      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.

                @Mizmazzle Hey Mark, sorry for the late reply but there’s not much to add to the everyone’s recommendations 😉
                I think 4 would be your best bet.

                Use it or lose it.

                      @gouki74 thanks dude!! That helps a ton. I’m a large in IH too so sounds like this will be the right call.

                          @weftyarn a bit late but I am sharing couple of photos of my PBJ tees. Both of them showing some beautiful fades.

                              I think the colour of this version is called “middle indigo” by PBJ. I have seen the “sunburnt” version but this one is different.

                                @Cskarev how’s the neck collar on these holding up? Have checked out the Tanuki indigo t-shirt?

                                  @bluemantra the t-shirts are very well made and I haven’t noticed any issues with the neck collar. Even more (maybe I have to share some more detailed photos) - the neck collar is maybe my favourite “zone” of these tees as the best fades till now can be noticed in the zones around the neck, the shoulders and the lower end.

                                  I also have the Tanuki indigo tee. It is not very easy to compare it with the PBJ tees because the Tanuki tee is much heavier. I wear it less than the PBJ tees but it is also quite good in terms of quality and texture.

                                    I have to say the collar on these PBJs holds up very well! Starts off a bit tight, but relaxes over time for a comfortable head entry and stays in that shape going onwards.

                                    Use it or lose it.

                                      The sun’s out and I’m putting away laundry so here’s a gratuitous shot of my black indigo and regular tees (approx 9 months/3 years occasional wear). My phone doesn’t quite capture the colours right, but no editing except cropping.

                                          @DeeDee85 thanks. No special knowledge, but I expect R&H will have them back in stock before long.
