IHSH-196- Indigo Check Western Shirt

[manufc10]

Went with my usual XL and so glad I did.  Couldn't have squeezed into a Large.  Shirt looks longer in the fit pic than it is in person for some reason.

Best looking plaid IH shirt ever in my opinion. Very very nice. I'm not home so I had mine diverted to the UPS store. I'll get it tomorrow.

I agree that this is quite possibly the best IH plaid. I missed this 196 train. Congrats to everyone who got one. This'll definitely be another future IH classic, along with the 180. I'd love to see a re-run. Based on the way the 196 and 180 sold so quickly, IH winner with this plaid design.

Hoping to get a fit pick up tomorrow. For the time being here is a quick and dirty with mop snaps.

Thanks man.  Don't get me wrong, the shirt is definitely on the long side which is what I prefer….but it looks s bit exaggerated in the photo.  Not sure if it's the mirror and the fact I'm wearing the 555's which have a high rise and very slim thigh.

Great shirt though, IH killed it once again.  The colors just absolutely pop and it looks great with OD jeans.

MOP snaps look great @Dstauffer

I know it is unlikely, but I hope this fabric gets sewn up into a workshirt.

So some of you guys know that I'm weird and habitually iron (w/ steam) all of my IH gear. I prefer the crisp look on my shirts and jeans, and learned years ago that high heat and a little steam can counteract the slight shrinkage that continuous washing can bring to your favorite gear.

While I do not always see increases in measurements after an iron (w/ steam), I notice that the flannels almost always have a good bit of room to grow, especially after a wash.

For those of you guys in between sizes, and don't want to have to dry on hot, here is my IHSH-196 XL sizing brand new, and after a hot steam iron.

I do not guarantee that I measure exactly as IHUK does, but I consistently measure all of gear the same way, so the sizing differences in before and after are not due to measuring differently, although my measures may not coincide exactly with what IHUK provides.

IHSH-196 XL:
Shoulders: 19.185 -> 19.185
P2P: 23.325 -> 23.65
Opening: 22.4 -> 22.6
Length: 30.5 -> 30.625
Sleeve: 26.75 -> 27

hope this helps someone along the way!

Shoulders and P2P are definitely roomier than the IHUK measurements.

He mentioned above that he specifily asked the crew for the biggest variant in the ordered size, so it makes sense its bigger.

This is thicker than expected and even my wife said how nice it is.  Very pleased indeed.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

@Giles the shirt is incredible! Perfect weight and the colors are beautiful. The shirt feels a little softer than the 193 and has just a tiny more bulk.. I am most pleased. The sleeves are a good length too.  It is a little slim around the belly. But if I gave up beer for a month I'm sure it would fit roomier like I like. I look like I am 4 months pregnant at the moment. 

Thanks a lot. Best plaid shirt I have ever seen! I love it!

Love will lift us up where we belong!

Thanks Matty, it's just the front camera on my Samsung S7. I stand in front of the medicine cabinet because there's 8 incandescant bulbs in there and it gives good light.

sharp fits @wdw and @Filthy - loving the colors on this one.

@Appfaff thanks for taking the time to measure your shirt. I was on the fence and decided to size down comparing it to my 165 - I hope it will be the right choice.
