IHSH-292-IND - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo

[Crease]

Was recently in Hawaii, went to try to see the sunset on Mauna Kea but only made it to visitor center unfortunately, cloudy but still pretty. My son liked it too!

I found this shirt online and bought it. It's only been worn a few times and has only been soaked once, never washed. Fit is perfect, except the sleeves feel a little tight when bending the arm. Will this get better with use? I have it in size Large. I also have an IHSH-33-IND size XL, and that one feels much better in the sleeves.

For IH sizing charts in general size Large seems OK for me for jackets and CPO, whereas XL generally seems OK for normal shirts. Is that possible, or should I look for a CPO size XL as well?

Hoping its just because the material is a bit stiff in the sleeves when it hasn't been worn and it will get better with time!

@Accuria2 The cut is very different and yes the forearms on the 292 and 293 are on the tight side.
Can you bend your arms completely? If not and it bothers you, go a size up or check out other shirts. I wouldn’t trust it stretching in that area.
If anything, the fabric becomes softer.

[Accuria2]

@weftyarn Yeah I can bend them, but it feels tight when I do it. Bothers me currently, but was hoping it could get better with wear

Dentist today... Iron Armor required though it didn't help . Went for a drooly hike after.

@Crease great photos. I’m always jealous when I see folks who can get the sizing to fit over hoodies.

Alot of OD lately. Back to indigo today.

Is this the best "denim shirt"? I think so but I'm a little biased.

[weftyarn]

Someone else experiencing this on their CPOs?
The edge of the male snap part rips the threads open and loosens itself.

Happens on both my 292 and 293

I can live with it, just wanted to check whether it’s a me problem or a construction topic

@weftyarn i don't think i've experienced this personally but it doesnt overly surprise me in the sense that its an obvious weaker point / high wear area. It would be quite easy for us to remove the snap, darn the area, then reattach snaps if you like - email us, or fill in the repair form if so.

[weftyarn]

@Alex thats great to hear, that you can easily fix it if I want to have it fixed! It’s just a thick area so yes, kind of makes sense that it’s breaking there

@myk1098 Do you prefer hand wash or machine wash?
