IHSH-427-IND - 16oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo

Size check please on my 427 in size large. It's pretty roomy around my mid section but shoulders are about spot on. Think I should exchange for a medium??

@j3butch1 If you are going to wear it as a shirt, then it does look a bit big…however, a CPO is more like a shirt/jacket (shacket) and supposed to be a bit oversized for layering. It looks like you could fit a flannel underneath it or possibly a hoodie.

It’s all down to how your really want to wear it…down size if a shirt or keep as is for a shacket.

@goosehd I hear ya and yes you are spot on. I can get a flannel or hoody on under it as is. So should probably just keep it I guess as it would be difficult to have the best of both worlds in this piece.

I'm also looking to pick up the 293 OD and would want to wear that as a shirt w just a t shirt underneath. Given the pics above (just wearing a t shirt underneath) would you suggest getting the same size (L) in the 293?
I know measurements should answer my question but on paper, the M in the 427 should work for me.

@j3butch1 It’s all down to measurements and if you have a second, please take a look at this guide: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/923860

You have a baseline to work from with your current CPO and I would look for measurements under your current CPO. Since the CPO you are looking at is OD, there will be zero shrink left and you can take that out of your decision process.

@goosehd So here are the measurement differences for your opinion on me, basically would the difference in size between my size L 427 and size L 293 get me to my desired outcome:

293 size large compared to my actual 427 size L
Chest -1.5"
Waist -.75"
Shoulder -.25"
opening -1.25"
V Length -1"
Sleeve -.5"

@j3butch1 I have moved your post to the 427 thread and we will work from here.

Judging from your pictures, I think that you should be able to keep the same size but worry about the sleeve length as that looks to be the area where you have the least amount of area to lose. All other areas look like you could lose that difference and still be ok if only wearing over a t-shirt.

You could buy the same size and ask the crew if they can find a CPO with a longer sleeve. I have in the past when they have the stock and are always willing to help when and where they can.

If you are going to ask the crew for assistance, you can ask in the order notes, via the live chat on the sales site, or by emailing them: shop@ironheart.co.uk

@j3butch1 I would also suggest adding both shirts to the compare tool on the Iron Heart website. This will give you a side by side comparison of the dimensions

@Tago-Mago Thanks, I've been doing it manually.

What’s your guy’s opinion on this size large… I plan on wearing it over a hoodie or UHF, is it too small? (Last 2 pics are over a tee)

[goosehd]

@Subprime I like the way it looks on you and would not size up.

[Subprime]

@goosehd thank you sir

@Subprime Agreed. Looks great.
