IHTB-01 - Extra Heavy Long Sleeved Cotton Knit Sweater

Finding it really hard to size for these. I’m generally an XL in IH shirts, but the XL in these has a chest measurement of 21.5 inch seems really small, and I’m certainly not that broad of a guy.
Probably over thinking and should just take a punt, but do people generally size up for these?

Checked the charts and I’m very close to @AdamC in height and weight. What size would Adam take in these? What kind of fit does this achieve, tight/relaxed? Sorry for all the questions!

They are quite trim in the shoulder and chest.

I’m XL in shirts and wear L or XL in these. The L works as a base layer under a vest or jacket and fits closely. I’m carrying some extra weight at the moment so they are not as flattering. The XL works great on its own or with a tee under.

I’m 6’ and weigh about 15st. Quite broad and heavy built.

I’d imagine XL would be right for you.

@jerkules I do not own a TB01 but would go with L, which would be a tighter fit as as base layer. XL is a bit big on the shoulders but I would wear XL if I were to layer or wanted a looser fit - hope that helps!

@AdamC that’s great, thank you so much!

Giles or Alex: any chance of a grey/white or purple/black restock? I am looking for XL. Any information appreciated.

@browniemcghee none in production I'm afraid. But that doesn't mean we won't re-run soon!

Thanks for getting back to me. Wishing I’d sized up on the purple. It is great regardless.

Missed this, thank you as always @neph93 . Got my eye on the grey/black, these things look bloody killer but the numbers on paper just didn’t make sense to me!

Measure any t-shirt or long sleeved top you own, (unless you wear them baggy). The p2p sits higher than with a shirt as the armholes are shorter, and they are intended to be closer fitting than a shirt too.

I’ll try and put on one of mine tomorrow to show the fit…

I had been looking at these but thought the measurements looked on the smaller side (figured they were intended to be fairly close fitting).

I have sized up one or even two times on IH thermals, tees, and extra heavy jersey stuff. Bigger the better, IMO. When they’re base-layer tight, they make me feel/look like a sausage.
