    the length looks ok but the sleeves not as much. Is this supposed to be washed already? The couple of warehouse tee's ive had have shrunk noticeably in length after a machine wash/dry.

        @pechelman bought it pre-owned, so assuming it's been washed at least once before.

        Agree about the sleeves, will probably keep it but this is the second top I've had from WH where sizing has been an issue... last one (a size up from this) swamped me 😂

        Really take the way IH fits me for granted...

          @T4920 i think you could make that size work pretty well with a layer over it.

            @GraemeE yeah, feel nice under my more cosy and spacious IH shirts 👌

              The sleeve length would bother me, personally, and the body length is borderline

                The shoulder seams come down way too far off the shoulderfor the sleeves to be that short. And if you ever get held up at gunpoint your belly button will get cold when you put your hands up. It’s a strange cut.

                    Looks borderline little small, weird the back is kinda shorter looking. Maybe it will stretch little more for ya, but you can def can make it work. I got a vintage Russell(fits like this) use just to layer but that was like 15 bucks.

                      @Tago-Mago actually, turning it into a shortsleeve shirt isn’t half bad idea. I like the shortsleeve sweatshirts.

                            @GraemeE now that's a strong look!

                            @Matt I thought that about the shoulders too, but it's described as a drop shoulder by Warehouse, so it's by design I guess? 🤷♂

                              Length looks good, sleeves are a little short. If it was me I’d keep it, but size up next time.

                                I picked up this Norfolk jacket from Private White but the cut is a little out of my comfort zone. This is a 5 which equates to a large, I could def not size down in the chest/lat area.
                                What do you all think?

                                        IH1955 how do these fit?

                                        IMG_8957.jpeg IMG_8968.jpeg IMG_8988.jpeg

                                        These are easy to button but the high waist still bit gets in the way of my guts, is that normal? Otherwise they are roomy and nice!

                                          @Ile I have moved your fit check question to here. In my opinion they look big and you may need to size down, however you also mentioned that the rise may be an issue. The 1955’s are meant to sit higher on your waist and if they are uncomfortable for you, you may need to find a cut with a lower rise.

                                          Iron Heart offers many different cuts with lower rises, one of which may fit your individual requirements better than the ones in your picture.

                                          This cut comparison tool may be useful for you in deciding what cut works best. Pay specific attention to the rise and look for one’s lower than your current jeans.

                                          Once again, fit is all subjective and you need to be comfortable.
