IHT-3000 - Plain Loop Wheeled Shitimachi Body Tees - Black, Navy, White & Grey
-
Insomnia and an irritating fox in my garden necessitate a first time Iron Heart t-shirt buyer review. Sorry (madmonday) no pictures.
Quality
My first impression was that the fabric feels high quality, tougher than most, with a denser weave than other t-shirts I've owned. I feel pleasantly warmer than usual when wearing the Iron Heart t-shirt and did not expect that.I have a very nice 3sixteen 'Heavyweight plain tee' that 3sixteen says is made of "a robust 9oz. jersey fabric", but it feels lighter than Iron Heart's 7.5oz tee. Odd.
I love the loopwheeled construction method; t-shirts look and feel better with no side seams. After several wash and dry cycles it looks as good as new and is becoming softer. I imagine it will age very well.
Measurements
I have a 39 inch chest but ordered a size S - 36 because the indicated 19.5 inch shoulders on a size M would be way too big for me.The arm opening measurement (6.8" or 17.3 cm) is big for me, but the body has a good fitted look and is a spot-on perfect length for me to wear untucked.
I might have copped a rogue t-shirt though, because the shoulder measurement on mine is 17.1 inches but the size chart says 18.0". The chest and opening measurement is 19.4" but the size chart says 18.5". Luckily for me, these differences mean the shoulders and body fit perfectly. Unluckily for me, it means I don't know whether another size S-36 will be the same or too tight in the chest

Ask us to measure before we ship…..

You are too kind Giles, especially as I recall you writing that you hardly make any money on the t-shirts.
As I wrote in a recent email to Matt, this kind of customer service is what makes Iron Heart UK so much better than other online retailers. Many thanks.

Sorry if this is answered elsewhere but do the xls have side seams?
-
Does the large navy really have a longer length than the XL?
-
The ones we measured, yes.
But as the product page says:
Please note: sizing is inconsistent from colour to colour, this is reflected in the sizing chart - the measurements will also vary a little within each colour, so please contact us if a specific dimension (length, for example) is important to you and we will check what’s available

I want that for you too. But that would mean IH would have to make PURPLE tees again. I think that is a good idea. An IHT Rainbow seems like an essential bit of kit…
