IHSH-62-IND - 12oz Wabash Western Shirt - Indigo
-
@indigo_fades Good to know. I did not exercise patience and opted for the medium. Channeling my Iron Heart sizing by measurement (and not tag), all measurables seem to be right in the sweet spot, save for the shoulder, which was about an inch to half an inch shorter than usual. YOLO amirite?
We'll see how it fits when it shows up.

The shirt arrived yesterday. My first purchase with Iron Shop Provisions, and they were great. I sized down, looking at the measurements, and it seems to fit well... save for the pits. I usually focus on the chest/pit-ot-pit measurement, as that usually ensures I have enough around the body there to make it work, and while this particular shirt measures out well there, the shoulder measurement is a little shorter than normal when looking at other shirts.
I know fit can be a personal preference and that measurements don't always tell the story. How much tightness, if at all, do you tolerate? Or is it a sign of pit tightness that the shirt is sized incorrectly?
-
@Bobcat-Sig this shirt is gonna get some shrink when you wash it...something to be aware of.
-
@Mizmazzle I was hoping you wouldn't say that.
I almost always wash these shirts in cold water, gentle cycle, no spin, and line dry. Is shrinkage expected, even with that level of care?Safety third

@Bobcat-Sig that’s how I’ve ways washed mine too. I recall it coming in maybe 1/2” in shoulder and maybe a touch more in the chest. Wish I had some measurement data for ya. Thought I might have posted my initial wash info back in the thread a few years back.
-
@Bobcat-Sig sorry buddy. Looks like I actually gave mine a hot wash to tighten it up a bit. So you should probably be much better off than I implied. Sorry for the scare.
Here’s my wash data if ya care to see:

@Mizmazzle no worries. I appreciate you coming in and sharing your data.
All these cool and unique fabrics certainly make things more interesting, even if it can be a lot to keep straight.

@Bobcat-Sig “Safety Third!?” You a Panic fan??
-
-
@Mizmazzle Yep, I did that. It shrunk a little, but not quite enough. I wear it as an overshirt now, taking advantage of the extra room.

@ShopatIronHeart Any word of a restock coming soon for these?
-
@NomadCrow unfortunately not at the moment there is nothing on the schedule but we will get them back in, in the future. If you haven't I would sign up for the restock notification if you haven't already, just go onto to the product on the website select the size you need and then enter you email.

@NomadCrow also worth a google search to see if any retailers have them in stock atm

@Tago-Mago Following your advice, I was able to find a XL at Withered Wig. It'll be a a little Christmas Gift for the wife to give to me.... Cheers!
