How much shrinkage did you get? I don't remember. |

have you guys experienced any shrinkage with IH flannels? I know their fabrics are typically once washed and their descriptions via IHUK state that there is very little to no shrinkage, but i'm curious what you're exprerience has been. I typically cold wash/hang dry all of my flannel shirts and still get at least .5" of shrinkage in the chest/length. Some of the IH flannels in size large list their chest size @ 22.4" or 22.5" which is kinda big for me. 22" or maybe a hair under would work. Do they sew up some of their flannels larger to account for possible shrinkage with a hot wash? Other than the chest, the rest of the measurements for a large look spot on for my torso If you cold hand wash and hang dry your IH flannel you should get no shrinkage at all. I have gotten shrinkage with a warm/hot machine wash and warm/hot machine dry though. I'll second that about no shrinkage at all with cold wash, and hang. Most all cotton will shrink some with heat abuse, some more, some less. The beauty of IH flannel to me is to be able to buy the size you need, and not have to worry about it shrinking up. I bet most of us have had experience with an inferior flannel product that turned into a garbage fit after it hit water. |

Splurged for the first time paying full price for the 634S-B restocked today via IHUK  . Super stoked for first pair of OD, however, I can't shake the need to go to confession. Don't you have a pair of these Ickes? |

Don't you have a pair of these Ickes? I do, you'll love them. Very f!@king cool and they actually start fading pretty damn fast too, at least faster than I expected. I wore them through last fall/winter very sparingly as I had others at the top of my rotation but they are already showing signs of fading. Hope the fit works for you. On a side note I believe Giles has said they are going to overdye the recently released 14oz fabric in the near future. Looking forward to that. While I'm on the topic I'll give those another shameless plug and recommend them to those looking for a lightweight IH jean. |

These actually seem less "floaty" or generous in thighs as other 634 versions so I'm pretty excited too for first 634 fit. Never dawned on me a lot of folks are shorter than 6 - 6.1 posting fit pics in the 634 out of the bag and giving perhaps a more baggy presentation. 14OD...sold  ...a 14OD shacket would be nice. |

Purple 127 is a stunner! Was very ambivalent but damn. No wonder the ombre was so well received. Even a friend gave it props over my other IH shirts. Just plain works with dark indigo jeans. One of my favorite IH shirts for sure. Never would have thought. I don't think the green pops that/too much. Maybe I have deficits who knows. The red to me is more intrusive. Debating on selling red. How right you are about the purple. So glad I added it to the collection The color comes across as muted--dusty eggplant i'm calling it  and it's my favorite 127 followed by the green (also dope) I was un-won-over by the photos, but there is nothing 'barney' about it, bad ass all the way. |

Nice shirt.
Anyone wear a wool shirt? How's it feel?
I have one made by the Jean Maker but use it as an over shirt-jac.
If these are lighter weight, how do you think they'll look? To Heavy for an indoor shirt?
