IHSH-398-CAM - 11oz Corduroy Western Shirt - Camel
-
Picked up the last XL at Brund CPH this afternoon. Looking at the size chart I was sure a large would have been the one but trying it on the xl felt much better. Fantastic color. You guys have something to look forward to when it arrives at your doorsteps

@PJ I was so tempted to use my lunch break for a trip over.. but knew I would not be able to resist
Will instead try to wear my Kersey Western Shirt in Camel.. which scratches a very similar itch -
@PJ Hey Peter, out of curiosity, which measurements of the size L shirt let you switch to a XL?

@Tobi hehe did the same and went in my break. Seeing it IRL and got weak
Makes a lot of sense with your kersey. 🤎 -
@peng sure. The chest and shoulder measurements suggest a large and it could work indeed. But something about the armpit / shoulders felt a bit tight and the sleeve length worked better on the xl for me. I’m usually shuffling between large and xl in Iron Heart

Now I am questioning my sizing decision. But the measurements line up.
-
I chose an XL over a L., lest the sleeves were too short. I think this shirt just "fits bigger" in the chest from other IH shirts I've seen, so I'm okay with the XL, my normal size, instead of the L.
-
@Marc2706 and if it's the colourway rather than the material that you're interested in then maybe this will scratch the itch
-
@PJ Thanks a lot for your feedback, it seems that we're about the same size and now I wonder if the L, that I've just ordered, is not to tight in the section that you've mentioned.
Anyway, I hope that the great corduroy material will help me get over a pinch under my arm. -
@Tago-Mago I was talking today to Burg ] Schild and they told me that they have ordered some but they did not get it. And finally he did not know whether they really get some shirts. But I will keep on going to get one…..

@peng im sure you will be fine. I’m 190cm and 83kg for reference

I had a chance to try one on before buying, it definitely is sized different than previous westerns. I'm usually a 3 or 4XL in the westerns, but based on measurements this shirt would be a 2XL for me. It would have fit exactly the same but for the armholes. Like most IH shirts the armholes are extremely high, so unless you're a skinny dude the armpits will be very tight. In order for this shirt to fit me I'd need a 4XL but then the arms are too long and the waist is too big so I'd have to do a few alterations.
It's a beautiful shirt, but the biggest issue for me is the high armholes. If you have any sort of shoulder and arm size this will be extremely tight in the armpit area so you'd have to stick with your normal size. If you're a skinny dude then you could for sure size down and it would fit very nicely.
The measurements they provide are all bang on, so you can trust the measurements like they say. However, the one measurement that I would find helpful would be the size of the armhole at the shoulder. That would allow me to determine if it would be a tight fit.

@Marc2706 your more than welcome I am glad I could help. enjoy your new shirt.

Very concerning. I size down, but ever shop owner is wearing their standard size. I think I’m going to buy an XL now and return the one that doesn’t fit.
