IHSH-177 - 18oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo

[neph93]

Only 6’ (6’2” in Wesco [emoji1]) and I weigh 202lbs. An L would work although it would be snug. I’d maybe go XL because of shrinkage. The 177/8 is all shrunk out so you won’t have that problem.

I think the wisdom is to go with your standard IH size with these but I guess how you wear it may play a part. If your looking at layering as is intended or if you’ll wear it over a tee or a-shirt.

No one wants that kind of shrinkage…

Heya gents, is there an restock of these fine, fine shirts on the radar?

How can I get one of these in a 56 to 58 inch chest? I'm dying to get one of these shirts.

You can't I am afraid.  I'd love to sort you out, but it took all my powers of persuasion to get the Japanese to go up to XXXXL (which in the shirt is only a P2P of about 50).  I'm also not sure we can make a shirt that large with a 30" wide shuttle loomed fabric.

Need to wear this a bit more often, but I really like it a lot, such a beauty!

The light wasn't the best, a bit dark.

I miss having a heavy denim CPO. I’ll be looking to pick up this or the 178 when the restock arrives.

[marlin]

Really? It's about time then!

I used to have the IHSH-76 which was the og version but it was a little big for me so I moved it on. I miss it badly but the fit wasn’t right.

[marlin]

Aahh…o.k...understood.

You know, I had the same issue with the 178.  I had picked it up in a size L, same as my UHFs, but it just never fit quite right. I had to keep telling myself "this looks great!", but the sleeves were too long.

I had the opportunity to try a M at SE:LA and instantly fell in love.  Some might say the fit was kinda small but not me (I'll post pics soon).  Since then, I've practically been living in that shirt.  I put it on as soon as I get up and it stays on me until I fall asleep.  I'm so glad I sized down on it, I recommend you try sizing down if yours was a tad big, because it's too practical, tough, and beautiful to skip!

@Paul9221 I think it's something about the way the 76/99's and the 177/178's are cut. They are designed as jackets that look like shirts, (longer sleeves, longer in the body and slightly wider through the middle, and intended to be worn over layers (hoodies/shirts). I don't look good (or feel comfortable) in that double shirt combo that a lot of folks around here rock so well. The point being if you want to wear these badboys as a shirt over a tee or a singlet (my preference) then tts or size down.

Find myself always wearing the 178 with a sweatshirt or jumper underneath, double collars don't suit me either.

@EJS:

double collars don't suit me either.

And wtf is that about, right? Annoys me to see everyone killing that look and when I try it ranges between “meh” and “oh hell no”.

Can someone please lost some evo pics of this shirt?

No, you're just gonna have to trust us that this is an amazing shirt and buy it on faith

I bet you @theorocks has some great fades on his.  The last time he posted progress pics was about 6 months ago and already had fantastic evo.  Any chance of pics, Theo?
