IHSH-62-ind - 12oz Wabash Western Shirt - Indigo
-
Inevitably, it seems, after falling in love with my new 634s and BB jeans, I'm considering a IH shirt. I'm debating between the Wabash Western and the Hickory Stripe work shirt. Anyone have both and would like to compare their merits? I'm a little uncertain on size as my measurements hover somewhere between a XXL & a XXXL. This is a bit surprising given that I wear XL in nearly every other shirt I own.
For reference, I'm a L or XL here in the USA and XXXL in IH. But I agree with Giles, there is no consistency in sizing across brands, even here. I love the fact that IH shows the measurements - more U.S. retailers should do the same, they'd cut down on returns. The only truth in sizing is the actual measurements… Oh yeah, I'd go for the Waby

Well, the deed is done, Wabash ordered. I'm eager to see what it's like. With summer just beginning to make an appearance here in the NYC metro area, I may not get to wear it too much. I assume it's not a hot weather shirt. On the other hand, my 634s's have felt quite comfy in the mid-70 degree weather - so surprising for heavyweight jeans!
Oh, and thanks for encouraging my newly found addiction to Iron Heart.

Definitely not a hot weather shirt. The wabash fabric is fantastic, but it is warm.

^Looking good mate, might have to pick this up one of these days!

Wow, Snowy, after seeing that picture I'm glad I bought this shirt. It looks great! Now just fingers crossed that it fits right …

One of my favorites. In fact, wore mine today as well!
