IHSH-332-SAX - Ultra Heavy Flannel Anniversary Check Western Shirt - Sax
-
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…...

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.

Agree the flannel on the little one is splendid.

Off-topic. Start another thread for the Ultra Tiny Flannel

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.

@Croft will be your first, but def not your last

Well, I received my shirt, and it's definitely a beauty. It's bittersweet though, because the p2p measurements are an inch smaller than what's listed. If it would've been 22", I think the fit would've been spot on. I also have broad shoulders, so even the smallest shrinkage would probably result in it being unwearable. What say you guys? Are the dimensions normally off by that much? I can button the top button, but it wouldn't be comfortable enough to keep that way. I don't know what odds are that I could find someone to trade with me, but spending that much, I'd rather not be on pins and needles about the fit.

If I’m correct the measurements are an average of the shirts received. There is usually some variation but 1” seems like a bit much. I’m not sure if this lot was different because of the overdyed nature of it? Sorry it came in smaller, any chance you can exchange it?

Yeah, the sizing on this one really threw me off. The P2P basically measures almost exactly what a Medium should measure. Exchanging it will probably be next to impossible, since everywhere (including where I ordered from) seems to be sold out. The shirt is extremely nice though, so I understand why everyone loves these so much. I just happen to be 6'1 185 lbs, so I can rarely fit into a medium in anything.
