@boutsk thanks for the response! now lemme ask, do you have a UHF in size Large? if so, how does the fit compare to the CPO?

Unfortunately I don't have any IH UHF. I have the ihsh-33 denim shirt and fit is very similar. Maybe 293 is a bit shorter

[pechelman]

trust the measurements and also be patient with it. The 18oz is a bit more stubborn and stiff compared to a UHF where it may not be comfortable right away for you. I've got a Large in the 293 and a variety of Western UHF's. Most are XL (so I dont need to worry much about how I wash/dry them) but also at least a couple L's. I'd say the 293 fits pretty comparably in the chest/body to those Large Western UHF's, especially the overdyed anniversary flannel from a couple years back. For me, the 293 is generally my most "tailored" fitting piece with very high arm holes and the thicker/stiffer fabric making it look and wear a little slimmer.

after alot of consideration, I just pulled the trigger on an XL from The Shop Vancouver. I do plan on wearing it over a hoodie or flannel so I figured sizing up was the safer bet. I had TJ send me the narrower of the two he had in stock. fingers crossed!

[cbmyles]

don't think I could have got a better fit on this one! looks great with a tee and can fit my uhf or a hoodie underneath. stoked for fall!

[Graham]

Lovely!

Happy new shirt day! Bring on the fall.

@cbmyles goes well with your look too. I'm ready for fall as well, I dig the spooky skeleton on your door.

@tody Nice one, one of the best shirts we make IMO

[Jan_L.]

@tody did we talked on eBay kleinanzeigen this morning?

[weftyarn]

yay, congrats @tody
XXL?

[tody]

@Jan_L looks like we did!
@weftyarn XXXL, that's what I have in my 177.

I also picked this shirt up in the Self Edge sale. It will be my first Iron Heart item.

Hope I sized right, went with medium at 5'10" 145 lbs, 38" chest. I'm usually in between small and medium in most brands.

[Oroccoco]

@Easystride medium sounds right. I'd like to be a fly on the wall when you first handle it. It's at the heavyweight end of the spectrum even for IH!

[Easystride]

@Oroccoco haha! I'm looking forward to it! I've been fading the 13 oz Gustin heavy Japan black work shirt for about 4 years but the button holes are starting to get shot. Figured it was time to take the plunge and get an IH with snaps.

Self Edge already shipped my order! Can't wait to try it on, I'll have to post some fit pics.

[Oroccoco]

@Easystride no durability worries with this one, it's indestructible if you're not drywalling in it. Have fun with it!

[Easystride]

Got my shirt today and I have to think I got the sizing right. Man, this thing is amazing. My first IH item, and I'm gonna wear the heck out of it when it finally cools off.

[Easystride]

@Mister_Brue I am constantly reaching towards where my pockets would be on my other denim jacket. Gonna definitely be hard to go back. I can see some more CPOs in my future but gotta give this one some love first.
Maybe my next IH purchase would be jeans or pants though... I've gone down a dangerous rabbit hole

[Mizmazzle]

@Easystride nailed it!!!

[RubyRae]

@Tobi Looks good! I had similar experience with sizing. The indigo overdyed black have a tendency to be a bit tighter than others. Mine is starting to see some rotation and break in a bit. I'm typically not big fan of work shirts but starting to grow on me. I like this one a lot.
