The 526J will not change in size, nor will it be made in XXXXL.  I am making a leftie trucker in 19oz LHT, that will have longer arms and a longer body that the 526J, but the chest will remain as is.  Sorry.

All this news sounds great for IH crew and customers.  Did you guys decide on what cut for the sample blue warp/blue weft?
I'll prob do 634S and 666s

Did you and H get as far as deciding on contrast stitching or maybe an equally dark indigo stitching?

Mrs Snowy and I would both like to move over there, it's STUPID hard to get a job/visa for there. Only 7 IT jobs in all of Tokyo being advertised, most need a high level of Japanese to even begin applying.

too many days are wasted comparing ourselves to others & wishing to be sth. we aren't. It's only when you accept everything you're - and aren't - that you will truly succed!

My guess is about 50% thicker - But if anyone has an IHSH-70 - it is the same fabric..../

I'm with MadMonday on this one, the IHSH-70 is my best fitting shirt. I'm definitely getting the green one when it drops. I'm hoping sizing is exactly the same as the 70.

BAM :-* let´s hope the sizing stays the same as well. green and blue calls my name!
