IHSH-227-IND - 12oz Wabash CPO Shirt - Indigo
-
Will there ever be an 18oz version of this bad Larry ??
-
Unlikely on the basis that there is a 12oz wabash in near constant production and a run of 21oz wabash done recently that may or may not become a permanent IH fabric. Given that wabash doesn’t sell like denim I doubt whether there is a market for anything midweight. Never say never though. It may happen one day.
-
I see in the last post that there is a 21oz wabash produced. Does anyone know if there will be westerns or CPO’s made from this fabric?

Thanks Alex, I guess there is no reason for me to wait then!

Westerns or CPO’s made out of 21oz anything may be a bit much. A type II or work jacket made of 21oz wabby on the other hand… that would be just about perfect.
-
Ya, now that I think about it, a jacket would work better with that weight.
-
It’s a shame lined shirts don’t sell very well because a lined version of this would be great IMO
That being said as the weather warms up my sample is just perfect.

Well that settles it. It’s my birthday today so I owe it to myself to have this CPO.

Many happy returns! Good gift

Just placed the order and pimped the buttons to the black ones. Really looking forward to this one.

Just splurged on my IH 69 (let me rephrase that…), but this is top of my list now. Looks such a stunner.

@neph93 I'll line em up, you knock em over

Any in the wild pics of this yet? I'm undecided between XL and xxl, though sleeve length points me toward XL. Be thankful for the views of those that own this already.

@Stuart.T I own this shirt in a size XL (which, up until now, is the same size I take in all my westerns and CPO's). I am 6ft 1" and weigh 200 pounds (41" measured chest) and this fits me well but is not fitted (which I prefer). I can happily layer this over a t-shirt or thicker thermal. I note that you own the IHSH-211 (which I also own), and aside from the sleeve length being a bit longer on the IHSH-227, the sizing feels similar in the shoulders and chest. One difference between the two that is noticeable for me is the cuff width. It's wider on the IHSH-227 which can exaggerate the feeling of longer sleeves as they can fall beyond the wrist. Overall, I think this is a stunning piece from IH, and will only get better with wear. You won't regret the purchase

Hi @robm thank you so much for such a detailed description. My IHSH 211 sleeves are just about ok, if a little long. The sleeves on the IHSH 227 xxl would just babe too l9ng for me. O know some people would recommend rolling or cuffing the sleeve, but for me clothing either fits or it doesn't. I think I'll have to pass this one up.
@neph93 my XL Wabash shirts have acted completely differently despite the exact same soak and wash regime. Black shrunk more than indigo, and they shrunk in the shoulders and sleeve more than other dimensions. I don't think I'd get 1 " shrink from the IHSH 211…Any thoughts?
