      Hmmmm.  As far as I am aware, we have not asked Japan for any changes to the original product.

      Japan are still saying:  "This product is unwashed. → After washing several times, the length and body will shrink by about 1.5 cm."

      Anyone else getting any shrinkage?

        My original ones did for sure.

        I’m planning on picking these up soon but it has always struck me as strange that these and the IHTL-1501 have different washing instructions seeing as they are the same fabric and construction.

        For what it’s worth, I hot washed and machine dried my new IHTL-1501-OLV and got a little shrinkage.

          My original black XXL also shrank 2cm in length and P2P. Same MO: 60°C wash with 1600 spin cycle and put in the dryer after.

            Looks to me like the fabric has just tightened up in some areas rather than shrunk.

                  I just couldn’t help but complete the quartet.

                  Most amazing tee I’ve ever come across 😬

                  Fit pic will follow sooner or later.

                  Use it or lose it.

                    Recognized I had never posted these here. Once you go 1600, there’s no way back…

                          Hi Daniel, good to see you found the way into this thread!! Actually I’m wearing 2XL. Thought about going XL, but didn’t have the balls to risk it (length < 70cm can be problematic)
                          Im totally happy with the fit, so I guess it was the right choice. 👍🏽

                          Use it or lose it.

                            A little snug across my chest and upper arm but otherwise fits great IMO. The fabric is just plain amazing….

                              Looks good to me man–and agreed, the fabric rivals the old 7.5oz loopwheel in my hierarchy of T shirt fabrics 🙂

                              Think it, be it.

                                Looks great @Anesthetist .  And yeah, I’d say this fabric is one of my favourite things IH makes. Washes great too.

                                  It’s come to a point where I would by absolutely everything made from that fabric…

                                      Looking forward to the colder months, so I can rock these on a daily basis

                                        Can I expect a restock for this colour in October as well, just as the cream version?
                                        I really want to try this heavyweight, and otherwise I might have to deal with Switzerland/Feinfracht.
