      @arcanum:

      Thanks G. How does the new plain tees fit you compared to the old ones ? Also did you change the sizing chart of the old plain tees ? i remember the chest size of old plain tee in medium was something like 101 cm ..

      i am really lost on the sizing because the old tees fit just right at the moment, i dont want it any tighter and apparently the new tees is slimmer on the chest which makes me think to size up to a large, what do you think ?

      I have not changed the sizing chart on the 7oz.  But I have just laid a 7.5oz over a 7oz and the only visible difference in sizing is the length.  Despite what the sizing charts say, the L in the 7.5oz is about 2cm longer than the 7oz.  I'll measure a few up later and take an average and then update the sizing chart.  G

        I think I know what the issue is.  I think that the measurements on the old 7oz Tee's were not accurate, we're just going to measure a few of the old ones.  G

          OK.  So me and Mrs G have just spent the past half hour measuring Tee's.  We have updated both the 7 and the 7.5 oz Tee sizing tables.  Bottom line.  New ones have smaller chest and are longer.  However, I wear an L in both- but then I'm a simple man…...

            Shop ad says: These shirts must be washed before wear, in so doing the fabric will "bed-in" and become thicker and more durable. How do you wash these please?

                        Love the new tees. Washing now as recommended.

                        First minute impression:
                        fabric feels a bit heavier but softer
                        like the fit, it does feel a bit slimmer but not noticeably longer to me
                        the white fabric is not quite as bright as the last white, just an ever so slight color to it

                        good work mr haraki

                          noticed after the wash the black is different in color as well…
                          not as black as the priors
                          hint of a dark brown color there
                          quite noticeable next to an old black

                          I took a pic but the digi sensor makes it look much worse than it really is so I'm not gonna put it up

                          color is not bad, just different
                          hell maybe I just screwed up the laundry
                          or that last sam adams was one too many
                          hahaha

                              Post wash, a soft, high quality, and slim fitting T. The length is fine and I particularly like the close-fitting collar.

                              Agree with the previous poster on the white colouring; I'd just add that post wash, the colour does appear to 'brighten' up a bit.

                              I've not been a fan of NAVY coloured T's in the past, but the vividness of the colour and the background texture of the fabric really attracted me. Have to say I'm delighted with it.

                              I don't have a camera, so here is a very representative picture taken from BOSS TALK:

                              On value for money, 10/10, a complete bargain.

                              Construction appears to be tubular, is it loopwheeled?

                                  Considering where the knit is sourced from quite possible…

                                    Not loopwheeled.  If they were, I'm sure that Haraki and/or Giles would have mentioned it long ago.

                                      I believe it was said that Haraki has not been able to find a loopwheeled fabric heavy enough to make an Iron Heart Tee

                                        Corporal, that was in relationship to sweats, not Tee's.

                                        Chris, Haraki obviously felt it was not important, so he did not mention it  :o :o  But yes they are loop wheeled…....
