Patiently waiting on a size M return….

Yeah I think it's the thicc fabric which makes it sit on my shoulders a touch too tight. My other IH that are the same measurements don't feel as uncomfortable.

Unfortunately have to come to terms that my shirt is too small in the shoulders 
I'll be on the hunt for one in size medium…. wish me luck.

@neph93:

Indigo is actually yellow until it hits air so it could be that. There is a sizing agent used on these too. Finally it could be starch.

I was intrigued by your description of the wabash too. Soft and malleable would not have been my choice of adjectives, but now you mention it, it really is those things. But like a bandage is soft and malleable. It is a unique fabric, I adore it. Congrats on a great shirt. I would have had one if it wasn’t for my two 62’s and 68 [emoji1]

Thanks for the indigogo lesson, Neph! I think compared to my preconceived notions of the fabric, it's malleable. I was expecting a pretty stiff fabric. Happily surprised.

Thank you sir. I gave it a warm soak to shrink up the length which I think worked. The water was a tan-brown I think from the copper buttons?

Was able to score one of these and my god why did nobody tell me wabash was so soft and malleable? It literally feels like it's conforming to my body!

Guys I think I finally found the right IH fit. 888 wasn't tapered enough and bunched at the crotch. 666 was too tight in the thighs and hips. 633S is great but still didn't have the silhouette I wanted.
555 is it. Pics to come.

Yeah I went TTS in mine and wish I had sized down, but alas! They are very comfy and looked great for my 20s inspired outfit on NYE.

Quick update, coming up on about a week of wear and they are slowly stretching and getting more comfy. Haven't gone through this process with a pair of raws in a long time. It's slightly grueling but certainly fun.

Hah it's only been 3 wears and the thighs are still tight but I THINK the waist is stretching! The denim is probably the coolest I've ever handled so I'm going to stick it out. I want to experience this denim molding to my body!
