@endo:

could be a close thing, delivery dates are always 'guesstimates' 
(I'm also impatient on this one.)

Is this the one we had an eye on in Gosport or was it

this is the super soft one, I'd prefer it over the 331.

@Denimdaddysloth:

Could you please provide confirmation if this is still a September drop?  ???

Confirmation of approximate drop time is only possible when they ship from Japan. The precise drop date and time become available after they get to the UK.

The times given in the release schedule are best guesses.

I will admit to a sigh of relief that the measurements aren’t ideal for my body. This fabric is so beautiful! I hope it sells great so that we can get a work shirt, or even better—a work shirt with snaps.

only in black

[Chesson]

Sorry @Deichvogt It is only Kentaurus in Germany who are stocking the Olive Drab Green. IH Hamburg just has the black.

@Deichvogt Kentaurus received them today. I'm pretty sure they'll ship it to you, but if not I can pick it up for you and send it over.

Will you be able to get any shrinkage out of this material with a hot wash and or hot dry similar to what you can typically get out of the UHFs?

Large is smaller in p2p and shoulders for almost every XL IH shirt I own, and I'm debating rolling the dice there or sizing up and hoping for shrinkage.

Doubtful. This from the product page:

«One washed so little if any shrinkage to be expected with careful washing»

Add to that, that now whipcord IH have made to date has shrunk with a hot wash/dry.

On the other hand, it won’t stretch either.

EDIT: I’ll add that these appear to come up a little small. Olly is modeling an XL and he normally models L.

That's what is also confusing to me. I just pulled the measurements from the IHSH-335-BLK thread where it was just posted that Olly wears an L, but the 5 of 7 measurements for the Large UHF are less than this XL Whipcord shirt. Shoulder and Chest are a full 1 inch smaller on the UHF.

Two things…

1. Length is key. The shirts are equal in length despite the difference in width. Olly is fairly tall and a shorter shirt would look naff. In addition, the shoulder/arm combined isn’t that different, meaning that despite the extra width you risk a tighter fit up top. This is important because of point two.

2. Whipcord is unforgiving stuff. Especially compared to UHF. It doesn’t stretch or relax, at all. You’d see button pull on this shirt a lit rasker than on a UHF.
