Does anyone find that the flannels and the quilted blackwatch shirt run big relative to the poplins. I wear a large in the poplins and oxfords, but I am swimming in the large in the flannels and the quilted blackwatch.

I am thinking of posting my NWT quilted blackwatch shirt (size L) that I got from the Unionmade sale in "Buying and Selling". Kindly let me know if anyone is looking for the Large.

You guys think it's possible to purposely shrink a shirt. There seems to be some good sales on XL, I am normally a large, but have to wash and hand dry. I was wondering if i got an XL, washed in hot water then dried on high heat, would it be close to a L.

It's possible but I wouldn't do it. When you shrink fabric like that it doesn't shrink evenly or it causes bunching at the seems. Better to buy what fits best off the rack.

I agree with Kensington. Also I'm pretty sure Gitman pre-washes their shirts so I wouldn't count on much shrinkage.

Are there any floral, Hawaiian or other 'summer' print shirts on sale.

Going down to the Caribbean for the first time in a while and I need some new vacation shirts.
not sure if its on deep discount anywhere but I really like the bahia tropical shirt. Needsupply normally has a discount code floating around on this site somewhere.
