IHSH-280-BLU - 5oz Selvedge Ombré Check Madras Western Shirt - Blue
-
Anyone have good intel on how these react to wash (or even wash and dry)? I am between sizes on this one. 5'8" w broad chest/shoulder. The XXL is good in the chest but long in the sleeve. And with (to my eye) slightly wider shoulder measurements listed that will potentially lead to even more arm length. .. so, yeah, how much will this shirt shrink?
-
Most of the non denim shirts are once washed. So if you gentle wash it, it won't shrink… you could always soak just the sleeves in super hot water a couple times and then wash the shirt in cold like normal afterwards. @harleysteen

@harleysteen - I machine wash and machine dried my IHSH-226 (madras) shirt when I got it two years ago, and it definitely shrunk "up" meaning length and sleeves saw some shrink (not a ton, because as @Filthy said, they are once washed), but not in the chest. If it's a western, I would always feel ok to go up a size and wash + dry as the openings and taper on the "smaller" size and render them less wearable if you size down.. personal preference and everything, but my 2 cents.

The new shirt is amazing and fits perfectly. The sleeve length and openings are perfect this time. I love it. I'd wear it today but is is snowing outside rn. Love the weight of the fabric by the way. 10/10
Thanks so much for everything Crew, Giles, Alex, Graham!
…oh by the way I broke my phone and do t have the replacement yet. So ill wait until I get a new one for fit pics. This one has moisture in side the lens. Everything looks like a vaseline 70s porno filter.

It is a seriously welcome shirt in my collection. The fabric is lightweight and crisp, it should be perfect for our hot and humid summers here in the Midwest.
