IHSH-170 - Indigo Dyed 10oz Check Selvedge Flannel Work Shirt

[QuantumMechanic]

Hey everyone, just got this and am thinking it is a tad big all over. My wife thinks it's fine, but she's being sweet knowing how much I like this shirt

Thoughts? Will a hot wash bring it down a size or so?

Cheers

Ignoring my solicitous comments further up the thread, my honest opinion is that it is too big, mate. I recall the product page saying once washed, no shrinkage. I'd see if I could do a trade before risking a hot wash.

I agree with neph @QuantumMechanic, looks about a size too big IMO.

Why am I on the late boat for this one. Giles, will there be a re-up? Anyone with an XL?

^I have an XL coming but I was tempted by the Large. I'll keep you in mind if it doesn't work.

It's weird but, I was thinking the other day, "Damn, PETEROCK1 had some sick fits. What happened to that guy?" Nice to see your name pop back up.

I also have an XL waiting for me when I get home. It will in all likelihood be too big but, I succumbed to the hype and had to at least try one on.

Or wait for the upcoming western…

I thought the IHSH-170 measurements were perfect on the site.  Once I got it, I really felt like it was too big everywhere except the shoulders for me.  I immediately hot washed it and threw it in the dryer.  Now it fits perfect and a medium like always was the right size.  Hope this helps.  The hot wash and dryer did nothing to the fabric (except shrink it). I have a piece of crap top loader and even worse dryer.  Never had an issue with washing IH flannels.  If I want shrinkage, I hot wash and dryer…

So messed that last post up.  Tried to quote with out duplicating your pics.  Anyhow @QuantumMechanic I think you might find luck with a hot wash and dryer.  It has worked for me on more than one occasion with IH flannels…

[QuantumMechanic]

Thanks for the feedback guy's. I'm still leaning towards a hot wash and maybe the drier versus sending it back to Self Edge, but we'll see.

We now have a few extra shirts from a cancelled retailer order (well, he was not playing the game, so Giles cancelled him).  I am trying to check with all the people who contacted us after missing out when the shirt initially went live.

In the meantime, we definitely have sizes S, L and XXL spare - let me know if you want one of these.

You guys better snap these up before I decide I need (what we call in the knife world) "a pre-need replacement "

[Signal11]

@Madame Buttonfly  I'm interested in a size L

I went with the large and was afraid it would be a little big, but it's actually snug around the shoulders.

[Anesthetist]

Looks great RP. Mine is a tiny bit snug in the shoulder too, but I'm very happy with the fit.

And because I cant ever take a photo without "help"

^Large?

Yes. I think my medium days are mostly over.

@Anesthetist I'm happy you were able to snag one. Your daughter is adorable. It gets quite soft after a couple days wear. Super duper awesome.

@Anesthetist great pictures and fit man.  I sized Large as well.
