      @Heavy_blue:

      what do you guys think about the size?

      Glorious shirt. Looks like you could get away with a little shrinkage. You have a little bit extra in the arms and shoulders. But by no means too much. A warmish wash when it needs it should see the shirt tighten up just right.

        @neph93 thanks! It’s really glorious like you said! A true piece of art and thanks for profiling the size 🙂 right now i wear a thin shirt under it but it’s nice to know i can run a thicker or thermo shirt under it and like you’ve said when i wash it the shrinkage will give me the ‘perfect’ fit!

            Looking great! Did you end up altering the sleeves?

              Nice one [mention]mclaincausey [/mention] that is a great looking shirt. OT but I saw a Vilebrequin store in St Martin and thought about you. I wanted to cop a pair but my wife shut that down pretty quick.

                I basically never use the dryer because I prefer the feel of clothes after they hang to dry. But, I wanted a little bit of shrinkage and post dryer the size feels pretty good! I don't have any measurements, but after two washes (60 and 40 C) and one session in the dryer (70 C) it tighetened up nicely. Nothing major, but sizing definitely feels better now  😎

                  Can confirm I recently dried a different colored UHF that was a tad big and it fit much better with just a little bit of shrinkage.

                    There is a major difference between this Ultra Heavy Flannel and all other UHF's, this one has been overdyed, so all shrinkage (or at least all but a tiny fraction) should have already been sorted…...

                        Measured the sleeves, and they have shrunk at least 1,5 cm in total. So there's hope for you if you feel that the sleeves are bit long 🙂

                          For me it’s the first one I wear in XXL rather than XXXL - looking at the measurements it almost feels like a previous XXXL due to the shrinkage became XXL labeled and now sits right between.

                            I finally just ordered a XXL from Berkeley supply. Seems like they still have some more stock in XXL if any ones looking. I’ve typically been a XL in my westerns, but I’ve gained a few new dad lbs so I think it will work. I’m surprised I was able to find any left in stock.

                                            I just managed to snatch a random large that popped up at one of the authorized retailers. This will be my first IH flannel, so I'm pretty excited. I figured if I'm going to do it, I may as well try the 20th anniversary edition and do it right, lol. You all have a great community here and I'm excited to be a part of it.
