      … results in an understated elegance and refined functionality.

      Oh Fuck…..

      "DETAILS
      In the Vortex.

      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.

      The ones you came here to excavate.

      In the meantime, you grow your own tomatillos and hike to Devil's Bridge every couple of weeks. In the morning, before the sun gets too high.

      Your neighbor Dahlia says you should come to dinner.

      You think yes, and then you say so.

      "Wear that," she says. And so you do."

      "OK face up to it - you're useless but generally pretty honest and straightforward . . . it's a rare combination of qualities that I have come to admire in you" - Geo 2011

                  It’s sort of fun to get a shirt from IH that is a essentially a new fit. I only say sort of because it has also thrown me back 6 or seven years to when every purchase had a complimentary sack of newbie anxiety included.

                  I did more research than I’ve done in years to decide between an L and an XL. Went for the L, and am now blind as to whether it actually fits. I welcome opinions, ( @DrPat here’s your chance from some brutal objectivity, mate  ;)).

                        Looks good @neph93 , sizing up would screw up the shoulders and sleeves.

                          It’s a perfect trim fit (as a 1 year iron heart rabbit hole newbie it’s comforting that the experts had the same anxieties I did going for the large)!

                            I personally prefer wider shirts the older i get.As somebody already mentioned in this forum comfort over style  😉

                              I think if you’re going to hit the gym to the point there may be any gains, the chest may prove a problem. The rest looks really good. Since this won’t ever see water, at least you can’t expect it to get any smaller.

                                [mention]neph93 [/mention] Fit is absolutely perfect.  Shoulders, sleeves, length, and chest are all exactly as they should be.  And I’m assuming you’ll be dry cleaning this one so you won’t have to worry about shrinkage.

                                This wasn’t as fun as it should have been [emoji8].

                                  Haha… I’ll be tagging you for every purchase from now in. I’m sure there’ll be a stinker for you soon.

                                  Thanks everyone, for the feedback. I think the consensus pretty much reflects my own opinion. Everything fits, there could be a bit more room, but not a problem. The size up would be too big.

                                  @sabergirl when I hit the gym again it will be to make things smaller and less squidgy, not bigger. The last year has been spent in a calorific surfeit [emoji23]

                                      awesome @vaquero357 great purchase. I can say I haven't worn my gun club for any significant time yet, but nearly every time I walk into my closet I caress the fabric in amazement and anticipation for cooler temps.

                                      Like all Iron Heart pieces, pictures don't justice to how the fabric feels, but this is in a different camp than most.
