      Thanks for the info. Where does most of the 'shrink' come from, the hot water wash, or from the tumble dry? Or is a combination of the two necessary to get shrinkage?  As in, if I were to wash my UHFs in hot water, but then hang dry instead of tumble dry, would there still be shrinkage? I have always felt that machine dryers are hard on clothes, not just the shrinkage part, but they pucker the seams and I can feel a difference in the fabric between shirts I've owned for a few years that I've never machine/tumble dried and those that I have used a dryer.

        Agitation is really what casues the most shrinkage.

          I would not recommend tumbling drying at all, nor did I. I should have specified air dry though.

          You will get the shrinkage you need from the wash… like G says it is the agitation and lubrication of the fibres, followed bybthe subsequent contraction when drying that will cause shrinkage.

                    No stranger to UHFs but this one is just such a beautiful shirt. The brushed side is so reminiscent of vintage blankets and I know it will keep getting better. No one else makes em like this! [emoji3590]

                          Realized I neglected to thank @rivetandhide for their awesome customer service when I bought this beauty! They immediately reached out with sizing confirmation and shipped out same day with free fast UPS international–just like IHUK! Really getting spoiled by this level of service. Would never hesitate to shop with them again!

                            Self Edge had one left and it happened to be my size. The orange with the navy sold me. Now I need temps to drop. It’s October and I’m still wearing tshirts most days.

                                I think this is going to be one of those shirts that I will never tire of seeing on these pages. Looks fantastic against the desert backdrop @Denimminer

                                  Thanks, I could not decide between this or the black and yellow one, but now I'm seeking that one anyways 😢

                                      This isn’t my first purchase, but it is my first post…here goes
                                      I flippin’ love this shirt.
                                      I love it on my shoulders. I love it on the hanger. I love the cut, the cloth, the buttons, the sheer engineered brilliance.
                                      I think, in its own way, it loves me back.
                                      And for some reason, when I wear it, I want to visit Peru.
                                      Mahalo!

Perfect! The shirt is a great fit and you wear it well. Look forward to reading and viewing more of your posts.
