IHSH-411-BLK - 9oz Selvedge Indigo Check Flannel Western Shirt - Black

[PJ]

I went to see it IRL and try it on. Freaking awesome piece. I somehow convinced myself to walk away from it . Probably gonna regret it but I just picked up the 413 and patiently waiting for some other IH stuff getting restocked. Kind of proud of myself I won my internal fight against FOMO ️

@PJ that is impressive willpower

FOMO hit me so hard on this one I accidentally ended up ordering 2 XXLs!!!

[Tobi]

@PJ well done! I was not that strong... At least I refrained from buying more stuff I don't need while I was there....

[Ikeaparty]

Pumped to see how this fades, wore it for a long walk in the city and ended up with a heavily indigo crocked neck!

@Tobi this is how it’s done. Gotta go in with blinders and a laser focus.

[PJ]

@Tobi I might end up being very envious next time we meet and you wear that beauty

Absolutely loving this shirt!

Picked up the only XXXL today from Berkeley Supply. I see some really cool fade potential with this one.

@Shaun this looks so bad ass!

Has anyone ever had a IH flannel shortened? Its about 2cm longer in the back than other IH flannels I have and its driving me nuts, usually an XL but XL in store was too tight P2P so went XXL, more I wear it around though the more the length in the back annoys me

[yannis]

@Ikeaparty. Depending how it fits everywhere else it will shrink with a hot wash and loose length. Something to consider.

[Ikeaparty]

@yannis yeah could be slimmer everywhere else by a hair, somewhere between the XL I tried on and the XXL would be ideal so might do a warm wash, not sure how much color would be lost though so will likely hold off as long as i can for that

[yannis]

I have shrunk a 9oz before considebly, specially in length and width. I don't think you will loose that much color in one wash. I couldn't tell the difference when I did it with mine. And you you put it in the dryer you can shrink it more.

QFT. I’ve had the same results

[Ikeaparty]

Awesome this is good info to know thanks guys!

[SourPower]

@Ikeaparty also want to call out that the size guide for this product states “One-washed - no shrinkage expected”. Worst case if the length is bothering you, a good tailor should be able to take care of it and will be well worth it to get the fit you want.

[Shaun]

@SourPower I couldn't agree more. Such a slick shirt and as always "Upgrade" is an understatement

[natefreezy]

Just got mine in my typical IH size and the forearms are a little tight. Is that something that will loosen up over time or should I consider going up size maybe? Otherwise fit is slim but seems good, would be an issue if it shrinks on cold wash though.

Picked mine up today from The Shop Vancouver and it's an absolutely beautiful piece. Be careful though as it does seem to be running small as mentioned by some others. I've had a great fit with XL in every other IH flannel/shirt I've purchased but had to go up to XXL in this one.
