IHSH-227-IND - 12oz Wabash CPO Shirt - Indigo
-
@goosehd thanks Goose. Saw that. Just wondered if anyone had experienced anything different from frequent washing as a large fits me spot on but any noticeable shrinkage over time will make it too small. Saw someone that washed the 33 indigo multiple times and noticed quite a bit.
-
@Gavin666 mine was a bit large on me when I first got it, so I gave it a hot wash ( 40 degrees Celsius). There was some shrinkage--just enough for me--but not yet half a size if I remember correctly.
-
@Gavin666 unless it's over dyed there is shrinkage. Id play it safe by sizing up. You're mtl wearing this over another shirt. Tee, Henley. That figures into the measurements then. You can also add comments to your order for measurements important to you. For example, If I order one it will be 3x and I'll ask the chest measurement is at least the 24.7" at a minimum. Best of luck!

That song "Down with the Sickness" was in my head as I clicked the pay now button.

@CosmoSix5 just when you thought you were out they pulled you back in
-
Well, was worried I would miss up but ordered on the button. Surprised these are still left though but happy.
-
Can't resist an IH CPO, damn things are my kryptonite. Ordered.

I want to take just a second to thank @SamD for teaching me how to properly say Wabash in his restocks shorts.
I always said wàh-baush. Whaa-bash is much better and so it's how I'm saying it. Trying not to add the accent but it's 50/50. -
@CosmoSix5 Ha ha, thanks! Although, I have wondered sometimes myself if I'm pronouncing it correctly...
-
In ordered an XXL. XL fits a little tight but leaves no room for shrinkage if and when I wash it. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with an XXL that will be bigger across the chest and longer in the arms in order to get a better fit?
-
@Iammalone you can get shrinkage out of this fabric if you need to, so get the larger size and wash to shrink. Start at 30C, if you dont get enough shrinkage move to 40C and carry on as such
-
@Alex thank you. Should I wash it @ 30 and then use a drier for :20 min etc? Is this the process?
-
@Iammalone
I wouldn’t use a dryer at all , just hang and let it dry.
before washing turn inside out and soak it until it’s fully wet.
no spin cycle if possible, if not choose the lowest possible.
if a 30 degree wash didn’t shrink it enough, than go for a 40 degree wash , if it’s still not enough than go for a 60 degree. -
@Iammalone I got some shrink in my western shirt, see here
