I’ll try to do it this evening, still sitting in the closet unironed…

@Slash

Not ironed and no time to take measurements but to me it looks like it “tightened up” from the shop pic. Slight shrinkage?

Edit: I also know there’s been a comment about it being boxy, but this is one of the least boxy shirts I own. On my personal box-to-boxy scale, it barely even registers as a box.

Did you go with your normal IH shirt size?

@samo I sized up from XL to XXL and did a hot wash for some shrinkage. I’ve been happy with the results

[northsouthdenimguy]

@samo

This is four XL, which is typically what I take in all CPO’s

I’m typically a 3xl or 4xl in shirts, but finding lately 4XL sizing fits better more often than not.

@paulmtg @northsouthdenimguy thanks guys. I went with my normal size and I’m not sure about the fit. It’s a pretty stiff fabric so maybe it needs to get worked in a bit to fully judge it. I was contemplating sizing down but sounds like you guys did the opposite.

@samo

I always look at the measurements, If the chest doesn’t work I have to size up. That’s my number one measurement.

@northsouthdenimguy thx man for the info. Difficult to say if it did shrink with the pictures, but I'll probably just wash it cold to be sure

Looking forward to wear this ! When the heaywave has passed

@northsouthdenimguy great fit!! I was able to try it on too and I agree that while the measurements may suggest it, it's not boxy at all. But for me the armpits on XXL we're a little tight and in 3X other measurements too big that are important to me so I decided to pass on this one. But it's an amazing shirt for sure, if it were a western or work shirt I may have just snagged it anyway

Well, that makes CPO number 4.
Im digging the texture, never knowingly owned anything Dobby before this and the mechanic shirt version. I’m really hoping this doesn’t pill too much.
I suppose time will tell

@Rustygate37 looks amazing! A few places still have this torturing me

[will6er]

@CosmoSix5 Agreed. Luckily they are mostly not my preferred size. Mostly.
