    @rodalbird:

    How will this denim fade? with high contrast?
    Thanks!

    This thread for the same denim (in the IH-888S-RE cut jeans) should give you a good idea how this denim fades

      @Peterpiper:

      From staff experience would it be safe to say the longer arm measurements  balance out the smaller shoulder measurements?

      The staff are all over the world at the minute, but from mod experience, and from Sam’s fit pics, I’d say yes.

        So far my pair of 888 is coming out pretty contrasty so I’d say yes. It’s a great denim for sure!

          Thanks @Graham for getting me sorted out today.  I’m really looking forward to this.

              I'm having trouble making sense of the numbers on the fit.  I would normally fit something like an XL and while the chest seems fine–-a bit larger than most that come in XL---the shoulders seem particularly narrow (at 17.8).  Any ideas, input, suggestions?

                Chest is more important than shoulders, imo. Go with the XL.

                  The shoulder measurements are somewhat smaller than is often the case. However the arms are marginally longer, so the sum of the two is the same. The only marginal difference may be that the seam of the shoulder a centimeter narrower than normal.

                  I’m speculating but I imagine it is a consequence of the lining in the sleeves and the blanket lining in the body all meeting around that area.

                  I agree with Chris that p2p is more important than shoulder size for attaining the correct fit, and as such I would stick with my normal size in this shirt.

                    I went TTS.  I sized up for the 106 but those had slightly smaller than typical measurements. I reached out to the IH crew and they confirmed they were going with their normal UHF sizes despite the shoulders.  The longer arms should even that out as previously mentioned.  I’ll let you know when it gets here on Thursday.

                      Spot on sir, The shirt pictured is an XL and fits great over my (pretty much always XL) shirts and also fits great as a stand alone over a tee.

                        True… the 105 and the 106 product Pages advised sizing up too. I think the lining on them was a lot thicker (mo’ thicc?) in the body than the blanket lining on these.

                          Here are some fast fit shots.  I hope to get some action shots in the wild this weekend…

                          TTS was the right choice for me.  I plan on wearing it as a shirt, not an overshirt.  The next size up, a large, would accommodate layering better for me.

                          If you missed out on the previous versions of blanket lined Westerns this one is a must have.

                          This Eco Selvedge is some serious shit.

                            @Matt  great job with the write up and artwork. That’s the CPO fit I love. Looks great, not least with the rest of the kit. Interested to hear how that denim wears in.

                              Pulled the trigger on this yesterday….....breaking strain of an over dunked digestive.........absolutely impeccable piece of work.
                              Thanks Graham and Paula for getting it sorted so quickly.......over and above service as always.

                                    Cheers @neph93……….aye my resolve appears to be inversely proportional to my age (and a sale lol.)
                                    Heading to Aberdeen for the week so the 252 is going to get a proper workout under my IHM-26 - fingers crossed for a cold snap (just not quite Northern Norway cold).

                                          I’ll admit, it is an acquired taste… but after three weeks of storm force westerlies and pissing down rain, it’s a blessed relief.
