IHSH-154 - Organic Herringbone Cotton Work Shirts - Olive and Charcoal
-
Just got my olive 154 in, it's a lot more green in person compared to the photos online.
And it's a difficult shirt to capture the true color of as you can see in these photos!
That's not a bad thing, it's a really nice shade of olive. I'm always skeptical when it comes to wearing this color with my skin tone but I think I actually like this a lot on me. A bit heavy, but that could have to do with how stiff/crunchy it feels out of the blue bag. Might give it a soak to see if it softens up a little bit before wearing.
A little snug in the midsection, just a reminder that I should lose some weight. Better get on that.

@giles what would you suggest regarding possible further shrinkage?
-
@Max Power I don't know. I don't own one so have not put one through the wringer…..

@Max Power
I agree. That is a cracking fit in the shoulders and body, but the sleeves do look a tad too long.
Could you get away with any shrinkage in the body, to allow for shrinkage in the sleeves? -
Yes, I certainly could. Would have preferred the 22 " chest of the Large anyway, but then the shoulders would not have worked. I'll try to take a proper picture with Jeans outside. But I'm really not sure right now wether I can get used to the long sleeves.
-
Oh yes, you're right! That would be a great alternative (but an expensive one). In this case I might benefit from slightly baggy sleeves.
-
Thanks. Also a good option!

Sleeves look too big Max

Amazing fabric; substantial, sturdy feel, herringbone pops ever so subtly. Looking forward to this beaut relaxing with time and some water.
Well done IH gang!

Here is a couple of modest color comparison shots between the 154, 142, and 134
