IHSH-43 Flannel Indigo Dyed Western Shirts
-
I have an OD flannel and it dosen't bleed. Not sure about these but fuck it since I wear black 90% of the time anyways.
-
that bit of info is very good to have. i always foolishly assumed if an item is dyed it will bleed.
who freckin' knew
-
I'm also interested in knowing how much bleeding occurs.
The od chambray transferred color only on the first few wears. I would assume this shirt has more because of the nature of indigo.
-
Yeah, probably little to none. Certainly after alot of wear. My OD type III never transfered that I noticed either but I also never wore with a white shirt. Black tees are primary for me all the time.
-
hey dr.p,
we need an indepth write up from you on one of these shirts.
i am actually looking forward to the tripleworks indigo dyed shirt with the red ventalition holes we got a peek at a few weeks back during the japan trip. think that will be my one indigo dyed shirt. . .
-
my suspicion: after the first wash you could wear whatever you want. If in doubt, wear black. I wear it anyways because I'm always fucking up my shirts (i dont get my ass back and head down when i eat, because i'm too ADD and distracted, like my cat).
-
I was considering getting this one but I really don't need another flannel at the moment and wanted a bit more data on how they will wear over time. I don't remember seeing anything similar from any brand. But I guess not knowing is half the fun….
-
yes it is.
do it doc
-
are we interested in the bleeding to see what wear/changes it will show or because we wear expensive undershirts?
I've worn mine a couple times and didn't notice anything but I'd also had a bit to drink and honestly don't care about bleeding. it's a shirt, I wear it.
I appreciate your analytical nature, doc. buy it and drop some science…
-
no my tees are not too expensive. i did grab a bunch of tees from the outlier as is sale & they aren't too shabby.
just curious how the hell the shirt will give up that dye & those black buttons, will that black chip away to reveal something else?
if i could get over the buttons i would get this shirt, but i just can't get around or over the buttons
G did mention something about putting standard buttons, maybe i hit him up & ask him about it . . .
-
I'm not worried about my t shirts but rather uneven fading. I saw this a bit in the lower back on the od chambray. It's most likely from sitting in a chair most of the day.
