IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

[AdamJ]

@pechelman this version certainly has a lot more heft and is more robust

[Mizmazzle]

@AdamJ I’m wondering how easy it is to button up? Any insight there would be much appreciated!!

[AdamJ]

@Mizmazzle Depends how often you're training thumbs in the gym

[AdamJ]

@Mizmazzle jokes aside, it buttons up like any other IH shirt I've tried

[Mizmazzle]

@AdamJ have yall installed a thumb press there at the stubborn crew in house gym??

@AdamJ In the first photo of this it looks like it has a really deep pocket compared to a normal IH work shirt (comparing to my 307 serge), like 1/2" more depth. Am I seeing this right and if so, is it intentional?

[pechelman]

@AdamJ thanks. More I was wondering handfeel as I recalled the current version feeling a bit coarse and slightly airy. This looks much more tightly woven, maybe smoother handfeel? But is it softer? Guessing less breathable too?

[AdamJ]

@pechelman Give me a couple and I'll do a side by side comparison

[AdamJ]

The IHSH-397 is more coarse to touch, heavier and more sturdy than the IHSH-380. I have the latter and have been wearing it in the warm-ish conditions lately and it's been fine. The weave on this one feels tighter yes so I would think it's definitely more suited to the cold seasons. Won't be your next summer vacation shirt

Thanks so much @AdamJ !
The side-by-side is especially nice of you.

@AdamJ youve even got me excited with this pic @AdamJ and ive tried it on

That’s a beauty of a shirt great choice for a fade comp ……… fade potential

[Oaktavia]

@jordanscollected I thought the same...

[guiltyparty]

This one is insane. Cannot wait.

This fabric looks awesome. Can't help but imagine some other pieces made from it.

... like a CPO

[isXnext]

... or a work vest

[BD81]

This as a CPO would be the bees knees

[BD81]

Pockets on the work shirt would also do

[clutchdealer]

I doubt they would make this into a CPO at anytime since they already made the 389 CPO which falls in between the other 2. Not saying it would be nice to have the 21oz in a CPO version, but I believe they are trying to slim down on a bunch of the same shirts in different cuts.
