IHSH-380-IND - 12oz Dobby Cloth Work Shirt - Indigo

[ARNC]

It’s here! First impressions are the fabric is stunning and the sleeves look doable.

After trying on, I think it works and @tody’s comments are spot on. Don’t think the wider body will be a problem (although not something I usually like) as the fabric drapes well. Anyway, I think it’s a keeper (but dissenting opinions welcome).

Edit: forgot to credit @JoshC for his help with measurements.

Plus sleeve detail - if it helps my arms serve mainly to maintain appropriate separation between my hands and body!

[tody]

@ARNC Looks spot on to me.

@ARNC Looks prefect, Andrew.

Now you have a Dobby shirt for every season! This Sashiko is extra special though...

@Luijim78

Looks terrific!! Do you think the fabric would be a pet hair magnet?

The shirt has arrived! It’s a true gem and definitely something else then the other shirts in my closet! Arms work but are a tad smaller. Tomorrow i’ll post some pics!

@Heavy_blue Congrats! I"m looking forward to the flood of new photos of this beauty. My arm width on mine was only 5.1'' when I ordered my medium, so I painfully cancelled my order. I was going to order the CPO version on Monday, but went with the 292-IND CPO. Ordered last night. I will have the weekend to ponder the 389-IND CPO.

@stichdown-shell nice choice!! Hope you’ll like the shirt mate!

More observations after a couple of days of wear.
The creases on the forearm are really interesting and one of a kind. You can see it in the pictures from @Jcaz6996 how they will form and fade, mine are already setting in, too.

The work shirt button issue is still present, though. You can see it at the upper button, that is nearly undone from just sitting on the couch.

[ARNC]

@tody interesting. I’ve never had that issue with work shirt buttons. I like that the buttons on this shirt are thicker than the usual ones, which are sized perfectly for insertion between my fingernails and the nail bed!

How are you adjusting to the wider lower body?
