      Oh well, now you got me. Pulled the trigger on that beauty. Has anybody seen "American Hardcore" and remembers, how Henry Rollins says "We were broooke" (about SST Records)? I feel like that, but in a good way.

        I went for an "L" this time, although my SH-08 is an "XL". But that one is rather loose and if my memory doesn't fool me, the 08 ran a bit smaller than the other denim shirts, so I sized down. Good or bad?

          when i compare the measurements

          SE-website
          IHSH-08: XL
          Chest 45.5
          Vert.Length 28
          Sleeve Length 27
          Shoulders 19

          IH-website
          IHSH-27: L
          Chest 44

          Even though it will shrink a little bit I think you should be good to go with youre ordered Large one!

            That's what I thought, too. Thanks for the comparison!! The SH 08 is so stiff, that a little room is desireable, but I wanted the Sh27 to fit slimmer, but not tight. We'll see if that will come true.

              Just beware, the IHSH-27 is raw, so you will get some shrinkage…............

                Yeah, I know, but I think I've got so much room in the 08, that it's doable.

                  I own the 08 and the 27 shirts and also bought my 27 a size smaller, love the fit of both.

                    Are there any washing standards with this shirt, by that I mean how long to go between washes? With jeans its easy to go months without a wash, but shirts seem to smell a lot sooner. I've worn mine for a about a week as much as I can and can't imagine wearing it in public after a couple of weeks without washing it.

                      If it smells, wash it.  If its dirty, wash it.  It's a shirt. . . not a science experiment  😉

                          ^same thoughts here…should be good to go with your large!
                          even if you can't fit a hoodie under it, but i guess you're cool with that 🙂

                            If it just smells stick it in the freezer, that'll kill the bacteria that's making it smell.
                            I've got a 27 and haven't washed it yet, just soaked it.
                            Gonna wait 6 months 'till I wash it.

                            just wear - don´t compare - what matters is that one loves what one is wearing…

                              Thanks, I'll do that. It just seemed that if I washed it every time it stunk, then I'd be washing it after every few wears in the summer and it might not fade well.

                                Sooo, I'm so happy to get my shirt today. Kudos and thanks to Giles for super fast shipping and for adding the fantastic stickers! The fitpics turned out sh*t, but they're good enough to hear your opinion. I love the (pre-soak) fit and would keep it…

                                But one thing's gotta be clear IHSH27 vs. IHSH 08 = Me vs. Denim Sailor, if you know what I mean... This ones much lighter and perfect for spring. Decent daylight pics will follow....

                                      ^^ beautiful. I love how the selvage peeks out. I take beatle's "Bam" as sign to keep that shirt, right?

                                          No, of course not. Just asking because I sized down and didn't soak yet. How could I let go of this beauty?

                                            sleeves are long enough, extra room around the waist - in other words - will be perfect after hot soak
