Do we do that here? Haha.
Because I got in the unbranded 10 ounce work shirt in and I'm not totally convinced it fits me right. It feels a little tight around the old stomach.

It looks just a little bit long, but it's hard to tell outside of a full body picture. Overall, I think it looks good though

Thanks! It's my first chambray in a material this dense, so I guess that's what's throwing me. Which leads me to a side-question...
Do denim chambrays/workshirts in this material thickness break in? Soften? Loosen? All of my other chambrays are fairly thin and stay pretty much the same.

In my experience, yes. I have a couple of heavy chambray G-shirts and they are fairly soft and flimsy now, but they aren't 10oz..... How does that feel? My 7oz shirt feels like 12oz denim lol

I think the fit is great overall except length then it depends on how long you like untucked shirts to be. Shoulders and chest look good. I personally like an untucked shirt to fall about 1/2 way between waist and crotch. I know some others like it longer. A fairly easy job to shorten at a good tailor except for maybe the selvedge gusset. Not much you can do about the stomach except lose some of it unless you get a larger shirt that will be baggier all over. Head over here for info on that. selvedgestyle.com/thread/307/workout-supplement-meal-plan?page=1&page= Can't comment on the the arms as they are rolled up. Most all thicker fabrics soften some with wear. Many here including me have heavy denim shirts 10oz-16oz and they take a while to even drape right. A hand wash or machine if you need shrinkage softens them up also. This could also shorten the length some but could make waist tighter. There would be more shrinkage in length though compared with the waist. Just wear the heck out of it and you should be fine.

Try keeping the bottom button undone. It may give alittle more room where needed.

Not 100% sure about the shirt(it's OK, but a shorter/boxier cut like this or this would look better IMO), but the beard looks awesome and 100% spot on whiskeyriver. Still counting the days till I’m old enough… Haha thanks unnamed. I used to try and shave, but my beard was like "naw, dawg...you can't kill me..." So I gave up! Lol. And thanks, I'll check those out.

Looks pretty good. I've got that and the red chambray. I've washed them both a couple times and been wearing them for the last year and they are both still pretty stout. I don't see this fabric softening dramatically, but it makes me feel invincible!
They are cut pretty trim, it's a bit long but I think it fits well.

Yours fits well. Mine needs to loosen a bit, or the belly needs to shrink haha. I'm keeping it either way.

I don't mind it, but some of the current untucked aficionados claim there's just the right length and the rest of us are dopes. Great looking shirt.

You guys are making me blush... You're a good 2" taller than me, so that helps it not look like an "apron." Haha.

I think it looks great if your going for a fitted look!

I think it looks great if your going for a fitted look! I'd second the above. Also worth noting you'd see a very slightly more relaxed fit without the undershirt.

It sure feels better without the undershirt. The fit through the shoulders looks a hell of a lot better.
