IHSH-409-IB - 19oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo/Black

[Oaktavia]

@Jett129 I learned a bit about composition during my undergrad. It helps a bit when taking denim photos. Thanks for the kind words

[Fadez]

Yeah dude. I’m loving every bit of this. Great work on the CPO

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia lol this is the eternal struggle, regarding washing. And the photos are great, the lighting really makes the depth of color pop

[WhiskeySandwich]

Another thing I like about this CPO is that the inside of the cuff is a liner and not a double thick denim. Idk if that would be necessary on my 16oz, but good call on a 19oz.
Also to note, idk if it’s the lighting, but the weft doesn’t look quite black? Whatever is going on, it’s making for a great hue on the exterior.

The weft looks like a dark blue/black in person. Definitely darker than the warp though.

My lovely wife survived a smell test for this shirt this evening after we got home from work. I asked her if it was time for a wash and she nodded. Said it was musty stinky man smell. That's enough for me y'all. Into the wash it went and it's drip drying as I type.

Big Skynrd fan here. Fun fact: I recently found one of their LPs in a horse stable under some leaves at my MIL's house. Still works. Apparently it belonged to some ex-roomates of hers. Strange world.

@Daniel-San So am I, will post photos when dry.

@Tago-Mago @DeeDee85 @XPender thanks, dudes.

[dinobarnesberlin]

that's a sign ! Amazing that it still played.

[Oaktavia]

@dinobarnesberlin I told my wife to just leave it there but she persisted. Had to dust the thang off but it plays. There was another one that was warped that I melted in the oven to make into a stash bowl.

Post wash number one. I soaked this beast before throwing it in the washer but still ended up with slight marbling. I like it though!

[Jett129]

@Oaktavia Running out of accolades to bestow on you for what you’ve accomplished with this shirt. All I can say is that Filthy is smiling down on you from up in Fade Heaven,although he might prefer to be in Fade Hell. Either way you have to believe he would approve of your endeavors.

[Oaktavia]

@Jett129 I appreciate the kindness my friend. He would have loved to fade one of these shirts. We'll join him in Hell soon enough.

@Oaktavia
phenomenal dude
looks awesome
I think it’s almost impossible to get no marbling on ib shirts when doing a machine wash , even with soaking and no spin. Maybe with a super hand wash care program .
