IHSH-33-OD - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black

[selvedgejack]

Thank you neph93!

I did not consider the heftiness of the fabric as much as I should have. I’ve measured a work shirt I also enjoy wearing that closer resembles the fabric as opposed to my favorite shirt is a chambray button down.

So when I ordered, my IH sales person said the shirt they have is actually 18.5 shoulders and 22 p2p. My work shirt is actually 18.5 as well and my chest is 21.5 on both so I am satisfied. When I move my arms around with the work shirt, the heavier fabric acts a lot differently than the chambray button down so I think I ordered the L correctly.

I’ll update later this week when I get it. Hopefully future buyers will find this exchange useful!

Looking forward to hearing/seeing how it goes @selvedgejack

I am not sure why there are not more posts about this shirt. It is so awesome in person. I have the IHSH-178, which is a beast, but this holds its own. I'd love to see more pictures of a couple months wear.

I like it. It's a great shirt

Bought the 33B around one year ago. Since then a trusty companion on my travels if I need a light "jacket".

Really love the shirt.

Did you do a soak on that shirt when you first got it?  Any agitation to start a little fade?

@D-Hess Ah sorry, I just saw you asked me a question.
No, I didn't soak it at the start. Just wore it quite a lot in the first year and the fades will come quite quickly.

I've been wearing the shirt more often. Everyone mistakes it for a jacket but hey that's Iron Heart for you.

I understand that the overdyeing process makes this shirt a size smaller than it otherwise would be, which presumably accounts for Sam taking an L instead of the usual M. But then what accounts for Giles taking two sizes larger than Sam rather than the usual one? (I ask because 'one size larger than Giles' seems to be a pretty good rule for me!)

[Wlemon]

@Yltas I too follow the "one-larger-than-@Giles" rule. We seem to overlap sometimes, though. I have an XXL in this shirt. I'm normally around a 23.2 inches pit to pit and the shirt fits me perfectly. Hope that helps.

Actually @Sam  has been taking L’s for a while now. Too many pies [emoji23]

I believe @Giles (and @Sam, I was only jesting earlier) sizes up in this beacause of the length. It would come up very short on a tall guy. It is worth mentioning that G increasingly wears XL’s also.

Thanks guys, that's really helpful. @Wlemon your pics have been influential in steering me towards this shirt actually!

[Wlemon]

That's awesome! It's an underated western imo. It seems like there are some core IH products that go under the radar. I think it's because of all the awesome special releases. Anyway, I love this one. Part of me wished I "pimped" it; however, and I can't say for certain, the snaps on my seem different, like they also went through the overdyed process. They have a muted black look to them in person, almost as if they were dark blue. I'll take a picture when I get home.

@neph93 I was feeling outraged by that comment until I noticed I was eating a slice of pizza for breakfast… 

[neph93]

We all know you have the physique and louche poise of a top male model and the metabolism of an 18 year old @Sam . I bet you couldn’t get fat if you tried [emoji8]

For me one of the most underrated pieces of Iron Heart.
Now over 2.5yo but only wore it for about 1 year. I don’t know but I find it hard to combine to a Denim jean so I didn’t wore as much as I wanted to. Now I got the Devils Duck and I will wear the hell out of it. Love the combination of the duck canvas and denim shirt.
