IHSH-331-BLK - 12oz Moleskin CPO Shirt - Black
-
looking good @Daniel-San
I've got the olive but struggling to put it into rotation. Curious if you've seen any shrinkage on this from the washings? -
@pechelman
no permanent shrinkage . just the normal shrink that comes with washing and stretch back within 1-2 hours wear. So no need to worry if you wash with low temperature. -
@Daniel-San Great pictures!! Do you think this shirt is thin enough to have a tighter p2p than your 292? I’m considering grabbing one a size down from my normal denim size
-
@Memphisakers
hard to tell mate.
it definitely feels thicker and much heavier than I expected for "only" 12oz. -
@Daniel-San well that makes me nervous. If ya feel like pulling measurements on your two and telling how they feel back to back it would definitely be helpful. I know everyone isn’t as nerdy about this stuff as I am, so if not I get it. There is only one place close to me that sells IH and they don’t have one for me to try on.

@Memphisakers
I have the 292 in size L , the 331 is size XL . I would say they are comparable besides the material of course. Think you can expect a little more stretch with the 331 . -
@Daniel-San That doesn’t really help. Ih shirts can vary by over an inch in the same size/same model… was kinda hoping you could measure the P2P of both and give me your impression and the measurements. I know that’s asking a lot. No worries

@Memphisakers
I've got the 293 and the 331 in olive in Large and X-Large, respectively.
The 331 for me is really only suitable to wear over another UHF, which is why I dont wear it a bunch. I find the fabric to drape and crease with less resistance and it has a bit more yield/stretch to it in comparison. The 293 I find breathes better as the moleskin is fairly hardfaced and tightly woven.edit: I also see your request for measurements and can check for you when I get home. Generally, from memory, the 331 is a about 1-1.5" wider in all dimensions and what feels to be about 2" longer in length iirc. It fits very similar to the Large Untucked overall.

@Memphisakers
ah ok did not understand that , sorry
no problem, can measure them tomorrow morning. -
@Daniel-San I’m wearing my 292 today… its a half inch bigger than the 331 I’m looking at. You could give me a pretty good idea if it will work or not by your impressions I bet. I appreciate it brother

@Memphisakers
p2p measurements are:
331 55cm size XL
292 57cm size L -
@Daniel-San right on! Thanks Daniel
I can see that the 292 is 2cm bigger than the 331. It that noticeable when wearing or do they feel roughly the same in the chest due to the 292 fabric being thicker? -
They both feel very comfy to wear, the 331 is of course softer . I would say because of the softness it’s possible to wear it tighter than the 292. But as I said it’s heavy and thick , if I didn’t now it I would guess the 331 is 14-16oz

@Daniel-San that helps man thank you

@akohut I have the 316 Moleskin which is a similar if not the same 12 oz fabric. It softens a bit with wear but doesn't stretch much. It's not as unforgiving as whipcord, but it doesn't stretch like denim either.
To me I like that it keeps looking crisp wear after wear, and the brushed moleskin fabric does not "suffer" from hem curl like denim and other heavyweight fabrics do.
-
Yeah that Moleskin will definitely soften, but if you're looking for it to stretch out you won't get much if any. My shirt fits the same way feels a little snug but looks great so I just deal with it until it softens up some more. The weave on Moleskin is way too tight to see any stretch but is great for keeping the wind out!
