IHSH-389-IND - 12oz Dobby Cloth CPO Shirt - Indigo

[Daniel San]

received mine yesterday. just did a short try on.
it’s indeed pretty short, which I really like
And the forearms are tight, but I think it will work with a little wear and a wash . Will definitely soften up and stretch a little.
awesomeness shirt

[Matt]

You’ve convinced me all. I’ll just wear it and stop thinking. Should have just taken my own usual advice from the start.

[Tobi]

Now you all got me worried about the length as well, I knew it was a bit risky to brake my own rule of not going below 30" in length for shirts.. . In Germany until Sunday, and a brown bag with a hopefully long enough XXL waiting back in Denmark.

[sabergirl]

I would size up if I were you, but I know you don’t want to do that. Does it look fine? Yes. But if it bugs you already, you’re never going to be satisfied with it, and you know it.

[goosehd]

I agree with Ann. Once the question was asked, you already knew.

[SKT]

+2 for what Ann just said

@jat

So sorry for the delay my man. Please find some pics below. These of snaps are really hard to take off due to the fabric and how hard the copper has been stamped in so I have replaced one snap and then laid couple on top as well to give you a good idea.

[Matt]

Dammit guys.

@Matt The shoulders, sleeves, and chest look great.

The hem looks a bit tight on your right side and the left side looks short. I find it really strange that one side is shorter than the other. Have you measured the length from the armpit to the hem on both sides to compare?

Can you cross your arms and touch the opposite shoulder? Can you touch your toes? These are the two tests I use to determine if a shirt is too small.

[Matt]

Not only have I decided to return this bit I’m also gong to sell my fleece cpo that fits similarly. This shirt has wreaked all kinds of havoc in my closet.

[jordanscollected]

good choice Matt. You have too many shirts to reach for one you aren't 100% happy with

[Matt]

Agreed. Thanks for all the feedback everyone.

[Tago Mago]

@Matt if only you had some stuff in my size that you desperately want to get rid of. Life's not fair. In other news, my XL is waiting for me to be picked up on Monday. I'm not overly optimistic that I can get the fit right.

[ARNC]

@Matt but also freed up space for future acquisitions!

[Matt]

Undoubtedly.

[pechelman]

now slightly nervous about this being delivered today

[Denimminer]

Mine is delayed by weather, now I can just continue hoping it fits!

[SaddleSC]

These look really short in overall length, not for a shirt in general, but for a CPO shirt. I have the IHSH-293 OD CPO and it is slightly longer than a typical shirt. Not sure I would like a CPO as short as this one appears...would it not make the pockets too high to be useful?

[Luijim78]

@SaddleSC the longest CPO 293od? mine is shorter than all the other CPOs I have of the same size, in fact the 380 work shirt looks a lot like it in my opinion
