Just received my second IH waffle thermal henley from Rodeo Bros today. I went XL this time and I copped the black one. Fit is perfect for wearing just as a shirt, exactly the fit I was looking for. Once again, a high quality shirt delivered in a timely manner. Completely satisfied! I might cop one more Henley in XL, either the grey or another white. My IH collection is slowly growing and I'm starting with the basics. I'm a sucker for basic items constructed with the highest quality and craftsmanship and that's EXACTLY what IH does. I'm trying to hunt down an IH 7.5 oz Loopwheeled T-shirt (2014 version) now but no luck yet. Guys, I highly recommend the IH thermal waffle Henleys. Great product and great price at Rakuten. What did you do with the stitching runoff on your henleys? The ones on the sleeve cuffs bothers me, AND it's ugly |

Wearing my 102 now.
Iron heart shirts are as much as an experiance as a piece of clothing.
The 102 And 107 I find are perfect for the north east winter. Warm enough on cold days but not super artic cold warm where I have to take it off inside. Great shirts to wear out since you can live with them inside and outside.
Construction honestly is second to none. I have many brands. Burberry, Ralph Lauren purple label, canali, kiton.
Fit is different between models so pay attention to fit guide. Fabrics are second to none.

Don't cut off the runoffs before you ship the grey one to me @untucked!  Yeah, I'd cut off the ones on the arms. It seems like they would be pretty annoying when wearing. |

I was apprehensive about cutting..... But once I actually put the black one on tonight to go bar-hopping, I realized 3" cuffs are too big, so I flipped them and the run-off is no longer a problem |

Ok, I think I am able to get one more shirt before the holiday.. Anyone has experienced with IHSH-100 17oz duck CPO? What do you guys think? Thinking about navy... with size L or XL since it is a CPO shirt.  |

I will be banning all talk of companies that don't make killer gear that fits me from now on.  THAT is why I have such high hopes for LD. I'm so sick of crazy gear only made for the smaller amongst us!!! |

I like the brown one MiddleAge. As for size I'm not sure what your usual IH size is. |

My fit picture of a brand new IHSH-62 in medium  Size chart for the IHSH-62  Size chart for the IHSH-100  IHSH-62 is known to run large compared to other western shirt when it is new. I am leaning toward XL because I want to wear a shirt underneath..... however, a bit unsure about the shoulder length. I am worry it will be too wide. Attachments:

I think that Old26 would have to get squished by an anvil from above to get any of it to work. |

Yeah, if it were just diet, etc I'd be happy. I'm in the Sasquatch section at most places, but American companies seem to be almost the only places where I can get gear.
When I was a kid in sports, I had to wear a size 12 shoe on my 13 feet. I f*cked them up royally, but 12 was sorta the cutoff point and I had to suck it up until Puma and Adidas started selling 13's in my area.
That and the too-short sleeves kill me, but at least I can roll a sleeve and survive...

We should start a BFS thread. Big f!@king Shirts. List all the brands that work for you linebacker types.
I squeak under the bigfoot genes cutoff line at 6-2 but i feel your pain with the Japanese brands, I run XL or even XXL in most of them where I run tall L to XL in US brands. Many shops on Rakuten get S,M and L and maybe a few XL's but not always.
Old26, I feel your pain. I used to play football in size 12s and needed 13s when I was a kid. Now I have super high arches and my feet are stiff, I swear it's from cramming my feet in those friggin shoes....
I ordered a pair of size 13 custom Vans slip on's in 1982 and my feet had a religious experience when I put those things on. Now you can roll into any store and get size 13s and 14s....different times.

Now you can roll into any store and get size 13s and 14s....different times. My downfall was (for decades) ingrown toenails that I could not get rid of. Being larger is not all it's cracked up to be - and every single fight I was ever in was started by some small guy saying sh*t like "you think you're tough?!". I never started a fight, and I never got into one with another guy my size, but I was in and finished plenty. Football and soccer were great, but track is where the pain was - I did long jump and the 220. The long jump was my best and it hurt the most. Now, I gotta deal with all you f*ckers and your awesome IH shirts? F*** no! |

Old26....that's funny because it's true. I never started fights but was in (and finished) plenty because someone always wanted to fight the "big" kid. There was no winning because you either put the guy on the floor, in which case you "beat up someone smaller than you" or in the rare times when you lost you "got your ass kicked by a little guy". I used to get dragged into fights with high school kids when I was in eighth grade because they thought I was from another high school and in "their territory". I did learn a lot about defending myself though so in the end it was a good thing. This was many years before "bullying" was a thing and was actively opposed by schools. Before someone chimes in, NO I never thought I was a badass lol. Quite the opposite, I hated fighting and still do but you either take it or give it back when someone comes at you. I'm fully aware that a lightweight 5' MMA guy could dismantle me and still have time for dinner. We're talking about kid fights here  |
