@Giles:

What it did was put you in a crap-shoot.

Agreed. I wouldn’t do the crap shoot again.

Mine came today and at first I was surprised how light the package was! Got it open and all I can say is wow, this is a beauty! So soft and not bulky but very sturdy fabric! I think I should be all set on OD green stuff for now!

Thank you @Ross for finding me the exact right measurements. Fits like a glove!

@crease, looks good. If you don't mind sharing, what are your measurements and what size did you get? Did you size up compared to your normal IH western?

[Crease]

Thanks @Jbailla2  ! I went with XXL which is about my usual, I do have one XL that I think fits me just a touch better, but  for the most part I’m a XXL. Really depends on the measurements of each shirt I hate to say! I’m 5’11” about 195 lbs and my chest is about 44” which I typically size off of. I like about a 23.7” to 24” P2P usually. The customer service crew are really good at finding a piece with measurements close to what you want.

This may not stretch or shrink like others have said here, but it does have a slight bit of play in it when you move around it seems like.

Here is what this shirt measured by the IHUK crew:

chest of 24.0'', Length of 30.0'' and sleeve length of 26.6''

No problem at all @Crease, looks absolutely bang on! Glad you're enjoying it

I picked one of these shirts up from Rivet & Hide in Manchester a few weeks back. I'm glad I tried it as I had to go for the XXL over the XL in this one too. Most IH stuff fits me great in XL but occasionly I have to get XXL.

I love the material in this one.

Has anyone washed theirs yet? Or does anyone know if and how this fabric will change over time? I‘ve felt it in store (amazing!), but I‘m hesitating as I‘m not sure how long the fabric will stay as nice as it is.

Don’t have one, but whipcord is tightly woven cotton. On the IH N-1’s it fades slowly and softens with wear. You can expect the same from most cotton fabrics.

It will certainly change with time because that is how IH make their clothes. Generally that is for the better.

I'm careful with mine, only gentle handwash with moderate temperatures so far, hang dry. Want to keep it as it is as long as possible. However, I agree with @neph93 , IH stuff generally ages wonderfully.

With machine washing and higher temperatures I would expect that it will loose a bit of its fluffiness…

Regretted selling my serge olive drab a while back so was happy I found one of these in my size still available. Love the material, fit and color…may upgrade the snaps to copper sometime down the road. The handfeel of the brushed whipcord is fantastic and hoping for more colors down the road.

Nailed the fit @SKT

One of my favourites

Material is too good on this one!

Anyone have any pics of a beat up one of these?

I bought a "Military Serge" second-hand, and the IHSH-330-ODG arrived. Well, I should say, this was one of the best "mistakes". Fabric is incredibly comfy, beautiful, fit in my standard L is spot on, and I can say that shirt became a fav within a day.
Now I want the black one too...
(No seriously, I am super super in love with this thing)

[RobeOfTheMagi]

This fabric is very much underrated. The black one was my first IH purchase.
