[crankyfart]

@Snowy:

@volcano, epic mate! Am sure you're working on the cover story for when she sees you wearing new clothing too. Happy Holidays!

haha the cover story goes, "what?! this sweater? i got it long ago! i just didn't have the time to wear them. it's definitely not bought during the ban period. i know its gonna make you upset so why would i do that?" this should allow my IHSW-10 to make an appearance real soon. happy holidays too!

What size IH loopwheel'd T are you wearing underneath the sweater, Giles?

[Giles]

Large

[veloaudio]

Debating my size but pretty sure I'm a Large. G, will these shrink at all?

[tigerpac]

Think they're one-washed so minimal shrinkage if any.

^thanks

Just curious to know if the waistband on this one is the same as the IHSW-02?  My IHSW-02 waistband has lost most of its elasticity so is not as effective a layering piece as it used to be.

[Giles]

I believe they are different, but do not have an 02 or 03 here to compare

Any feedback on this fit?  I'm a bit worried about how much it will shrink as this is about as small as I would ever want it to be.  And unfortunately this is an XL so sizing up isn't an option.  Would love to hear people's experiences with how much it shrinks and where.

fd, I think that fit looks perfect.  I can't speak from personal experience, yet; so I will leave that to others.  I have read this thread, as well as the IHSW-05 (same build; slightly different cut), front and back, a couple times, and nobody has complained about any shrinkage.  This is the best quote I could find:

@MikeC:

These also stretch a little and not in a bad way.  Also, once you wash it, it snaps back up to pre-stretch state.

I hope you aren't bothered that I'm quoting you, Mike.  Just a warning, though; if you are, it will probably just make me want to do it more.

I've washed mine several times, no shrinkage to report here either!

Just ordered the "M" to come over to New Zealand. Looking forward to adding this to the smokey flannel, tshirt, IHxB01 jeans and triple works TWSH-03 slubby. The flannels are both Medium so hoping hoodie all good too. Length is only concern. Loving the ironheart quality.

I have a small…no room for any shrinkage. When I wash
it, I pull the sleeves and hand to dry. Might dry it someday.

My Hoodie has arrived. First thoughts: sleeve is tight but makes for a cosy feel made for warmth. the fleece is dense and heavy. Loving it. Not quite cold enough for it here as a daily wear at this stage. I am a happy return customer.
