      I just wear the hell out of it. And I have a feeling that sun exposure plays a big role. It’s one of my go to summer tees because of the lower weight.

      You have the OD version too? Got that a few weeks back and looking forward to see how it evolves 🙂

      Use it or lose it.

        @weftyarn I have yet to get one. my size is sold out everywhere. saw the longsleeve, but probably wouldn't wear it as much.

          @weftyarn great evo in your shirt. To be honest, I have worn it only a handful of times. I am guilty of the „saving the good things for later“…
          I still love it and actually plan to wear it more often this summer.

                      @weftyarn I’ve got ss and ls versions of the regular indigo and black indigo and ss only in pale indigo - picked up gradually but I keep coming back to these as the dimensions work really well for me.

                      I find the black indigo quite stubborn but I guess yours will fade if you just look at it for a while 😃

                          @weftyarn Hey Emil…thinking of snagging one of the indigo PBJ tees. How do you size them? I wear a large in IH tees…but also have a medium IH tee that fits nice too on the slimmer side.

                            Also wondering if these get much shrink with a cold wash/ hang dry?

                              @Mizmazzle if this is a general question, I have found the sizing to be pretty stable with cold machine washing and air drying. There’s always the potential for a bit of reshaping while damp if you’re concerned about a particular measurement.

                                @ARNC I’m conflicted between a size 3 and 4. Think 4 is what I’d need. 18” shoulder is my preference with a 26” length.

                                  @Mizmazzle no way could I do a 3! I don’t have any IH tees yet as I’m usually caught in between sizes (I don’t have the body for very slim tees but don’t like them baggy either). I’m usually L, occasionally XL in IH work shirts and a solid 4 in the PBJ tees if that helps.

                                    I have the dark indigo one in Sz 5 and it's a pretty nice fitting shirt, great material. One comment is that the sleeves are pretty damn snug. Not like a dealbreaker or anything but I feel like it's a notable quirk.

                                    @Mizmazzle if I recall correctly you're usually a size down from me, so I'd guess 4 is your size here.

                                        @popvulture oh thanks for the heads up on the sleeves. I don’t like my tees to be hipster tight. I like a comfy fit but not sloppy. Is that how the 5 fits you? Wish IH would make a 1610L in indigo. Love the fit of those.
