IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black
-
Wore my 295ib around the house and I just don't get it. The measurements are nearly identical to my ihsh 33 that is perfect(both 3xl). A smidge longer in the back. Yet, it feels incredibly small. The bottom button is barely under my naval. Should I return it? Will it drape better after being worn a lot?

@CosmoSix5 I would be surprised and I have no previous experience with that shirt,but I don’t think that a shirt described as feeling incredibly small,will eventually drape,or in some way fit to your liking. At the end of the day,if you’re not comfortable wearing the shirt you’re no going to wear it and at that point you’ll take more of a loss on the resell than the current return shipping cost. I know we all hate when this happens,but occasionally these things just don’t work out. Good luck with whatever you decide. It happened to me once,and I just returned the shirt and moved on.

Is it small as in tight? Or short in the front. I got mine 4xl which is my standard size and feels very similar to any other 4xl i have from IH.
Def shorter in the front than the 33

Ultimately its a decision you have to make but if you post a picture wearing it i am sure you will get some awesome feedback from the forum members.
-
They look identical lol
-
Bottom pic is 295
-
Lol. I think you are in good shape. Yes they look extremely similar fit wise.
-
@CosmoSix5 I’m not really sure as to what you’re concerned with as I think the 295 looks/fits a little better than the 33.
-
@Jett129 that's what I thought as well. It's the feel I guess. Breaking it in I guess!
-
@CosmoSix5 i get what you’re saying…the 33 and 295 are totally different animals. But the fit on both look great to me. The 295 feels much heavier than the 33, more than the 2 oz. difference would suggest. I think you’ll be happy when you start breaking it in

Snagged a 295 during the sale and it has sat "Stacked" as I waited to return from some travels and decide what snaps to go with. Decision made: Pearl Snaps. Thanks for the help @Kirk .....The stack is released!! Should be here in lightening fast time!!
Now, time to clean the house, finish building that shelf in the kitchen, fix the planter box, dig up that rotted mailbox post, replace that squeaky faucet handle...all the things that will make the wife happy...that should lessen the blow of the brown truck dropping off the green bag.

@Mizmazzle stoked for you man and can’t wait to see them pearly snaps!
edit: your to-do list looks familiar
-
I fully endorse the pearl snap pimp job on the 295 @Mizmazzle, obviously! Look forward to seeing the fit pics. I’m going to give this shirt the attention it deserves come fall.
-
@Mizmazzle dude the 295 is one of the best shirts IH has to offer IMO. Stoked to see your pearl snappies.

Thought I would share my thoughts on washing the 295 since it dropped again recently. I kept it dry for something like 220 wears but honestly it really responded well to water. I highly recommend more frequent washing.
Currently at a little over 300 and have been washing every 30 days ever since.
Side note. She’s definitely prone to marbling.
