@Alex Thanks for the clarification. That’s what I remember reading. The confusion was due to typo on the Self Edge site:

This wasn't a typo.. we were told by Iron Heart they were reactive dyed. We've now changed our product page specs as they've clarified they will fade over time.

@kiya No worries. And thanks for circling back.

Yeah sorry for confusion. At some point we trialled a reactive OD process, used on some shirts IIRC, and when we were sampling these I thought the same process was used, things changed and somewhere in the ether the dots were not connected

@CosmoSix5 if you read about 4 posts above Alex talks about doing just that...on the long list of things.

Wasn’t really interested in this as waiting for the ib restock but just looked at the OD and it looks awesome though the chest sizing looks off. I would have to jump from XL to XXXL to get same chest and then the shoulders and sleeve would be way out.
-
@Alex I got to try on the CPO in the OD last week (on the DL) and it is the greatest thing I've donned. Can't wait to own one!

@fuzzybunnies, *can stretch out.
If the denim isn’t stressed it won’t change dimensionally. That’s obvious. But practically, I wouldn't assume that, for example, the shirt will get longer from normal wear. -
@Gavin666 I have been trying to figure out the sizing myself (I am interested in the indigo version) and compared Self Edge's measurements on the 292 to the collab cpo. For my size range they are pretty close to each other yet different than the measurements on the Iron Heart site. Based on the different measurements I would guess that a medium in the indigo version would fit similar to a medium in the 292 on me (i.e. as a shacket rather than a shirt).
I think for the best guess, find your size in the 293OD on the Iron Heart site and then see how Self Edge's measurements for the 293OD and the SEXIH25-CPOOD compare. I bought the 293OD in a large as I wanted to wear it as a shacket and based on Self Edge's measurements I would buy the same size in the SEXIH25-CPOOD for the same fit.
I hope this makes sense as I know my explanation is a bit convoluted. Not fool proof by any means but probably a good enough guide assuming that Self Edge's measurements for both the 293OD and the SEXIH25-CPOOD are consistent across those pieces.

I’m normally a XXL and looking at the OD version.
Having a hard time understanding how most other sizes are around a half inch smaller in the chest, but XXL is reported as 1.5” smaller. This has to be a mis-measurement, right?
I’m pretty certain the XXXL would be too big, but XXL as reported would be too small.
-
@Snafu The OD process essentially shrinks the shirt the most it can be shrunk.
So its essentially the same as the non-OD version hot washed and hot dried.
Being 1.5in smaller than there typical XXL measurement is pretty reasonable/ typical. -

Being 1.5in smaller than there typical XXL measurement is pretty reasonable/ typical.Yea, I get that, I’m just confused about how that particular seems to have had more shrinkage than every other size. Like how did XXXL only shrink .5 inch while the XXL shrunk 1.5 inch.
It makes zero sense to me.
-
@Snafu Yeah you're not wrong. That measurement does look way off. I'd email Self Edge and ask if someone can remeasure the chest in the size you want. Maybe they'll will get back to you before the release.
-
@Snafu remember that the chest measurement is a flat measurement doubled. So being an inch to an inch and a half under means the flat measurement was .5 to .75 less than normal.
So where most other things shrank by .5, this could have shrank .75, seems within the realm

@Snafu Sorry I misunderstood what you were saying.
Let us know if you get an answer from SE about the sizing.
It looks like I need a XXXL instead of my normal XXXL, but I dont want to be swimming in it. -
