Guys, this shirt looks so good, but you’re not helping those of us waiting for the work shirt version!
I am dying

Amazing piece of clothing…

@Twistlock I promise the wait will be worth it.

Gentlemen,
I could use some advice on sizing since I will have to order over the internet and I do not have access to a try one of these on.I measured several of my shirts today to compare to the IH measurements. I also measured my chest, belly and waist thinking that if I double the shirt measurements I could compare the two.
This is how they came out.
I am 5'-10", 193 #, chest measures 44, belly 43, waist 39, shoulders 20, (down 18# since starting gym membership in October, still working at it!)I measured my body, (3) pair of my shirts I own that fit with room and compare to the IHSH L, XL
Actual. Shirts. IHSH Dimensions
Shoulders 20, 20, xl 18.6, xxl 19.6
Length NA, 31-34, xl 30.3, xxl 30.7
Chest P2P 44, 24-25, xl 22.7 (2x=45.4), xxl 23.6 (2x=47.2)
Waist. 39, 23.5-25, xl 21.7 (2x=43.4), xxl 22.6 (2x=45.2)
Opening 39, 24-25, xl 21.8 (2x=43.6), xxl 22.8 (2x=45.6)
Sleeves. NA, 24-24.5, xl 26.7 , xxl 27.1Shoulders - looks like xxl would be minimum
Length - L & XXL will work
Chest - Looks like xxl is best match for shirt dimensions but would maybe equate to 47" chest which is too big.
Waist - Looks like xxl is best fit although a bit less than my shirts.
Opening - Looks like xxl is best fit, even though it is an inch less than my shirts, the circumference seems ok.So given the above, would you recommend the xxl? I see they can shrink a bit and if I chose the large it might shrink to be too small.
What are your thoughts.
As an aside, the IH 777S in tag 36 is the best fit for me. I was able to try on in Chicago last month but did not try on the shirts. Bought a pair of slubbys :).
Thanks for your help. -

I went ahead and ordered the XXL.
I have never ordered any thing beyond an XL and that was before I dropped a bunch of weight. These shirts must run small.
We will see how it fits and I will upload some photos.
This is really inconvenient being having to do trial and error on sizing.
Thanks for the encouragement guys!
Stay tuned.......... -
My shirt came today and I am posting photos as promised. This is an XXL and it fits pretty well. Perhaps just a smidge snug. It does not feel tight. The sleeves are a little longer than I like but they will work.
The color and the texture of this shirt is really interesting in a very nice way.
If I wash this in cold water, will it shrink?
I plan on keeping it as I am continuing to lose weight and improve my tone.
3 hours a week at the gym with a trainer will do that; so glad I got a membership.

@Luscombe looking sharp!
-
This shirt is just great…Love it!
-
@Cskarev great fit
-
@steelworker I almost believe Iron Heart’s L size is designed based on my measurements
All of my IH shirts are in size L and the fit is spot on.
-
@Cskarev L would fit me like a charm.
If I lost 30 lbs -
@steelworker My only program for losing weight was to get a dog. Now I am averaging more than 6.5 miles of walking per day for the last 12 months and I have lost about 15 lbs of weight.
