      one of the best, i'm with you on this one @neph93 - it's on my want list. maybe i'll have the chance to get one one day but for the moment i think there are enough flannels in my wardrobe.

      Interesting, as this was the one that led me to stop buying UHF’s and pare down my collection. This was so nice that I decided that while all UHF’s are lovely some are lovlier than others, and you can’t wear them all.

      I haven’t bought one since and have sold off others so that I now have this, a purple/black buffalo western, one UHF workshirt and one UHF CPO.

        So given the shrinkage, I’m a little unsure about size.  May I ask, Giles would wear what size?

          UHF’s only really shrink if you wash them too hot. Giles would do XL in this shirt and could still live with any shrinkage that may occur.

                This c/w should have sold out a long time ago. Great score @mclaincausey

                      without going too off topic here @mclaincausey , the 107 green is so sick. Wish the measurements worked for me.

                      Back to topic, great fit on the 155! love the henley underneath too, great combo man!

                        thanks fellas!

                        I wear IH henleys just about every day in the colder months. Gray, indigo, black–I can make one of em work for any short I wear over it 😃

                          New to the forum and I recently went on a buying spree.  the IHSH-155 is the first to arrive.  i sized up one size to allow for a shirt underneath.

                            I'd say that is the perfect fit. I can tell from the jeans you're not new to the game, but a word to the wise, any hotter than 30C on the wash and any tumble drying will lose you som length from that shirt.

                            Nice to see this c/w finally getting the love it so richly deserves.

                                  It has gotten sporadic wear but it has always been a little large. I could fit it over an N-1. In the end I started using it for DIY which softened it up nicely and created some wear.

                                  Then came the critical moment. It had to be washed and I decided to see if I could get some shrinkage through extreme methods. One 60min soak in hot water and one wash at 90C later and it suddenly fits well. In addition the wash really brought out the fading and in fact seems to have accelerated it.

                                    Makes total sense. I really need a denim vest to wear super snug with T-shirt’s this spring… seeing yours today reminded me of such...

                                      I wish I had one a size smaller to do that with. The standard IH-526V is beautiful but I love the mandarin collar on this fella.

                                            It's actually unbelievable that these UHFs ended up in the outlet and are still there for such a long time. I've been eyeing a large blue but found out the hard way that I can't make this size work in UHFs, esp. considering their shrinkage.
