it's so hefty yes soft and comfortable. Not that you are going for it, but it get's lots of compliments too. It's rugged luxury, Like the G-wagon of shirts

Brought a medium. I’m in between a large/ medium….. Lol. But sleeve and chest on the large too big (sleeve way too long), but maybe the shoulders on the medium too small. What’s a man to do? Still trying to shrink down my purple UHF. Here’s hoping. Thanks to Graham for advice.
-
So you have a medium on the way? You can get quite a bit of shrinkage out of wabash using fairly aggressive washing. You’d loose about 1-2cm in the length and arms that way. If the M doesn’t work then there are possibilities with the L.
Yep. Bit of a gamble, especially as Graham at IH suggested a large, but the medium ticked all my boxes bar the shoulders, and I’d need to lose an inch off both the chest and the sleeves with a large. I’m hoping the length on the arms will make up for the inch I’m losing in the shoulders.

For me that a dangerous move, I am large use to be a medium.. rather have bit bigger wash and size it

Thanks. Will see. Shrinkage apparently negligible with a cold wash.

@Richard I'm an XL in most IH shirting, and my XL wabash came in pretty big on me until i washed it, notably larger than my other 4 xl IH shirts.
I would be hopeful that your medium works out. time will tell

I was going to say they do come in quite big, good point. There also tends to be a trade off between shoulders and chest. If one is a little large, then a smaller than usual measurement the other place matters less.

Thanks @neph93 and @jordanscollected
Fingers crossed. -

Fingers crossed. Medium all sold out, so…... -
Arrived today. Amazing shirt. An inch to spare in the P2P I think, so think the fit is good, but only cold washing. The large would surely swim on me. I guess Wabash softens up, right? Any stretch? Thanks in advance.

Excuse rubbish photos.

ThT looks fantastic Richard - I have found the wabash to tighten up a bit

Agreed this is the best fit. A good illustration of how a smaller shoulder can be mitigated by a wider chest. Sleeve and body length are great.
It won’t really stretch, it will soften, but only after a lot of wear and many washes. I wore my ‘68 over a number of years as an actual work shirt for doing actual work in. It ended up
incredibly soft, it does take time though.A 60C wash will give it about 1cm of shrinkage, a 30C wash won’t trouble it at all.
Well done, sir!
