What we don't see is @Oaktavia s clothing rack, filled with 24 and a half unfaded shirts that suffer neglect while he is living his 409 24/7 love affair.....

Thanks everyone I have loved fading this CPO. Can't wait to get it back to fade it more. Stoked as hell to see what y'all do to yours when they ship out. I have been looking forward to this for a little while now. @Tobi heh...not my first rodeo my friend, I wear mine to sleep y'know

Will @Iron-Heart-Germany be offering this beauty?
-
I want this bad but I think I have to sit it out since I just bought two shirts and have my lefty type3 ... Can't even wear these enough
-
Someone might have an answer for this: does this shirt feel stiff/ cardboard-y as ihsh-362? I know it is heavier, but that is not always the truth.
-
But compared to the 362 how breathable is it? I feel like my 16oz western does not let any air through
-
@FlavourFade I will leave breathability / comfort info to the man himself @Oaktavia who's been wearing it these past months!
-
@AdamJ thanks for the info!

Both 361 and 409 are heavy as hell, thick fabrics. 361 is smooth, uniform and dense. 409 is textured (but not slubby), rough and also dense. Hope that helps...it is hard for me to come up with more adjectives to describe the two. 409 is crispy and crunchy. 361/362 are bendy and stay in position when creased.

I will also say to those considering purchasing a 409, the sample was like a tailored fit for me. It was form fitting like a glove from day one and I only let it touch cold water, not hot water.
With IHs armpits being on the high side with some measurements on shirts, this one was definitely snug in the armpit area. Particularly underneath/bottom of the armpit, so it was not comfortable to wear anything besides a form fitting tshirt underneath. Anything a little loose in the sleeves tshirt wise would bunch up. So if you want to go for a for fitting/tailored look, which many of you folks on here prefer, consider this. The break in process was hard but totally worth it when the armpit fabric relaxed. Took me a couple of months before I stopped noticing it. So worth it if you like your shirts/CPOs this way.
If you go for a more relaxed fit as an outer layer, bearing in mine and remembering the fabric is a heavy as heck 19oz, it will be a much easier wear. I thought about getting another 409 for a shell layer, but I have my eyes set on my 361 next. Either way, this CPO is amazing imo.
Please let me know if anyone has any more questions. I am happy to help and answer the best I can. Stoked for Monday!

Thanks for the chart and @Oaktavia's input, will have to ponder the size over the weekend. Might just go roomy and relaxed on this one.
