IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black

Does anyone notice much of a fit difference between the BB and IB? They look a little different in the measurements, but seems small. Thanks

@jpvisual I tried a BB two days ago to try and help gauge sizing. In the L and XL I tried, I found the L to measure pretty small and it was too tight. XL was perfect. I ordered a Large in the IB yesterday as the measurements more closely resembled the XL BB I tried. So I think the IBs are running a little larger this run than the BB.

Anyone have luck shrinking these? It looks like I'm close to an XL, but I would like to layer under this so would you recommend an XXL and warm soak/wash for a looser fit?

@DirtyMike619 Did you read this part that they highlighted in the fabric focus?

[Luijim78]

@jpvisual I love them both and find them extremely different. In the same size (XS) the b/b is much tighter and drapes perfectly on the body from day 1, the i/b is more relaxed, crispier and stiffer. The i/b fades much more easily and quickly.

@Luijim78 thanks!

[DirtyMike619]

@Faded_Patina Yes, I read that, but that's based off their recommended washing method. I'm moreso asking if anyone has done a hot soak and dry to intentionally shrink it

@Go-For-Chill isn’t that illegal these days?!

[Gavin666]

@Faded_Patina depends what temp you wash them on though. I found with a couple of 40’c washes my IHSH33 shrunk very slightly.

[Go For Chill]

@Gavin666 Nothing is illegal as long as you don’t get caught.

My b/b shrunk quite noticeably after a 40 degree C wash. I’m curious about the shrinking potential of the i/b too.

295 arrived today from hamburg and I could not be happier. While the BB I had was a little too snug in XXL the ib fits way better. Also it's a lot crispier than the BB, reminds me of the 362 in terms of feel. Now I will have to decide if I will wear it or stash for fall

[PJ]

@FlavourFade looks like a perfect fit. Can you really wait until autumn

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade heck yeah its one of the best shirts IH makes IMO. Wear that thang mane!

[FlavourFade]

@Oaktavia I am working on a tfh type2 right now but the 295 will get a lot of attention soon

Just got mine what a beauty pictures don't do it justice.

[V-P]

Here’s mine. It feels great, a little stiffer than the 295-BB like others have said.

@V-P great pic you really caught the colour.
