IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
Got my CPO in XL yesterday and absolutely love this fabric.
Nonetheless I'm on the fence regarding sizing: as you guys can see on my pics, length of body and sleeves seems perfect for me. But it feels a bit tight in the chest area as well in the sleeves, so definitely no stuff for layering. Since I have planned to use it more for transitional season, that might work out so far.
So I consider to size up to XXL, but there I know the sleeves would be too long.
What would be your recommendations?
-
Only layering a t-shirt is fine, but if it's actually uncomfortable in the chest and/or arms I wouldn't keep it. They won't really give and you probably won't wear it much long term.
-
@Domi in your second photo, you can see where the creases at your arm pits are showing, indicating it is too narrow there. that'll stay uncomfortable in the long run. i'd get in touch with the crew to ask for an XXL with shorter than usual sleeves. if they can find one for you, that would be the best choice.
-
@tody I can see clearly what you mean. That is exactly how it feels: snug in the arm pits. Guess it would stretch out a little with wearing. But I will follow my feel and size it up to XXL.
Thanks for your hints!
-
I did just email the team and see what was left for the tag Ls since I sized up and just feel this XL is too big. So either way it's coming back if anyone needs an XL be on the lookout -
What an amazing shirt, and very happy with the fit. Thanks again to the team at IH for coping with my sizing requests, highly appreciated!
-
@weftyarn perfect looking fit, congrats!
-
@weftyarn do you mind sharing your height, weight and approx. chest size?
-
As far as sizing goes, I'm a Large in UHF and I went XL in this after hearing reports that it runs a bit small. XL would work, but was a bit too big. I ended up buying a Large as well and it fits perfect. I can fit a hoodie under it just fine and it also looks good with just a t-shirt. Just a data point for anyone thinking of sizing up.
-
@samo Thank you. I’m waiting for mine to arrive but I went with my UHF size as well. The measurements just seemed perfect. Hoping it works out
-
@Brandrea hope so too!
-
That's looks really good. Second guessing myself not grabbing a large now. My usual size, that XL was just too big.
-
@Brandrea 194cm, 100kg (most of it on the thighs though) and typically 60cm p2p works well over a tee, 63cm works over a sweater / jacket like fit
And I have a relatively long torso (102cm sitting hight) / shorter legs for my size
Don’t really know my actual chest size measured with a tape
Edit: Wearing 2XL in this for a trim fit over a tee, no intent to wear like a jacket
-
@weftyarn very helpful, thank you. I’m feeling better about my size. Now it just needs to get here ….
-
I’ve been wondering if this is little big, wanted more of tshirt vs shacket fit, but seems ok in photos?
-
@natefreezy That looks like a great fit to me.
-
@natefreezy looks great man. it'll drape better with wear.
-
@natefreezy you wouldn't be able to size down. If anything, you could give it a hot wash and dry to bring it up and in a bit. To me it looks perfect as is.
-
@natefreezy It looks great to me!
I just noticed, we did the same thing with the GA button! Looks great!
