@that_was_easy:

Edit: ERM, XL, por favor. 

Gonna quote this to ensure correct sizing and give Giles the heads up in case it went unoticed.  Also, super stealth price point???

[Giles]

TWE.  OK so that is the last XL folks.  Same as IHSH-08 -  $340…G

[that_was_easy]

Damn, barely made it…

[Giles]

Urgent representations were made to Haraki and all you big boys out there, you are in luck.

I'm getting XXL's and XXXL's

Giles

[madmonday]

salute G.

XXL for me

[Giles]

Monday, how did I know that you would be the first to react…...? G

[hangten]

Will there be anymore XLs?  If so I would like to get on the list!

[Giles]

You ask me, I reserve one and put it in your virtual stack.  You let me down, I get pissed off.  Easy…G

[that_was_easy]

G, are these part of the shippment held up at customs?

[Giles]

No - not out of the work-shops until 30th….G

@Giles:

No - not out of the work-shops until 30th….G

So tomorrow these will be on their way?!?!

[Giles]

Well.  Out of the workshops means just that.  They then have to get to Hachioji for Haraki and the crew to second QC.  Then they have to do a count, apportion, pack and ship.

So short answer…..No....G

Thank you for that clarification Sir G!

I've read through people's sizing observations in the 08 thread, but owing to different body types/shapes/sizes/etc. it doesn't seem like any fast conclusions were reached, as is with any clothing.

I have this in my stack, in size XL.  I'm almost certainly an L in most every IH top, perhaps excluding the 08.  The shoulders for the L IHSH-08 are 17.3" which is right at my smaller limit (approx. 18.5 is dead on) and so I'm wondering if the slimness due to high armholes.  Is this accurate?  If so, I'd rather order the L first and exchange if needed.  It's getting to crunch time and I want to be as sure as possible to avoid costly trans-oceanic frieght costs, both for myself and IHUK!  Yes, this is a request for hand holding…

If you wanna wear something underneath the 08, or just want to be able to breath, I'd go with an XL…

E: you also shouldn't be thinking about the shoulders too much, but more about the chest measurement...

[that_was_easy]

Former swimmer here, so my chest/shoulder comparison is slightly uncommon.  Any reason the chest measurement is something to lookout for?  Does the construction tend to pull the fabric towards the sides, making it hard to button up?  Certainly wanna leave the corsets to the IH women!

I would like to layer (hoodie) some.  The layering is probably my biggest concern with ordering an L. It seems like some folks accomplish this and went TTS.

[Seul]

Go with an XL. If that doesn't fit, feel free to swim across the ocean to come kick my arse.

E: I'm a size Small in the IHSH-22 and therefore in most IH shirt, but have contemplated buying a size L in the 08… The M fits perfectly, albeit very tight... Tighter than other sized S shirts...

[Splattered]

Man you guys are confusing the hell out of me with the IH08 sizing haha I don't know whether to go with an L or XL… arghh
