IHSH-430-BRN - Slubby Heavy Flannel Check Work Overshirt - Brown

Might need to order S and M on this one to compare...
S would be approx. the same size than my IHSH-402-NAV in "M" which fits nicely and where I can layer t-shirt + sweatshirt under (not an IH one
), but the sleeves are here 63.5 cm vs 65cm which might be too short.Am I wrong or are the sleeves shorter on recent shirt from IH ? I basically ordered the Cotton/Lin from last SS season one size up because of the sleeves length.
Maybe this is intended (no critics here, it's IH choice off course) but I was wondering if it was the case.Could be that this is because the intended look for this one is to be an over shirt in the first place, then that would make sense and I should probably go "M" here, but not sure I can assume the look (not so young anymore
) -
@Slash sleeve length varies from garment to garment (like all other dims), so comparing it to X product is largely redundant as there is no "standard". I appreciate sometimes it does not come out as people hope but generally, it is not a deliberate choice. I suspect you'll be able to find examples of recent shirts that have both longer and shorter sleeves.

@AdamJ Hey Adam, thank you for taking the time to respond, good to know !
And btw, I don't think it's a problem really, I think I remembered a post from Gilles (talking about a ex-colleague) saying that those "non-standard" measures from product to product were also what could make the day of someone, since all bodies are very different really.
Cheers !

I would recommend to not only consider the sleeve length, it also depends on the position where the shoulder seam sits. Wider shoulder and the sleeve can be shorter.

@AdamC Yeah I know you guys would
I have already abused some of the crew member's kindness

I know this shirt is cut different and a different style, but I really have no idea what size to choose. Traditionally I am A xxl (19.5 inches) but in this new cut a xxl is 20.9 inches, so to wear as a shirt shoulders would be a Medium in this. But….as a overshirt would I go L or xl? Is there anyway to show how this shirt fits side by side as in M/L, L/xl, xl,xxl? Or even like a L/xxl? call me confused in California…..lol i’m just not sure how large an over shirt is supposed to be

@jimcord I wouldn't overthink it. Look at the measurements and you can workout what usually works for you in order to achieve a "standard" fit. If this means sizing down one size from your usual size, then do that. Don't be led by the tag size.
I appreciate it's a different fit though. Take a look at this thread. It's the same cut with lots of good fit pics from the team showing how they'd wear it and what they'd usually wear. If you're after a specific set of dimensions let us know and we'll see what we've got!

@catdad1 I reckon I would stick with my usual UHF work shirt size (3XL), feels like there's a little more room to previous UHFs here I'm wearing a wool shirt underneath and doesn't feel too restrictive if I wanted to wear it the 430-BRN like an over shirt, feel like the 4XL would just be too baggy.

@JoshC thank you sir!

@Biecher unless someone asks then probably not, but if there is a certain staff member that is a similar build to yourself and you want to see them in the shirt or any garment I would just tag them and ask them what size they would wear and if they can attach a photo, that wouldn't be a problem.

@americanathreads Graham doesn't work here anymore man. What size are you generally? I'll ask the most similar member of staff to try on for a comparison!
