IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

@weftyarn it suits you very well my friend , I listened to you and I also took an S, I think that in this case it is better to go with a slightly larger size than usual

[long_john86]

Also went with normal size. Shoulders, chest and length seemed typical compared to other XXLs I have. I haven't accounted for the fabric though, as I am a newbie to sashiko so maybe that will trip me up. Just hoping the crew can source me an extra metre in the arm length

[kkibbey23]

I’m excited for this.

[Mizmazzle]

@long_john86 I requested a bit of extra arm length too...see how that goes.

[popvulture]

@Mizmazzle lol maybe the first extra arm length request in IH history!

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture ahaha...it's probably true! I'm trying to account for what I think might be some decent arm stacking going on...

[weftyarn]

If you guys are not on the very big end of a size you should be fine with TTS. Most of my Work Shirts are XXL. Only exception is the Untucked that I just got which is XL.

@popvulture For reference I’m 194cm and 94kg

[popvulture]

@weftyarn thanks man! Hm we’ll see what’s up — you’re actually a couple inches taller than I am and about 7lbs more, so there’s a chance I could end up needing an XL. Like I said based on the pics though, seems like XXL could be the way for me. Psyched to see however it turns out, and if it ends up being too big, it’s all good. I’ve got way too much stuff anyway haha.

Well these sold fast. R&H have stock in each size. How come some people are showing pics of them wearing it beige it was released?!

@Gavin666 Party attendants had dibs

[Choko]

@Gavin666 they got them at the iron heart party over the weekend

If I'm 6'1" 230, take an XL in the DR CPO and XXL in UHF Western/Work, should I go XXL or XXXL on this anyone figure?

Edit: Just realized I typed XXL twice. Second one was meant to be XXXL...

I’m 5’9 200LBS with 43” chest
Same size as ironshopprovisions Josh

Wear a XXL in western and XL in my dobby work shirt and chose XL for this.
I was almost tempted to size down until people on here said size up to just went with TTS

[Watty]

@99Tjadams Makes me think you're recommending the XXL then, eh?

Guess I'm just wary as people here have said size up and now both SOP and WF have said they find it running small....

[99Tjadams]

@Watty
I’m not a sizing expert, I keep a list of the sizes of my clothes and how they fit. When I was closer to 215lbs I’d be considering a XXL.
-edit, just noticed you were considering XXXL not XL. Hard to say in that case. I was just thinking XL would be way to small for you.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

I’m in thanks to rivet and hide

[Watty]

@99Tjadams Fair enough, thanks for the insight. I've tended to size "aspirationally" in the past and it's bit me in the ass a few times, but hoping to drop a few more pounds in the near future, so maybe the XXL isn't too crazy here.

Most of my other stuff is in line with the XXL measurements.

[Mizmazzle]

@Watty hey buddy. I always wear the same size as Richard from Withered Fig. He took a large in his model shots and I also went large in this shirt.

He does mention sizing up but he’s referencing form normal American brands sizing compared to Japanese sizing.

[indigostiff]

Just curious, since this is a 21 oz. shirt, does it have the same heft as the IH-526J 21 oz. Type III jacket? To me, that would be a selling point. Thank you.

[Watty]

@Mizmazzle Thanks for weighing in, I guess I was more focused on that he said his measurements were coming in smaller than IH's in general, so his XXL was coming out "smaller" than their 24" chest measurement, for example.
