I'm honestly considering trying out the IH 1955 cut.

Finally got around to going to the store in town that carries 3sixteen. I tried on the heavyweight T. Wow. Nice T. Just wondering how much shrink I can expect. The website says to expect 1 inch shrink in the chest and 2 inches shrink in the length. Is that in line with everyone's experience? Trying it on in the store, the L was just about perfect, but if there is shrink I'll probably go with an XL. For reference, I'm a L in gustin T's.

They will shrink if you throw them in the dryer but if you wash cold and lay flat to dry there's no shrinkage. They are great Ts and easily at the top of my list and I've tried a bunch. |

Not to derail this thread again but I've found my Japanese brand that has the fits I like with room in the thighs, Fullcount.

Stop derailing  Fullcounts are great - i went 1 size to big and tried to shrink down without luck, so they were just too big. Forgot which I had, was a lighter weight but just great. I have a 3sixteen henley - ditto ickes here, didn't shrink much with cold wash hang dry |

SL-120x These have been a pleasant surprise. I was very meh upon inspecting when new to be honest with IH spoilage. Already much more interesting (or envisioned with new denim anyways) with very little wear. These kick ass.  |

Yeah was looking hard at that a while back. Would love an IHSH-99 type shacket made out of it. Instabuy.

I think IH's overdyed stuff is similar in its own way.

Still havent worn my SL-120's in a long time. They were my first real pair of raws before i had my fit dialed in. They fit but the hem look like bell bottoms to me now. I now prefer a slimmer profile on my jeans

Great time to finally p/u a 2 pack of t-shirts for the first time via Selfedge sale. Damn, out of lg whites. Any thoughts on exp/sizing with these? 6' at 170 here. Pretty sure large at 43' chest is sweet spot.
Edit: That oatmeal heavyweight hoody is fing dope. Have the black one and its basically perfect. Would have picked up the oatmeal one instead.

I'm still curious if their hoodies are a private label item made by Reigning Champ

I'm really impressed with these things. The construction is first rate, a bit slubby but not overly. perfect dark inky indigo. The ST cut is almost perfect for me, i'm not sure why i waited so long now. Here are my pre and post measurements. FWIW, the pre-soak measurements on 3sixteen's site were almost spot on.
I did two soaks. An initial hot soak for 45 minutes and then i followed it up the next day with a 25 minute "hottest" soak, using the hottest water my bathtub would get.
Pre Soak
Waist - 17.25"
Rise - 11"
Thigh - 11.75"
Knee - 8.50"
Leg Opening - 7.25"
Inseam 36"
Post Soak
Waist - 16.375"
Rise - 10.625"
Thigh - 11.25"
Knee - 8"
Leg Opening - 7"
Inseam - 34.5"
I'll try to get a few fit pics, but they fit like a glove and feel great.

Selfedge had them for 60% off or so, but those stupid stacked pockets killed it for me.

yep, it's hideous. I recall those being on clearance from a bunch of other retailers last year, or maybe it was this past Spring. |

Hello all. This thread is probably biased but is shadow selvedge still the gold standard for I X I (I x Black)?
After mistakenly selling my G pair I’m looking for a replacement
I have not gone down this route since I generally prefer a higher rise and have not seen much in the i x I
Anyway considering the ct if they are not a lifters cut
Or something from freenote or subject to low rise try on a pair of railcar spikes
