      I’m sure you all want to see a sweaty picture of me in my garage trying the shirt on while my kids are screaming inside the house? I’m sure someone out there requested that.

      In all seriousness, this is another awesome one from the Stubborn Crew. Compared to the mocha from last year, I am surprised how stiff it is. The fabric really gives overtime.

        Ugh… I’m jealous. Mine is crawling int’s way to me, seemingly stopping for a rest at every opportunity. This is my first new IH shirt in forever and I neeeeed it. Did you go with tour standard size?

          It will get there!

          I’m normally between an XL and XXL, and I opted for the XL since it was a little on the larger side for the measurements. Did I make the wrong choice?  😃

            That fit looks great!  I also opted for my regular UHF size, even though it was on the bigger end.  Also waiting on mine to arrive.

            Blanket-line all the things!!!

              The fabric, from last year, is very stiff at first but then becomes much softer with wear and a wash or two. The color is very lovely. Wish it was 94 in Los Angeles.

                I'm in Playa Vista today. Brought my IHSH-33.  Too dang hot, even for that.

                  You wouldn’t be a true IH fanboy if you didn’t go to extremes for a fit pic  🙂

                    Nope. you did not. Looks trim and fitted. Very good imho.

                    Also this news makes me ecstatic as I am a small XL. L measurements have always tempted me and when these came up slightly bigger I took the risk.

                      The fabric is very stiff, but my tan one from last year is very soft now. It just takes a bit. The color on this one is amazing. Looks even better in the light.

                          Looks epic on you @Wlemon congrats.

                          My size M arrived this morning, thanks @Iron Heart Germany

                          Oh my it's exceptional, certainly a killer piece of shirting. It's dimensionally, excluding length, identical to my 'M' IHSH-246-NIN (my only other IH shirt in M) but its snug due to the difference in fabric weight /stiffness. I am left questioning if a Large would have been better. (Not that I had a choice in what turned out to be a race to the check out).

                          Is this military serge fabric known to soften and give a little, if so, I might be persuaded to persevere?

                            It won’t have the stretch like denim but it will become softer overtime. I would say it behaves similarly to the duck fabric. I think that would be a good comparison.

                                  @Giles seems like a good idea. The fabric is lovely and the color of the green and last year's mocha are out of this world. Would love to see it in other earthtones colors.

                                    H thinks it's possible, just double checking with Tom san…..

                                        This is a fantastic idea. The 13oz. Serge is wonderful and this green is epic! [emoji41][emoji122]

                                          If this means making lots of the fabric then summer weight cargo’s in the 888 cut has to happen.

                                          EDIT: North Norwegian summer. Obvs.
