I was able to pickup an XXL (normal IH shirt size for me) in both this and the 417-IND at Franklin & Poe. These were my 2 must-haves from the collection - too bad for my bank account they dropped at the same time! Both are going to be clutch this summer:

This might be my new favorite short sleeved shirt! It is going to be amazing for the summer:

This bad boy arrived today. I just sold my 526PJ because it was a bit too tight over anything other than a t-shirt. This fit pic is over both a sweatshirt and UHF. I think after a soak it’s going to be perfect!

Loving this shirt! Definitely a trimmer fit than the original which is to be expected and not necessarily a bad thing.

First UHR and first 634 - loving both the denim and the cut!

This is what mine ended up looking like after a year of wear:

Final submission photos of my 777XHSib's for the Indigo Invitational.  364 days of wear, typically 12+ hours a day even through one of the hottest summers I can remember.  The pain was real, but I think the result was worth it.  These still have lots of life and I will continue to wear them in rotation with other pairs.

Could hardly believe it when I saw the top 3 for ROW.

First and second place for ROW were wildcards. For an event like this I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have judges whose aesthetic sense is at odds with the community.

This is the part that irks me the most - why even bother with a voting round when ultimately the community’s voice is overridden by the judges? To me this really taints the results as it feels like the winners were almost forced onto the podium for some reason.

I would honestly like to see judging end at the initial down-select, then have it all democratised and decided by those who put in the time and effort to cross the finish line. I think it would be awesome to have a playoff bracket where the judges’ top 50 gets thinned out and seeded into a bracket based on votes. Then there would be subsequent voting rounds to decided who advances. The championship could be the “ROW conference” winner vs the “SEA conference” winner. Maybe I’ve had too much tequila and am a little too excited for the Eagles game tomorrow, but I think I might be on to something….

The 336 is one of my all time favorite UHFs, so I couldn’t pass this up. Can’t wait for the pink to start poppin’ through!

@Mizmazzle it is quite nice - lightweight, but sturdy with an ever so slight bit of texture. I feel like it is only going to get better with wear and washing.

@northsouthdenimguy I think this was a good one to roll the dice on. Relative to other IH short sleeved shirts I own, I would say that the both the sleeve length and opening size on this one are a little more generous (and IH SS shirts are typically more generous in both regards relative to a lot of other brands). Hopefully it ends up working out for you.

@ZackB I ended up in the same size for both - XXL (my typical IH shirt size). I was a bit concerned looking at the measurements for this one, but F&P also had an XXXL that I also tried on. I really like the fit of the XXL, but it is a little slimmer than the 420.

FOMO hit me so hard on this one I accidentally ended up ordering 2 XXLs!!!

To be clear I'm joking/exaggerating here. I actually think the Indigo Invitational is great, and am looking forward to joining again for Y5. I'm also too slow of a fader to ever be in the running for a top spot, so I have no disappointments related to my own placing.

Yeah, I’m right there with you - I had no illusions that I had a shot at winning. I am mainly upset with the process and pissed that other contestants in this forum who IMO had more impressive fades AND were voted into the top 16 got the shaft. That said, I already have my Y5 pair

This should in fact be happening! From the Y4 Rulebook:
• First place finishers from each conference will go head-to-head to determine our overall winner.

That will be…interesting. I wonder which judges get to decide that?

@Oaktavia thanks brother! I think everything looks good with that UHF - IMO it’s one of the best!
