IHSH-409-IB - 19oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo/Black

[northsouthdenimguy]

Couldn’t this also just be normal production tolerance being exaggerated by the 19 oz denim rather than an actual pattern mistake? If the pocket-to-side-seam measurements are basically the same, maybe one front panel ended up slightly narrower, but with fabric this thick and stiff, couldn’t small differences in cutting, sewing, placket construction, or how the panels relax account for that too?

@hugothecowboy this doesn't bug me. I sort of want it actually. haha what are the measurements?

[Tago Mago]

No selling in the product threads please

[Chibs]

I was assuming he would be sending it back to IH first.

If you look at their product shot, it's the same sort of deal with the pockets. It doesn't bug me because they have the same distance from the side seams.

Whatever, I must remain strong and hold out for 21oz Untucked!

There is talk of different spacing to the placket on other CPO threads too (forget which one went into detail), but I think it was because of what @Chibs said...same distance to side seam

@Pointman I had the same thought! I’ve got one with pearl snaps incoming tomorrow. I’ll post some photos once I receive it.

I ordered mine today and tempted to tell them to hold off on mailing it until we see your magic.

First time putting it on n it’s a little tight in the chest compared to my 292 but not to the point where it would bother me. Could only wear a tee n maybe a long sleeve. But love the color!

@Nobunaga not just the Large, my XXL is the same

[GeorgieL]

So i grabbed a Medium and it fit well but was just a bit snug around the upper chest. Would be fine by itself but really wouldnt be able to layer. The other day one of the members here, @oxenbenj sent me a message that he had a Large and saw my post in this thread that I was worried about my Medium being too small while it was in transit. Well he did the opposite so we decided to trade. Funny enough we are both in NYC so we met up yesterday and swapped. Great to meet fellow IH junkies! Here is a pic of me wearing the Large. Perfect fit now, especially if I decide to layer. Thanks again, Ben!

[Pointman]

@GeorgieL Kinda sad you didn't take a video of the two of you swapping CPOs like soccer players swapping jerseys after a game.

[FlavourFade]

@Pointman ecactly what I was thinking haha

[oxenbenj]

@Pointman hah missed opportunity for sure

@GeorgieL glad it worked out and we both have our proper fits!

[GeorgieL]

@Pointman haha, i went back into my office and said the same thing. Shit, we should have at least taken a pic of the both of us wearing them after swapping. Park Ave Iron Heart Shirt exchange.

[GeorgieL]

@oxenbenj Hell yeah! Nice meeting you and I'm glad that worked out for us!

[Dexterous6775]

@hugothecowboy I have the same issue with my L. I sort of feel the same way. I’m torn because otherwise the shirt is gorgeous. I don’t wanna send it back and have nothing but for the price I would want for it to be as good as my other Iron Heart gear. I contacted support so hopefully they’ll think of a good solution for everyone. It sounds like there’s a misaligned template somewhere in the production line.

[CosmoSix5]

Following some posts on here and I agree the chest is snug but still measures where my more roomy shirts are at/around. 23.9" p2p. The shirts unique for sure. I'm very happy with the fit of mine. (2x) 3x would've been to big i believe.

[northsouthdenimguy]

@Dexterous6775

Personally, I don’t believe there is anything wrong with the template. I think if there were actually an issue with it, somebody from IH probably would’ve responded already. Alex, Giles, somebody. Some or all of the shirts are just like this. I guarantee mine probably is, but I’m not going to look at it that way nor measure it. lol

If you don’t like it, I’d just return it. I’m sure somebody else will snatch it up in a second. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, and I’m obviously not speaking for IH, but I think it’s really just a function of a couple different things rather than anything actually being wrong with the shirt.

[harleylawhorn]

@oxenbenj dude! Glad it worked out man! And even better he is from your neck of the woods

@northsouthdenimguy Hard agree, if you want something that's perfectly aligned and machine made, go buy from H&M... I appreciate the craftsmanship of IH and know nothing can be perfect, that's what makes it unique and gives it character.

I got this shirt a few days ago and haven't even looked at the chest, I've just been wearing it and enjoying it.
