IHSH-331-BLK - 12oz Moleskin CPO Shirt - Black
-
I will never be able to find it, but there was someone who painted the copper snaps on his shirt with black translucent nail polish or something, and it looked amazing. Looked even better when it started wearing off again. I don’t even remember what shirt it was. Maybe a 99?

just ordered one of those
@Iron Heart Germany
pretty excited how the moleskin is…. -
I just ordered one of these in size large, and look forward to adding it to my small IH CPO collection. I might take Giles' suggestion and try the black Sharpie snap treatment.
I have the 18 oz. black overdye version from about a year ago. The black overdye CPO will be hard to top, but I look forward to this moleskin variant!
-
Anyone know how the sizing on this one compares to the selfedge variant?

My snap swap decision wasn't based on the selvedge ID,but for me,as much as I loved the brass snaps on the Olive 331,they didn't work for me on the black version. When they first made the Over dyed 178 the snaps ended up looking kind of silvery/pewtery which I would've loved on this shirt. Sometimes wish there was a different,other than brass,material,option for that iconic IH snap.
Hello, recently purchased the green and asked for black snaps to be put on. Did this decision work out well for you or did the marks not go away from the previous buttons that were removed? Thank you !
-
Great. Thank you! Looking forward to this one! You loving it? I’m wearing the self edge one as we speak. Very excited to see the difference in weight and fabric on this new version!
-
It really is like a suede. I figured that was how the Moleskin finish got it’s name. Mmmmmm. Substantial heavier/denser would you say?
-
There’s only a 2OZ difference in the fabric weights,and I’d be lying if I told you could feel/tell the difference. Don’t know if it’s my imagination but it feels like it’s less warm than I think I remember the other one feeling. I look forward to hearing your thoughts/observations as you’ll have them side by side.

Just washed this sensational shirt the second time. One of my favorites in spring, worn it a lot . Definitely underrated if you ask me . The moleskin is awesome to wear, heavy but soft and not too warm. And even it’s still very dark, there’s some fades noticeable at high wear areas.

looking good @Daniel-San
I've got the olive but struggling to put it into rotation. Curious if you've seen any shrinkage on this from the washings? -
@pechelman
no permanent shrinkage . just the normal shrink that comes with washing and stretch back within 1-2 hours wear. So no need to worry if you wash with low temperature.
