@chrisjohnnick:

Not to throw a wrench in the gears and try and fix something that ain't broken, but what about adding snaps to one of these instead of buttons?

Generally speaking Haraki-san is strict on that. Work shirts have buttons, westerns have snaps. There have been exceptions, notably work shirt CPO’s, and the quasi-legendary IHSH-91.

If mechanic's shirts are considered a category of work shirt, there's a long history of snaps on IH ones there, and I don't think (easily could be wrong) that snaps are any more traditional on that style of shirt than buttons would be. So, adding to the hope that there are more 91s in the future. Snaps IMO are much more functional than buttons but sometimes you want a work shirt and not a western. I know that salability is just one factor in the calculus, but I think snap long- and short-sleeved work shirts in classic fabrics like denim, herringbone/prison stripe, wabash, hickory stripe, west point twill, swedish serge, and chambray would certainly sell.

Testing protection afforded by 10 oz cotton against the beak of a frisky parrot…

Ha! That is a fun pic… your parrot?

Not mine, pet at a restaurant where we sat for lunch after our covid # 2 shots. She was super tame but got upset when I didn’t let her gnaw away on my glasses!

Does anyone size down on these compared to their UHF workshirt size?  I'm an XL in the UHF workshirts but I'm thinking I should go for an L in this one.

Just got mine in! Kudos to the IH team for getting this from UK to US in 3 days. Lovely shirt! The large fits like a slim large. For ref 6’2, 185lbs.

Congrats, classic shirt. The IH shipping is crazy good for most destinations and especially to the US.

Word to the wise… comparing IH sizes to pre-conceived ideas about standard sizing is a waste of energy. There is no standard sizing. Measurements are key.

Just to elaborate on what Reuben says above…..

yeah this one seems like it runs a little big by IHSH sizing– the XL seemed like it would be too big so err'd on the slimmer side.

Hmm I’ve got a hankering for this shirt. Incorrectly sized in the black a couple of years ago, loved the fabric though. @mrbendel yours looks spot on, stone cold classic

This classic is hard to beat for daily life activities. It pairs best with the light brown duck of my Old Navy trousers.

I absolutely love this one. I call it the Crosby Stills and Nash shirt. Takes me right back to the late sixties

Finally found one in my size, such a beautiful shirt! I was looking for a more summer friendly addition to my 12OZ Trio (JCIII, Wabash, Hickory) and this is perfect.
