Is the Indigo Terry Crew Neck the same thickness as the Large Loop Terry hoodies, or is it more of a long sleeve crew neck "tee shirt"?

2 Questions

1. For my size you guys advised me to get a L and that hoodie fit well. Do I go with the same size for shirts as well? (40' chest, 6'4)

2. Anyplace other than 4horseman selling the new plaid shirts? Don't want to pay customs again, I'm in the US

Overall, I'm pretty underwhelmed with S/S11. Nothing really pops out to me and I don't really understand the higher price on essentially everything. The only things I like are the sweats and the large loop terry hoodies and I already have them, haha.

For those that were wondering we ship using Canada Post which hands off to USPS. We use an expedited business option which is supposed to take 4 days to the US. It is usually longer than that, but it definitely shouldn't be taking 2 weeks or anything.

As for customs, any of the made in Canada stuff won't be charged duty and for other things we typically mark the value down. Most packages pass through without any additional fees.

I would say a large for sure. For the plaid shirts you either have to go with our friendly neighbors to the north or wait for a domestic stockist which should be 1.5 weeks or so. how bad ya want it?

People latched onto a comment I made a few pages back about waiting 2 weeks for a package. They sit at usps customs/inspection at the us entry point and sometimes can get held up there for various reasons. "Origin post is preparing shipment" is most likely what tracking will read until you get it in your city/town post office. Shipping from CA is fine. You pay for international service. Thanks for the updates, guy. looking forward to seeing the rest. just takin it all in..

Alright, let's see. Anything over $200, I get charged a custom, so if the shirt is $221. Do you mark the value down so that it will be under $200 on customs or do you mean wait until it's on sale?

i ordered small (true to size) in everything. a lot of people like to size up one from their normal size for a slightly more relaxed fit as w+h tends to fit rather snug. if snug is your thing then go true..

Still waiting for those damn polos. Are the fits on the SS BD's same as the FW flannels?

being they're most likely out of the same factory and appear to be based on the same cut, I would say yes. unsure of the polos. i think last year they came out a little later too..

this weekend i'll get some real fits up

coat doesn't look bad in this pic, but in person, much better..(my opinion, of course..)

I liked it all the way up until I checked the price! Wings & Horns do make some great quality pieces but I can't justify it.

Thanks. I'm going to get some nice fits this weekend. Actually hoping for some rain this time around.. I've worn it every day since I received it. The weather has been fluctuating like wild. Doesn't matter. Rockin' the black mack. Pant color doesn't matter, shoe/belt color doesn't matter -- it's just all currently about the black mack. I've been pairing it with just about everything and it's been up for the challenge and looking solid.
