IHTL-1501-OLV - 11oz Cotton Knit Long Sleeved Crew Neck Sweater - Olive
-
Size Large, great fit! Very versatile piece.

Could the crew confirm what I believe I'm seeing: that a Large in 1600 would map to a Medium here? I like the way my old 1600 fits at Large.

It surely looks that way. The 1600’s are unwashed though and will shrink some.
I also note they are differently sized to the previous batch of 1600’s. Slightly longer but slimmer.

Ah thanks @neph93 helpful as always.

Got mine in last night. Both the olive and the cream are utterly glorious. I’m a big fan of the black and white, but having these earth tones is heaven. So flexible and very easy to pair with pretty much everything. The colours are really deep and warm too.
Hi neph93,
Do you wear size L or XL -

L in these. I used to do either an L or an XL in the older black and white versions, but these come up right in the middle in terms of chest and length.

I thank you. Then I am correct with L. From your older posts I conclude that we are the same size.

Great fit right there, @neph93
I was so blown away of the quality when I got the white & black, that I pulled the trigger on the olive. Do I regret it? Hell, no. My favorite IH piece right now and extremely „layerable“, if that is a word
Paired with my 902ZR. Can’t wait for them to fade. Olive and denim are a perfect match.
*i was so happy That I got the Fuji app running, that looking into the camera was too much…

Thank you! Was wearing mine today over a tee in fact.
And you’re right, they are glorious. Great kop [emoji1417]

Mine is due to be here tomorrow. I got the creme on Black Friday…. Needed another ASAP

This sweater always makes me chuckle. It looks like a sweater, but it stretches like denim
Whenever I try to take it off, it usually involves me trying to remove it like a regular sweater, giggling at how horribly it went, then trying 2-3 more times before it actually comes off.
The material is an enigma!

Word! Something this soft and comfortable and so damn cotton-y shouldn’t also be this heavy and…. ?
I can’t find the words to describe it. It isn’t stiff or rigid, or even inflexible, they all imply discomfort, and they aren’t uncomfortable. An enigma indeed.

Do you guys throw theses in the dryer? I have two I recently picked up and will need to wash shortly.

I followed neph's advice and gave this and the cream version a warm wash and tumble dry to get some shrinkage. Pretty happy with the results!

But that depends on whether you want shrinkage. If you're happy with the current size and don't want it to budge, I would do a cold, gentle wash and line-dry.

I have washed and dried mine several times (black version in both short and long sleeve). The dryer didn't shrink them in any discernible way, but if I were to do it over again I would either hang dry or toss them in the dryer for about 10-15 minutes to get them started, and then hang dry for the rest.
What I'm seeing most is the collar starting to show some wear and slight discoloration and I think the harsher dryer cycle is causing some of it.
