      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

                  Thanks, tatman. I think I may give that a try. 3/8" is about all I would want. I still love the 62 and highly recommend it. Oddly enough, I had the exact same experience with my IHD-01od as well re: softening up sooner. You have good taste in IH shirts, sir.

                              Nope me neither and considering most people have an unhealthy diet it is no surprise that an all vegetable diet looks better on paper. However it is very difficult for vegetarians to replace the nutrition missed from not eating meat or fish. From an ethical standpoint, I have no problem killing my own food and have done so. Everyone is free to eat what they please and while on that front I respect an individuals choice. Scientifically speaking, an omnivorous diet is superior to a vegetarian diet. Just had my 1 year anniversary eating Paleo.

                              As in other aspects of life….whatever makes you happy.

                                          I had a friend in high school that was vegetarian (he now eats meat.) and he would always try to get me to eat vegan meat substitutes.  Always thought that shit was nasty.  Tofurkey and fakon (fake bacon).  Just gross.  I never could understand… if you don't want to eat meat, then why would you want something that simulates the taste of meat but fails miserably 
                                          I also find vegetarians have the stinkiest farts.  Worse than a dog.  😢
