IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black
-
@americanathreads that’s the fit I would go for, do you think the XL would be too big? Length, shoulders and sleeve length looks good to me on the large.
-
@americanathreads Looks great in my opinion! But only you know how it feels wearing it.
(And personally I like having shirts with a bit of a different fit, some a bit tighter, some a bit looser. Others may prefer the same fit on everything)
-
@americanathreads That's a perfect fit IMO. Once it breaks in and relaxes, it's going to fit like a glove.
-
@ZackB I think the XL could work too (would've need a shorter sleeve though), as slightly more of an overshirt. Length and sleeve are good, shoulders are just a hair tight, but if it loosens up a bit it might be ok.
@JunkPants thanks! Yes true. Brand new, it feels slightly snugger than I'd want it to fit (after breaking in).
@Go-For-Chill thanks man - appreciate it! Did you find that yours relaxed and gave you a little extra room?
Thanks all for the input! Crucial info for this one
-
@americanathreads I think this fabric might stretch and relax a bit, so as long as you're not washing aggressively or in hot water it should be fine. The initial fit looks good imo.
-
@americanathreads looks spot on right now. I did notice a little shrink when I cold machine washed mine. Nothing crazy. But it did snug up a little.
Btw…how’d you embed that little video clip?
-
@Mizmazzle good to know - thanks! Did it loosen back up after with some wear?
I saw @Go-For-Chill use one in his post in this thread and thought it was a great idea. So I googled a gif creator and used “Free Convert”. Upload a short video and it converts it.
-
@americanathreads congrats. this fit is ace. the shirt is perfect.
-
@americanathreads Mine did tighten up a little bit after the first wash as well. Not much though, and it didn't really change the fit in any meaningful way in my case.
This is such a good shirt, love the 14oz ib in a western.
-
@americanathreads I wouldn’t say that I gained any extra room after breaking in, but it did conform to my body and felt way more comfortable. These heavy shirts always feel a bit cloister phobic to me at first, but quickly conform and become like comfy armor.
