      Thanks for clearing that up Neph… mostly cpo (Iron Heart terminology) just means slightly oversized, meant to be worn as a mid/outer layer. I got it  😉
      Come on 1600 GMT!!

          I've been waffling on this for the past 30min since I'm all stocked up on heavyweight shirts that I never wear here in SoCal. But f*ck it. Copped.

            Snagged the last XS. This will be my first ever houndstooth anything so Im pretty excited. We have about one more month of "cold" weather here in TX so Im going to make this a constant player in the rotation.

              Grateful for my grey wool 163 to help me as I fought the urge to pick this up.  @neph93 thanks for the reminder pic!

              Looking forward to seeing how this looks on those that picked one up…

                Having two 163’s did not stop me from picking one up [emoji51] They are two of my favourites though, so they were more inspiration than discouragement. It is currently still in Gosport but pics when I get for sure.

                  Arrived today and it’s glorious. I am normally an XXL in UHFs and sized down to an XL for this - the fit is spot on but not really suited to being a true overshirt; it looks great just over a tee. The fabric hand is fantastic and could see wearing this alone if it wasn’t for the dry cleaning aspect.

                  That being said, could one get away with washing this by hand or gentle cycle on cold and lay flat to dry? Given how it fits, I can’t really afford any shrinkage… [insert joke here]

                        sized down to xl which might have been a mistake. Then again maybe I should drop some weight ::)

                        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                        Well, I have others.

                            ^ Agreed with ALL of this.

                            Tried mine on yesterday. Like you, the arms and shoulders are good, but the length combined with the slimmer opening makes it a little trim. The chest works. One encouraging thing I noticed for the half hour I wore it, is that the fabric has some stretch to it. Not surprising, given it is wool.

                              Thanks @Chap  @neph93  good advice,  sizing up would  make it look baggy and it's too nice a shirt for that.
                              still can't believe the softness I'm used to Pendletons and while they don't bother me I've seen them called hair shirts.

                                Very pleased I managed to pick one of these up.  The collaboration has lent itself  to a product that has a slightly different feel and look to it from a traditional IH offering.  The fabric is really nice and something different which is why I purchased one.

                                I picked up a large and  will wear it over a thin T-shirt like a standard shirt.

                                Poor picture but it gives you an idea of fit.  I am 5ft 10" and 185 lb.

                                There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.

                                    Very nice indeed. I really enjoy the pocket design, size and placement, as well as the big buttons. It is a great piece and the combination of heritage fabric with Haraki-san’s modern detailing results in an understated elegance and refined functionality.

                                        Pretty words, mate 😃 I am going to keep J Peterman in mind for sharing future thoughts about IH garments.

                                        @ddtrash that's a perfect fit!

                                        Think it, be it.

                                            The work is coming along well. The galleries keep calling, so maybe you'll stay another six months. See how it goes.

                                            On certain days, you consider whether you truly feel the energy of the vortex or if it's just the pull of all the unanswered questions anyone who's lived long enough manages to collect.
