Thanks. So just stick with a 44 in the green diamond shirt if that is what I get my other FH shirts in? The other 44's fit me, but are very slim. The glory park flannel was the only one so far that was too slim even with a 44.

Here they are... (view)

They are super-duper tight in the thighs... not more than I can remember with my 34 Rescues but I guess I still have to soak these, right?

Or is that asking for trouble?

Thanks for the feedback.

Soaking will only make them tighter. I would wear them for a few weeks to stretch them out a bit, before deciding to soak. Then put them on while still slightly damp so that they don't shrink beyond comfort in the thighs.

Alright, I will shoot for two weeks and then soak. Warm soak for 30 minutes + line dry sounds good?

Thanks again.

Really? That looks tight even for a post-soak fit... why would you not suggest exchanging for one size up? Not trying to stir the pot or anything, but a fit this tight guarantees a crotch blowout...

I'd be more worried about a scrotal blowout.

Funny you should mention that.. Just made plans to have lunch with the president of Skulls next week in Tokyo. We should be at a final design by then... But nothing will be out before the winter at the soonest. We've still got three big ones before then.
