marked as «Continuous Production» then it will come back, but your best bet is to make an enquiry on the product thread or email the shop.

                      Congratulations on the purchase of a classic shirt.

                        Just ordered this shirt in Medium. Requested shoulders err on the size of large, should that option be available, we’ll see. My main reason for sizing down is to mitigate sleeve and body length and hopefully get a trim fit. Hope it works!

                            That’s beautiful! The black one, I plan to keep as crispy and neat as long as possible, but the indigo one… oh, I can’t wait to beat that one up. Yours is a real testament to its potential.

                              ^Same thoughts!

                              Even my piece will be arriving by Monday and until then my IHSH-07 is my companion. It is a brilliant shirt and I can only imagine that this Wabash is going to be even more stunning.

                                So I got this delivered today. The shirt feels a little snug on certain places, may be that is how it is constructed. Hope it does not shrink by a great extent.

                                Apart from the fit, the quality on this shirt is phenomenal! Hope to break it in and fade it out!

                                  Wash it carefully (30C and low or no spin in the machine, or careful handwash) and you should not see meaningful shrinkage.

                                  This is pretty heavy duty material so the fit can feel a little awkward at first.

                                    Just got mine in the mail. First off, again the experience of buying directly from Iron Heart comes just shy of Giles landing a chopper in front of your house and checking to make sure the shirt fits himself. It got here FAST, and I couldn’t be happier. That being said, my “experiment” has paid off, as I am thrilled with the medium in this shirt. I started out as a size XL, have lost 80lbs and was no longer sure what size I would be. I think l I’ll be exchanging my black version of this shirt for a medium.

                                    To help anyone else in a similar sizing dilemma, I’ll post my measurements. I’m 5’10.35”, 161 lbs. Chest 41” directly under the armpits, but this is mostly due to a wide-ish back, when measured directly over the nips I’m about 40”. Shoulders from the tips of the shoulder bones are 17.5”, and I’m finding with these shirts (at least for me) it is ok for them to be a little shorter than the shoulders measurement, due to the cut of the shirt. From now on, I’m going to focus more on sleeve/body length and chest, and stop worrying about the shoulders as much. Anyway, hope my rambling helps someone who might being going through any uncertainty determine their size. To call these garments “shirts” borders on silly, as they really are something amazing.

                                      Fantastic fit there @Entropy rider ! Result looks well worth the effort you put into sizing correctly.

                                      The journey is the objective.

                                        I just want to give a shout out to @Entropy rider first for stepping up to health and losing that weight and all. Congratulations.  It's harder as we get older.  And next for the good pictures and discussion of fit, which is always helpful to others.  I am much your size now and will be taking that advice to heart in future purchases.  Kudos to IH for making it right by you but nothing surprising about that.

                                          @profdbrk Thank you, as well… it does get harder, but I’ve also become more disciplined in my forties, which has helped. Brands like IH have become part of my weight loss maintenance strategy... I can’t afford to replace my entire wardrobe and don’t want to wear anything less  😃
