IHSH-264-NAV - Ultra Heavy Flannel Ombré Check Western Shirt - Navy/Black
-
To all the UHF pros, how much does the chest and shoulder shrink after a few washes? I'm usually a size medium in all IH shirts, but I worry the UHF will shrink to the point that it starts pulling at the snap buttons. Then I would just look silly.

I think I too would fit the L better out of the box but I'm counting on the bit of shrinkage that will come with wash over time. I went for the XL in the western though I was all betwixt and between with the work version. It's good to have hard choices like this.

If you wash on 30C and air dry then there will be zero to minimal shrinkage. If you wash hotter you will lose around 1cm/ half an inch in the chest and shoulders. More in length. The safe bet would be to buy a large and hot wash it. I personally take the same size and wash carefully.
Either way use the compare function and check the dims against an IH shirt you own. These come up a shade smaller than many IH shirts, so L may be best anyway.

Just placed an order.
Waiting to hear back about confirmation.
Adrenaline rush in full effect–-Confirmed

You have no idea how much I am looking forward to this
Placed a beast of an order….Just crossing my fingers that my girlfriend will be working when its delivered.
Not that it would cause any problems---but in these Rona times, less is more--as in drama.
Is it wrong that we are in month 7 of 2020 and I still have a few items left on my " To Buy" list?

I will be on full alert status until delivery is a reality.
No reason why it won't be…..

I hope you realize that you have put together the " Dream Team "
Your service is stellar

Just picked this up. It might be 80 degrees in Los Angeles but I’m dressing for the weather I want, not the weather I have.
-
Even if its only in the early mornings–or late evenings when it cools off...this one will fit right in.
It looks very " Californian " -

You’d do well in northern Norway. Folks here wear shorts because the calendar says May. The average temp in May is 7C.
Gives a whole new meaning to aspirational dressing.

@neph93 there should be a program where people in cool cimilates can switch houses with people in warmer climates in order to wear the clothing they desire. If I had my way, I wouldn't ever wear shorts, but I say that as someone who could probably wear them year-round.

Interesting idea… I'd probably decline. I tend to have a holiday in a warmer climate once a year. The only reason for doing that is to experience a different culture, food, scenery, food and food. The temps are largely irrelevant. Because food.
As far as shorts are concerned it is one of my favourite things about Norway that I can avoid them entirely. I deeply fear global warming, not least for the havoc it will wreak on my comfortable short-less existence. The closest I come to shorts is rolling up my IH-814's. This only happens if the temp is over 25C.

First UHF and it’s everything I thought it would be.
Now if the weather would just cool down
