Now there is an excuse to have two

Hi everyone,
I'm considering this shirt, but am wondering on sizing. How much does it shrink? I'd say that it would be generally an almost perfect fit as is, but would have a little bit of wiggle room with some shrink in length and a little in the chest.
I guess my concern is the shrink coupled with the dense material might make it not work.
Your thoughts appreciated greatly.
Thanks!

It shrinks about half a size….but it can stretch back out when damp

@QuantumMechanic - I went with my XL, as that's what I wear in Most MFSC shirts, except their Tshirts, which I wear a L. My XL is very roomy which is what I wanted, but I only cold soaked it. Ive heard people got a good amount of shrink with a wash. I plan to give it a machine wash this spring.
I know @summ3rhays sized up on his, maybe he has done the most drastic shrinking to it? What size are you looking for? I think most sizes are present on this forum by owners and we would be happy to post our "post soak" measures. I think @deanclean went with XXL and I bet @Anesthetist went with L. not sure who/if anyone has a M though.

Yeah, I went XXL. I would have bought an XL, but it was sold out, haha. I hot soaked it twice and it's perfect to wear as a shacket. It helps too that I put on some pounds after my divorce was finalized and the holiday hit. I'd be interested in knowing what size you are looking for as well. I really like the shirt and am actually wearing it today.

I actually just picked up this workshirt in XXL and was contemplating moving it along because it's so huge in the arms and long. Right now it looks like a nightshirt on me, which is saying something. You guys are starting to convince me that I should give a hot soak a go, because it is a damn beautifully detailed shirt.

I went with my usual MF large and it fits well after a warmish soak with agitation. I imagine it still has some shrink to it though. I'll try to remember to take some measurements before and after I wash it.

@tvenuto, I've found that all MF shirts are long. I think they are meant to be tucked in.
-
Thanks @Appfaff @summ3rhays @Anesthetist - I ended up ordering the shirt in a small. I normally wear an IH small (although I could probably do a an extra-small). My intent is to wear it as a shirt and not a shacket.
This is my first MF anything and am looking forward to wearing it. I'll post a pick when I get it which will probably be next week.
Cheers.

Some early stuff is pretty trim cut, but the sportsman stuff is all fairly oversized. I say throw it in a hot wash and machine dry and see what happens. Length and Arms are where you will see the most shrinkage (if any) anyways.
I have some personal favorites that I have been eyeing for years arriving today from MFSC and Im hoping the sizing works out… I've been buying his stuff for more than half a decade and I still get nervous about the sizing haha.

I own a small in the 10 Anni. CPO and typically wear a small in IH, sometimes an XS. I am a little long in the body so the shirt doesn't fit long on me at all. If I sized up to a medium it would probably be a bit long. You will most likely notice the arm holes being a bit higher than IH shirts and maybe slightly slimmer through the chest but going same size as you wear in IH was the right choice in my opinion.
