Fed Ex guy just dropped off presents for me- a new control panel for my stove and a pair of boots.
It's a good day.:D
-
White's Semi Dress. No pics; they're going straight back. Apparently, I'm a size 10, not a size 10.5. Not happy about my decision to not send my measurements in to Kyle and let the expert determine my size.
-
10 in the 50s Service Boot, so Kyle and I thought that 10.5 would probably be right. He offered to check my measurements to be sure, but I declined. In retrospect, not the best decision I ever made.

I know the feeling. I accepted Seuls application for forum membership…..
My mistake won't haunt me as long, though. Nor will it inflict misery on others, like yours has. He's kinda like herpes, isn't he?:D
And yeah, Finn, looks like I'm a 10 in both. Doesn't seem right, but there it is…

Glad my screw up has been informative.:D Not a total loss after all…

I suppose now would be the appropriate time to mention my mis-sizing adventure with the IH-68, huh?
(short version for those who care: I ordered XL. Returned it for XXL.)
The sacrifices I make for the good of our members…

I'm assuming you're normally an XL in IH shirts? Quite a run you're on, Chris. This member appreciates it though, haha.

Honestly, I'm not sure- I only own IH tee shirts currently, and I'm a size Large in them. Living in Houston, I don't have any real need for IH's other shirts.
The XL actually fit well. If I had posted fit pics, people probably would have said it was perfect. I thought it was a touch small through the shoulders and arms, even though it looked fine. I was worried that any shrinkage at all would render it unwearable, and I'm to lazy to baby my clothing. Since all the numbers on the XXL were only about 3/4ths of an inch bigger, I thought it would work better. We'll see when it gets here.
-
Yeah, good luck with the XXL. If it is too big, I would go back down to the XL and not worry about shrinkage. I actually tried to shrink the 62 a bit, without any luck. The new Wabash is really stubborn and holds its shape well, which I actually consider to be a very good thing, in the long run. I hope it all works out for you because, as you know, this new Wabash is really nice.

I actually needed some shrinkage on my 62.. after several soaks and still unhappy with the fit I flipped the bugger inside out and threw it in the wash with hot water and medium agitation. I ended up with an additional right around 3/8" shrinkage in all directions and now fits perfect… but still very stubborn... worn it quite a bit and still has the new stiff as a board feeling... kinda crazy now that I think about it. My IHd-01od softened up much faster
