IHSH-330-ODG - 9oz Raised Whipcord Western Shirt - Olive Drab Green

Has anyone washed theirs yet? Or does anyone know if and how this fabric will change over time? I‘ve felt it in store (amazing!), but I‘m hesitating as I‘m not sure how long the fabric will stay as nice as it is.

Don’t have one, but whipcord is tightly woven cotton. On the IH N-1’s it fades slowly and softens with wear. You can expect the same from most cotton fabrics.

It will certainly change with time because that is how IH make their clothes. Generally that is for the better.

I'm careful with mine, only gentle handwash with moderate temperatures so far, hang dry. Want to keep it as it is as long as possible. However, I agree with @neph93 , IH stuff generally ages wonderfully.

With machine washing and higher temperatures I would expect that it will loose a bit of its fluffiness…

Regretted selling my serge olive drab a while back so was happy I found one of these in my size still available. Love the material, fit and color…may upgrade the snaps to copper sometime down the road. The handfeel of the brushed whipcord is fantastic and hoping for more colors down the road.

Material is too good on this one!

Anyone have any pics of a beat up one of these?

I bought a "Military Serge" second-hand, and the IHSH-330-ODG arrived. Well, I should say, this was one of the best "mistakes". Fabric is incredibly comfy, beautiful, fit in my standard L is spot on, and I can say that shirt became a fav within a day.
Now I want the black one too...
(No seriously, I am super super in love with this thing)

This fabric is very much underrated. The black one was my first IH purchase.
