      I can wear an L, but I prefer a looser fit on the UHF's as a general rule, plus I have a little leeway if I manage to shrink it….

        I check chest, then length, then shoulders. Generally I can go 57-59cm in chest, 75-79cm in length and 48-50cm in the shoulders. Anything outside of those parameters is likely to irk me in some way.

        same here but I also factor in sleeve length. I have a 38" chest so my range is about 22" to 22.5" chest for a size large. Giles is a few inches taller than me and maybe 10 lbs heavier so I can see why he'd need an xl in a lot of the UHF's. Some people size up and some don't.

                I have to say that i've started to warm up to the 127. I used to think buffalo check patterns were very pedestrian but the more I look at these the more I like them, especially the green. I call it the IH effect – if you look at something long enough it grows on you.

                  This is a thing.

                  Tbh, I own two buffalo checks, and while they seem simple in principle (regular squares, two tones), IRL the weave is gloriously textured and structured and lovely to look at as well as touch.

                    I think it's because buffalo check patterned shirts are so common in the US, which is why they initially didn't interest me. But, I like UHF's and the green version looks nice.

                      Size L. Boots (nearly 5 year old Alden tobacco calf plain toe, once resoled by Brian Truong) are a favorite of late, though I'm only wearing the right boot for the pic and am otherwise in an aircast for a couple more weeks. Jeans (pbj xx-020s) still feel a bit too skinny after first wash. Good thing marathon training will start back up in a couple weeks.  😛

                                    Had to sell all my IH shirts a few years ago due to weight loss. Today I popped by my local IH dealer after lunch just for fun, tried this one on and you all can guess what happened next  😉 It just felt too good not to buy it. Also wearing my almost 7 year old 634s'.

                                    AIAN HA-TO!

                                          So, this is definitely a bit of a necro thread to resurrect, but I guess my question applies to the UHF fabrics in general.

                                          I have one of these in purple XL. How much could I expect it to shrink with a hot machine wash and hang dry? The shirt was always a tad big on me, and I've lost some weight since getting it, so I wouldn't mind if the shirt were to shrink an inch in all dimensions. Having never washed one of these on hot though, I just figured I'd double check it wouldn't be any more than that. Doubtful but good to be safe. Thoughts?
