IHSH-422-BRN - 17oz Cotton Duck CPO Shirt - Brown

[jimmer_5]

@Graham and @Alex - Can you offer any specific sizing advice on this one? I wear an XXL in UHFs, and the measurements on the XXL line up with what typically fits me well (trim, but not tight).

That being said, I wonder if I should size up due to the thickness and less forgiving nature of the duck canvas? Thanks in advance, this is kind of my perfect shirt and I've been anticipating this one. I want to get it right.

@jimmer_5
If the measurements line up, then the same size should work. That said, this being a heavier CPO, I’d possibly look to size up to wear it as an over shirt personally, however that is my preference not a hard and fast rule

Are you similar size to one of the crew? Would some comparison photos help? I’m XL-XXL in UHFs nowadays more XXL. 6’3’’ 210lbs. Check out staff vitals for our full measurements:

Thanks Alex - I plan on wearing it as a normal shirt, not an over shirt, so it sounds like my normal XXL will be right.

@jimmer_5 edited above, let me know

@Alex I am 6 feet tall 220 pounds. I don't have a protruding gut, but I'm not an athletic fit anymore. In a t-shirt, my chest is 44", waist is 41", belly is about 41.5"

This is all a reminder that I need to get back on my diet and lose 20 pounds or so.

From the size chart, it looks like the work line (untucked) in size medium would be closer to my fit than this one in large. It’s very similar in chest / shoulders but shorter arms which is great for me. Guess I’m waiting for July

I have waited MONTHS for this shirt, and at the time it goes on sale, I will be in a court hearing. I am going to do my best to make this happen.

[CosmoSix5]

@jimmer_5 I've got 4" on you about the same weight. I've got 2x,3x(majority)as well as some 4x. It's really a case by case system. My 189 is 3x so will this if I pull the trigger. You may run into body and sleeve length issues depending on your specific build.

stockists are in the top post

What's the verdict on shrinkage capability? Searching the forum, I've seen a couple accounts of people hot washing duck and losing about an cm or 2 in length/sleeves, but a lot of folks saying duck doesn't really shrink. Asking because a little shorter would be optimal for where it would fit me elsewhere.

[VegaS10]

@wjw, I have several pairs of the duck pants and the type III. All have been washed numerous times in the machine on the cold setting and air dried. I've not experienced any shrinkage.

[Ross]

@wjw You're not going to see much shrink or stretch with duck, its just not in the nature of the fabric. i've found with my 2526J that the slightly loss in sleeve length is down to elbow creases settling in rather than any shrinkage due to washing

[CosmoSix5]

@Alex I asked to fast it seems. Have been reached out to by Guilty Party and ISP. I really like this forum.

I had no planned to buy anything else until winter but this one if I am quick enough will be

[Ikeaparty]

XXL measurements are looking ever so slightly bigger than my normal XL on westerns which I suspect will work perfect for this shirt, will be buying forsure!

[Niney]

Hope everyone is able to grab this fantastic shirt tomorrow!!

[guiltyparty]

This one is real good

[fuzzybunnies]

Torn on this one as I already have a cpo and the wabash western. This duck fabric looks so robust though...

[Denimminer]

Im torn because I already have the "untucked" version but I really just want it slightly larger because I don't button it up all the way and I feel like I could get the little extra room in this but I don't need it necessarily, just want to be able to wear a heavier shirt instead of a t.
