Mine will arrive tomorrow…:)

Since this is L, i soak in a warm water for 1 hour to prevent it to have too much shrinking.. Fit me comfortable, but if it shrank more, it will be too small for me. Lovely shirt. Definitely better that IHSH-33 IMO.. Still crispy though.. Thanks G&P

Careful mankarat
When you machine wash
Even cold temp
This shirt likely to shrink more

I agree, mine did most of its shrinking in the washer. The first soak in the tub did shrink it but it definitely lost some more in the washer especially in length.

Then I might only handwash mine. Don't want any further shrinkage…

[mankarat]

i'll do the same..no machine wash..

The fit looks really good mankarat.  But I need you to elaborate on this:

I have the IHSH-27 and am currently sitting on the fence about the IHSH-33 

[mankarat]

Thanks for the kind words Omega Man.. This is just my opinion.

27 feels crispy.. maybe because of the raw state of it while 33 is one wash. 27 denim have a tighter woven than 33.. I cant give an accurate measure since my 33 before was XXL and 27 is L. I feels like i need to wear this often to make the denim drape to my body while on 33 it doesnt takes long time for the shirt to mould into your body. Its a different denim feel between those two. 33 have advantage for people that worry about the post shrink issue. I also will grab 33 in my size in future. Its like having 2 variant of Denim shirt.. But if you're on the fence about the 33, just grab it you wont regret it..

Thanks mankarat, your comments are most helpful.  BTW, you need to save some $$ (aside from the IH "addiction" ;D)…..your family is growing.

[mankarat]

Definitely! Have to work harder to gain money for more IH addiction plus a new family member..

[Seul]

Haha it stacks all the way to me wrist… Craziness!..

Haven't worn this lately due to the summertime weather. . . but figured I'd take a picture and compare it to Giles' original pic on the first page.
