IHSH-302-IND - Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt - Buffalo Check - Indigo
-
I've been sweating the sizing between the M and L…
I noticed AJ is the only staff person that is wearing a M (and interesting due to his listed shoulder measurement). Any chance I could get his thoughts on the fit and whether the L would've been too big? I'm pretty close to his size but 2 inches taller and slightly larger chest. My shoulders say L but everything else seems to say M :-\
Appreciate any insight!

@chadingsworth Large definitely would be too big on me throughout, I wear medium in western UHFs across the board due to my shoulders more than anything. I also prefer more room in the chest/body so I can layer them. I could get away with a small but wouldn't be able to wear much underneath and the shoulders we be a little tight!
I am not a L in any IH at all, usually cross between S/M on most stuff!
Any questions let me know

Man do I appreciate the info! Now I think I'm leaning more toward the medium as well. Last year, I almost ordered a size medium UHF and I felt good about the size. This time and wanting the UHF western indigo, it seems the shoulder measurement is ever so slightly smaller. I guess it's safe to say you have no issue with the shoulders being tight on the medium?
Generally, I'm slender. 5'10, ~145, lean runner/triathlete build. For the longest time in US shirting I used to say I was the perfect medium. Over the years as sizing has drifted, I've found needing to sometimes get a small.

@SimonA noticed the same thing you mentioned about this shirt feeling lighter and feeling different from other UHFs. I thought my mind was playing games on me so I ended up playing musical UHF’s and took turns wearing a few to compare. It’s certainly not as plush/thick and feels somewhat smoother. I’m guessing it’s due to the dye process. Love how this shirt looks and feels.
I wasn’t planning on picking this UHF up but super glad I did. It’s so beautiful 🥺

I had the same problem except I’m 5’10 155 and I like the medium but the one I got it pretty short
Imma send back and hope for a longer size. I can size up but then I gotta hot wash and still to wide for my comfort. Sweet spot is 21.3 for me but I don’t mine slightly bigger just as long as I can stay under 21.7Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah, thank you for connecting the dots. I forget this site is more than just a picture book and that reading is beneficial.

Mine showed up much later than anticipated today. The shirt has a nice feel to it, I'm glad I've got a collection of UHF's and they're all a little different in feel, adds some character. Also, to anyone wondering "is the GAH cat's eye button totally worth it?" I'd say, silly question: definitely
I think I'll feel up to snapping a few fit pics tomorrow, put on some real clothes

@Joberwocky This shirt has snuck up on me and now I’m teetering on the edge of pulling the trigger. Afraid the GAH button might push me over the edge. Glad you’re feeling better and hope you can get a pic posted!

There ya go @SKT -
Shirt is amazing, maybe the largest I've gotten a UHF, combination of slightly bigger numbers and not quite as thick fabric? Either way, I won't be mortified to wash it
