IHTL-1501 - Extra Heavy Cotton Knit Crew Neck Sweater

[Peter]

Got one incoming, couldn't resist the sale over at Rivet and Hide.. Was a bit hesitant whether to size up or not, but went with my normal size (small). I'm a fan of sweaters without a ribbed hem so I'm predicting this will get a lot of wear. Super versatile. Oh and if the fit is awesome, I'd like to see them in heather grey and navy!

EDIT: This was exactly what I was looking for! The looks of a long sleeved tee, but the weight and feel of a sweater. Being new to this fabric, I wonder how it behaves; stretchy? Shrinkage? Apart from the super tight cuffs, it fits well now.

Can you please, please upload a fitting photo, Peter?! I'm not sure right this moment..

[Peter]

Yeah sure thing! It'll have to wait until tomorrow though, @soundof59

EDIT: Here you go mate. It's a size small, my normal size. Cuffs and forearms are tight atm, hoping/assuming they will stretch. Awesome piece though! I'd love a heather grey and navy one.

Wow! What a pretty nice piece, thanks a lot - now I can imagine a little better. May I ask, how tall you are?
Fit is perfect, I guess

[Peter]

@soundof59 I'm 175 cm (5'9"). It is indeed a nice piece, a lot warmer and more substantial that it looks. And thanks!

Sizing question, if I'm an XL in the IHTB-06 I would likely take the same size correct?
Wore my IHTB-06 today and realized how much I liked the fabric, so a long sleeve version would also be nice.

Yessir

This piece looks great to me.  Simple, built like a tank and very practical.  Please consider pushing for additional colors.  I personally would love to see a maroon variant, as I find that color much more versatile than most reds.

Washed mine today, 40 c, no shrinkage. If anybody was wondering! I never measured it, but it feels the same..

@Giles , only now have I noticed that this is an extant item. This makes me happy. Do you know when a restock is due?

[Seul]

Damn… Bought a size L, with the sole intention of wearing it under my IHJ-14... Sticks out an inch... Will be selling

Really great sweater though... Like a massively heavy duty long sleeve tee...

@Giles is this the same weight as the IHTB-01? I'm trying to decide between this or another (smaller) thermal. And can I buy this now and have you hold it until those black cargos get in, and ship 'm together? I hope this will be soon….

[Giles]

Yes and yes

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Sold this'un to my mate, in case anyone else interested sees this…

Question for those that own this - is the material pretty warm like a sweatshirt or more like a really thick tshirt material?

Love crewneck sweats but don't want the classic "v" stitch under the collar, so this might be perfect. Looking for something to wear under my flannels that I could wear on its own if needed.

Also, has anyone tried throwing this over a collared shirt? Does it look weird cause of no bottom ribbing or does it looks nice and clean?

Thanks,

Adam

Can def be worn as a single sweater or as a extra beefy under layer…

[Peter]

Definitely more sweatshirty, but not as fuzzy. It's quite warm, but won't give you a warming feeling when you put it on. Personally I hate wearing sweaters over shirts, and with this one it could get a bit restricting as the neckhole is quite narrow. That being said, it looks OK if the shirt remains untucked.

I love this sweater though! A heather grey/grey melange (whatever you call it) one would be awesome. Would buy.
