IHT-1610 - 6.5oz Knitted Cotton Loopwheel T-Shirts
-
Loopwheel is a process of knitting tubes of fabric, which can get made into garments. If you hover over "Loopwheel" on the product page, you will see a more detailed construction of the fabric.
Loopwheel machines are ancient and of fixed circumference, that is, only one size tube can be knitted on a proper loopwheel machine.
The largest loopwheel machines are capable of knitting a current XL circumference. To make an XXL we have to cut smaller tubes and sew them together, hence the side seams on a XXL or larger.
My shirt is XL.

So on the 6.5oz we have to include side seams. That does not make it not loopwheel. This fabric is loopwheel. If you think a side seam makes it not loopwheel and therefore not so desireable, I'll take it back off you no problem.

Care to give a little more detail (or point me to where the relevant information may be)?
I will and I will update the hover over, but frankly I take exception to the assertion that "my shirt is definitely not loopwheel", neither Haraki or I are are in the business of bullshit or dissembling. I would have thought that was quite obvious in the ay we expose so much to you guys.
I am perfectly prepared to be accused of a mistake not of dissembling.
Thanks, I wanted to check to make sure I received the product I paid for. It appears I did, and I learned more about loop wheeled shirts. Thank you for your time.

[/quote]This was covered somewhere earlier in the thread. All the XL's have side seams (and some of the other sizes too I think). The fabric is still loopwheeled. That's why it's all soft and springy.
Thank you. This is why I asked to see if this was indeed the case. I skimmed over most of the thread but didn't see that information. I have other loopwheeled shirts in xl with no side seams. Just wanted to make sure there was no mix up.

I should have kept reading…
It looks like I lucked out. I can wear the L in navy (pretty fitted) and the XL in white.

Done some editing of this thread to remove some inconsistencies in my descriptions…..
I'd like to be able to do that with most of my 20's and large parts of my 30's.
Got my Navy XL today. Still don't understand how the measurements can give such a fit but I've stopped caring. Bloody great shirt.

If you decide you want to try a L, let me know and I'll swap with you.

Spring/summer 2017 has been mentioned earlier.

Restock about 10 days away…...(and IHT-1700 - the printed version).....
With that in mind I'd just like to say that while the grey marl (quite rightly) gets a lot of love, the blue is also an amazing colour in the flesh. A beautiful deep, dark navy, with almost purple-ish hints.

This is exciting. I need to complete my collection.
