ickes that's what I was thinking but the WS looks a bit fuller than the western shirt cut. It is. All of their work shirts have a fuller cut than the westerns but its fuller in the waist. I really dont think your chest, shoulders, arms and forearms are going to squeeze in to Large. I've got a 42" actual chest fwiw and the XL is perfect. |

Pretty sure XL should be fine. Plus it's chambray I can only assume it will shrink.

Which is crazy since the USA portion is fulfilled by USPS. Man that moment when you miss a delivery on a Saturday and realize you have to wait until Monday to get it.... |

Man that moment when you miss a delivery on a Saturday and realize you have to wait until Monday to get it.... bodybuilding.com got me my order the next day using ground shipping. Also, I've had something shipped to me know Sunday by USPS. It surprised me, but I see those little mail carts driving around on Sundays now more and more. |

Just to add to the many examples of awesomness that is Rakuten; ordered my IH-816 duck work pants on 07/21 and they were delivered (well, attempted..I missed them and they are sitting at post office for me) today, 07/27. Thats 6 days but I checked the tracking and this includes a 2 day hold at customs in Chicago. Gotta love effin Rakuten man. I will pick them up tomorrow from the post office. |

resurrecting this as I need help on fit as well, ickes brentkuz how much shrink did it have once you soaked it as I am debating on a L or XL in the black TS size 42/44 (I won't button top as my neck is 17.5") J Crew size L/slim XL depending on fabric I looked at the sizing chart on IHUK and I'm in between a L and XL, so leaning to XL if its shrinks since chambray? |

Funny wore mine yesterday. My XL 21 fits amazingly. I never washed mine though I'm not a coal miner and it's been pretty clean. If you are on the edge I say go up to the XL. I'm a 42/44 in Taylor stitch and mostly a XL in iron heart besides a few shirts. Chambray can be shrunk no doubt about that. |

I went XL on both the black on blue IHSH-21 and I'm a 42/44 in TS also. I have soaked both of mine in cold water and there was zero shrinkage, absolutely none. FWIW the black XL is a bit more of a tailored fit on me than the blue XL. I didn't actually check the fit guides to see if the black one sewed up smaller or not. |

Excellent bang for your buck on these. I don't believe the black one is available on Rakuten but I could be wrong. I know for sure the blue is on Rakuten though. |

I've found that I've only worn mine 3 times total because of the wide opening. Still need to get it tailored because I love everything else about this shirt. Well...I would love it more if it actually faded.

Are these a bit darker IRL then most other lighter chambrays?

Chambray will fade with many washes, but in an overall way, unlike denim. At least with my experience.
