IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo

Would a hot soak take any shrinkage out of this shirt? Or does it need to be agitated too?
From what iv heard it wont shrink to much as it is already one wash denim. If its a bit to big on ya I am sure u will get a smidgen of shrinkage if needed
-
^^ the 33 sure looks good on ya. especially those combs on the sleeves.
-
Is 1/2 inch too much to expect?
-
I believe so…Where are u looking for shrinkage? Arms, overall length or width?
-

nah thats quite reasonable. check up earlier on. i remember there were some measurements posted about pre and post soak which should around 1/2 inch shrink or something.

They appeared in a matter of a few hours & the shirt suctioned to my body in 2 days..This is a perfect everyday shirt
-
Just looking for some shrinkage in the chest.
-
I am curious to see how it fits on ya..Can u post one

post a fit pic? honestly, it might not be as bad as what you think.
-
I'm posting from bed right now. Maybe tomorrow. I'm not saying that I don't like the fit. It would just be more ideal if it was smaller in the chest.
-
^ one thing i've realised, IH tend to be roomier compared to other shirts that are fitting (maybe because of the shirt's background; working shirts). but still, their shirts makes me frown when i go shopping for shirts at the local malls. i am totally bought over with their quality.
on 1 occasion, i was wearing my IHSH-33 and i went into G-star. Compared with a denim shirt that was very close to the IHSH-33 price and damn i swear i would shoot myself at the head had i bought the G-star denim shirt instead of the 33. the quality difference is worlds apart. like comparing a true-blue working shirt to a wanna-be working shirt.
the above might piss others but i stand firm on my statement.
p.s/ i always tell my mates proudly that IH stuffs might sound pricey to them but the quality beats every single shit you can find out there.

Amen to that

LOL a belt sander
I guess u can say i cheat a bit…I dont have a strenuous job nor do i skateboard or do any of those natural bad ass things in mine. I have to simulate some of those things by getting creative. Like making sure every time I take a seat I sit & slide and being sure I rest my elbows. Its a bit stupid i guess but I don't have the patience or the raw denim stamina yet like some of u pro's
-
damn! those were worn for a week only?! i'd better start working on mine more i guess.
-
I also have been wearing a raw denim jacket over it everyday. It causes some raw on raw friction. That certainly has helped
