      I'm struggling with this one too. I love it, but the arm length is bugging me. I don't want to have it tailored, and if I take measures like hitting the sleeves with hot water from a kettle I worry about resale as well as the arm holes becoming too small.

      Have you worn it for a while?  Usually creasing in the sleeves cause them to shorten a bit.  I would suspect that wearing it while damp would cause even more creasing.

        sizing for me was tricky for me too as I noticed the extra lengths in the arms. Went a size down from normal UHF and I'm really counting on the OD having taken the shrink out and it relaxing a bit as my others have, because if it shrinks at all in the chest, it likely wont be comfortable for me.  Somewhat wish I had ignored the sizing chart and blindly ordered the usual XL but I think it will work. It certainly looks tailored to me right now in a good way.

        Also, i dont think it's been mentioned, but there's a unique smell to this UHF that the other UHFs didnt have when I got new, that is somewhat pleasing to me, perhaps from the OD? Smells like cozy warmth :D.

        Even the normal UHFs barely shrink in the chest with a 30 deg wash.  I shouldn’t see any shrink for this one.

          Agreed.  Mine has creases setting in and the arms are just about perfect now.

                  Use the Want to buy thread in the marketplace. You’ll get more eyes on it and we keep the product thread clear of trading chat. Thank you.

                    In addition to what neph said, you should check the sales threads in the marketplace.  This shirt is available right now.

                      I swayed a lot to and fro this shirt since its release, but then I happened on an Instagram post from Aitora in Spain about "a second chance on an instant classic" I could not resist 🙂

                      They still have "L" listed on their website.

                      Hope it helps

                        I managed to pick one of these up in an XXL from Brund about 7 weeks ago, when it was pretty much sold out everywhere. It's a great shirt. It fits me perfectly apart from the sleeves, which are maybe about 0.5 to 1 in too long. Has anyone managed to shrink just the sleeves on one of the UHF shirts before? If so, how? Could the sleeves only, be soaked in hot water maybe?

                          As much as I love it, this has been sitting in my closet. “The sleeves are too long,” I thought. I didn’t want to have it altered and I didn’t want to sell it. I experimented with doubling back and snapping the cuffs but didn’t like that either.

                          Today was the day I said “fuckit,” and really they’re not that bad or even as long as my UnTucked.

                          It then warmed up, allowing me to finally pair with UnTucked as I’ve wanted to for a while.

                          Think it, be it.

                            I like that it has to "warm up" for you to wear a 17oz duck shacket over a 13oz UHF 😃

                            Also I personally think those look great on you size wise and that combo is of course great.

                              Thanks @pechelman and I've gone from conflicted to excited about the shirt.
