If anyone would like to stage an intervention, that would be great.
Lately I've been considering picking up an indigo workshirt, which would be my second and my third wabash shirt overall. I might need one these "intervention" things soon, too.

Lately I've been considering picking up an indigo workshirt, …
….so do I. But it is not available in my size at the moment.
What about a wabash workshirt with snaps @xtcclassic @Chris ?That would be new and doesn’t require an intervention ;-)).

I prefer the fit of the westerns, so I’m good there. And there’s a red chambray western in the works, so if you all let me down on the whole intervention thing, that’s probably going to be my next serious temptation.

There is always a lack between serious temptations and Noninterventioned Needs.
Once owned the Los Pinguinos chambray. What should I say… 8). -
I like your thinking, @Aetas.
My wabash workshirt has snaps, which is why I'm considering getting one with buttons… -

Is that a bottle of Blantons Gold I see on the shelf? @xtcclassic

I’m just going to live in this shirt from now on.

This is my go-to pub shirt. Tough as old boots. I don't know why it seems thicker than the same weight 33, but it does.
-
Great fit. I think the 62 has the best taper at the waist of all the IH shirts I own.
Not sure why that is, but ALL IH westerns should taper like this.

@xtcclassic 's shirt looks so good that we have had a SMALL RESTOCK

Hi folks,
I promise I’ll properly introduce myself in the right topic, been sniffing around for some time now and that is just inappropriate behavior, besides that I now have some IH stuff to show as well [emoji57].
Anyhow, I have found something really nice on my doorstep today a 62 and I am stoked about the shirt.
I do have a question about sizing tho. Mine is a size L and it is bit too roomy. Downsizing won’t work that’ll be too smal.I have read that some members soaked their shirt while others machine washed on 90 degrees for two times. Soaking seems pretty harmless I guess but what about the machine wash option? What happens to the garment more precisely the colour? Won’t the colour fade? And what would it mean to the fades in the future?
Here is a crappy picture of me and my beloved new shirt:

Hi, and welcome to the forum @bob_z
Hard to judge from the photo, but it looks good and will look better with a little shrinkage.
Normal regular washing gives shrinkage over time. To get the shrinkage you need, do a hot wash. To get max shrinkage go for 90C with low or no spin. But soak the shirt thoroughly first with the shower head, inside and out.
One hot wash will make very little difference to the colour and will not affect potential fading at all. Fading on these shirts requires regular and continued wear. That will make the shirt dirty and smelly. You will then need to wash it. Wearing and washing, wearing and washing, that is how fading happens. This IHSH-68-IND (same material) has been worn and washed many, many times over the years.
