@RubyRae Thanks!

[FourHorsemen]

@nrtphotos Thanks guys, much appreciated! Looking forward to both of them. IH should be here Wednesday. SJ not until “before end of the year”, so I’ll have Fall and part of Winter to break the IH in a bit

@RubyRae they actually released the 389 CPO back I want to say in April. I picked one up and it’s by far my favorite IH I have owned. I want to say it’s 12oz but still it’s a head turner I get compliments all the time.

[Tago Mago]

@clutchdealer Close, it was released in March. 12oz is absolutely correct

Got both my large and XL today. As mentioned I ordered the large first and then was worried I'd need a size up after the talk here and ordered an XL asap . Looked at the large as I was taking measurements and thought it would be good visually, but upon putting it on, it's very fitted. Arms are tight when I cross my chest. Ill get some pics after the wind dies down but as of now I'm probably keeping the size up.

Got in on Saturday.
Fits as expected. A little snug around the chest-armpit/front shoulder area. Hopefully it loosens up with wear.
The texture of the fabric makes it an instant favorite.

@jaliskoe looks so rad! Love that metal pencil (?)

Decided to add some spice to mine as well…

[Denimminer]

This is the large. I think it is pretty good and if I didn't have the XL to compare id probably be happy enough and just be careful washing but going through all my pics, i have let go of my shirts that fit like this eventually as I hated getting sweaty pits from it riding there. I love the look but I feel maybe I'm just getting older

Here is the XL the only thing I'm not a fan of ATM is the back view, kinda big. But I think I'll be able to wash this without a care and probably turn out ok. Thoughts?

[Mizmazzle]

@Denimminer man…I think you’re going to have to go with what feels best to you.

Personally, I think the large looks spot on. But I hear what you’re saying about the pits being a bit snug. That’s how mine feels too. I do think the fabric is going to loosen up nicely with some wear, but perhaps not so much under the arms.

The XL doesn’t look sloppy by any means. Maybe a bit boxy/ billowy in the body. But once it softens up I’d imagine you’ll get a more relaxed drape , plus the overall comfort you’re looking for.

Overall, I think the large looks best IMO

@Mizmazzle

Thanks man! GAH buttons are so dope! Really diggin the placement

[Anesthetist]

@Denimminer I have the same issue. I love the trimmer look but cant stand the tight pits. I went XL and imagine it will settle in after wear and washing.

[Mizmazzle]

@jaliskoe they are much brighter in person than in the photos. Fun to experiment. Cool thing about buttons is they can be moved or removed…Gonna rock em for awhile and see how the evo moves me.

That was my problem as well. The pits and the biceps just didn’t work.

[popvulture]

I ended up sending both the XL and XXL back — this one just wasn’t in the cards for me. To be fair, work cut has never been my jam, because when I pick a shoulder measurement that fits, often the body ends up too wide. Didn’t notice the pits on the XL but @Matt i definitely noticed the biceps being uncomfortable.

@Denimminer I totally agree with Mizz that yours looks like a great fit.

[Matt]

Sorry it didn’t work. In the end I feel like sizing up gives me more of an Untucked kind of fit which I don’t mind at all.

[Mizmazzle]

@Matt did you keep one in size large?

[CosmoSix5]

found one! Withered Fig! Now I just hope it fits.

[popvulture]

I could’ve done the XL but considering the cost, it just wasn’t dialed enough for me to be happy with it. Plus I looked at my 295 that I haven’t worn nearly enough and figured it’d more than meet the need.
