      Hey guys, I know the blurb on the IH site about the 75 reference shrinkage. Just wanted to know how she went out in the field amongst users when washed?

        And should I say washed a few times perhaps. Most on this thread are quoting G's blurb. Which I btw do not dismiss. Just broadening the scope of info.

          ^Scott unlike the 53 that this shirt derived from the 75 is not raw. It has been rinsed so shrinkage should be minimal.

            Cool mate. I never had the 53. I'm still green in the IH sphere of operations, but I'm slowing getting blooded.
            Its an expensive addiction. Maybe I should have just tried smack! But perhaps the high don't last as long as IH 😉

              All good mate, we're an understanding bunch. In no time you'll know your 33 from your 53 from your 75. It just happens with time. 🙂

                    This shirt is epic. Im pulling the trigger, but I'm very much in between sizes. The medium is almost perfect, and the large is a touch wide in the shoulders and p-p. Any thoughts? Is there any stretch after some wear?

                      I went medium after returning a large. You can get a little shrinkage if you want it, But the boognish will help you through it (only some of you will get that)

                        I went with the large. Overall i'm very happy. Had to reinforce some buttons. Has anyone tossed one of these in the dryer? I know blasphemy, but I am looking for some shrinkage. Would a hot water soak accomplish any of this?

                        Ohighyo- thanks mang

                          You should get some shrinkage if you pop it in the dryer (inside out), it is the agitation of a soak/wash/tumble that will give you the shrinkage…

                                          thank you.  it's all the shirt.

                                          if you are in the market for a workshirt i think this one fits the bill nicely.  i'm waiting to see if i'm still crazy about it in a few months before i sing it's praises more.  i am forcing myself to take an insane amount of images of this shirt  as it ages to correctly document the process.  if you aren't sick of me yet, you will be in a month or so . . . .
