IHD-01 - Special G Denim Version
-
just wondering, if anyone who wears this also own some fred perry polo shirts. If I wear a Medium for Fred Perry's slim cut polo shirts and a Small for their regular cut, whats my size?
To provide further details, I wear a Small for Polo Ralph Lauren's regular cut long sleeve shirts. My lady tried measuring my shoulders but it reads 20 which is ridiculous cos my memory somewhat tells me im a 16-17". :-\
-
I find that the limiting measurement is the chest measurement, not the shoulder measurement
chest? mine measured at 40-41 while my shoulders are about 17" so a medium? would it shrink a lot till I can't fit? and I'm also looking to get the 526J but I'll be wearing both with a shirt inside. thanks a lot!
-
Yeah, that sounds about right. I wear a L and I'm around 42" around the chest
about right? but would there be a lot of shrinking after wash?
-
It says right there on the page to expect half a size of shrinkage
So it would go from 42" all around to 41"…
so you reckon I should get medium for this shirt and the 526J?
-
Hey Volcano, don't forget this shirt comes in 2 versions. The regular version shrinks about a half size when washed and the OD version (which G is wearing) will not shrink. The OD process effectively taken all the shrinkage out.
-
^ yeah I know about that. but I prefer this version instead of the OD. and it seems I'm a medium as mentioned by G.
-
^ have done so and now eagerly anticipating for the parcel to arrive. hopefully by friday if possible. G, you reckon is that possible? or I have to wait for next week? :-\
on a side note, the 634S that i ordered last week still have not reach me. it reached singapore last friday and the tracking wrote it's "out for delivery" on 27th but till now, wednesday its still not here.

Me like very muchly…

Thanks Rafa, I'm struggling to mentally comprehend if it is a shirt or a jacket. I think it might be the perfect combination of both, and therefore the ultimate in versatile top half clothing. I can't wear the IHW-01 so much, as it is a hefty piece of clothing, but this is such a great weight that I can see it getting lots, and lots of use…...might even displace my 33 as my most worn top.

just tried on my IHD-01 and I've to say its definitely a very thick shirt. my aunt called me when the parcel arrived and said, "your jacket and belt have arrived". I said no, it should be a shirt. and we debated for a short while.
anyway it's hanging to drip dry now. can't wait to wear it out tomorrow even though the weather in singapore is insanely hot.

I don't think you can classify it as a shirt or a jacket to be honest, it sits somewhere in between.
