IHSH-277-IND - 9oz Selvedge Ombré Check Work Shirt - Indigo
-
I'm on vacation and my shirt is waiting for me, how's it compare to the red 247?
-
@Filthy what size did you take? What's your typical IH size?
-
It's a 4xl but I could probably fit a 3xl in the shirt no problem. I do this size to get the width I need at the waist. Otherwise I can almost blow the 2nd button up from the bottom off when I sit down. The problem is that I have lost 10 lbs since November. I have a 2xl UHF and it is too small still but all my 3xl shirts fit great now.
-
Roger that, thanks!! Keep on droppin those extra lbs man, nice job!
-
@Nskelton anything in particular you’re curious about?
Someone else may be more observant, but I don’t notice much difference. Same weight, different colors? The 277 does feel slightly stiffer off hand not sure if it’s due to the weave or just being new.
-
@RoxRocks86 since I own the 247 and can't wait to see this in hand I thought I'd ask. I thought it looked very similar in pictures to the 247.
-
Being that they are both 9oz. unbrushed flannel I think it’s safe to say they are basically the same material

Long time lurker, first time poster. Seems this shirt is as good of an excuse as any to dip my toe in and say hi! Way too cold in New England this week to take outdoor shots, but snagged some quick and dirties in my kids’ bathroom.
As others have stated (and shown), the colors in this thing are next level. I can just stare at it and start giggling. It’s textile art for sure.
I’m 6’0” and 180lbs, and XL fits like a glove.
Cheers!

think we are similarly built. I am 6.1 and 185 lbs … waiting for my XL . Bureaucracy had to stall it at customs for a day or two
Fortunately IR staff were of great help and all duties were paid for. I totally forgot about new rules after brexit... -
Seconded. Congrats and welcome!

Mine arrived today and it’s even better in person. Unfortunately my fabric has a pretty nasty snag in front that I’m nervous will get worse. I didn’t want to cut or pull on it and make worse. Any suggestions?

Damn, sorry that was missed. DO NOT CUT IT. You just need to get that loop to the reverse of the fabric. Thread a needle with about a foot of cotton yarn. From the reverse of the fabric, take the needle through the fabric exactly where the loop is, leaving a few inches of yarn on the reverse, loop the yarn around one leg of the offending loop and take the needle back through the fabric in exactly the same place as before. Remove the needle and gently pull on both tag ends of the yarn, pulling the tag to the reverse. From the face, you should not know anything has been done…
