Six months wear. Now needs its first wash……

Blue popping everywhere already
Wash tomorrow weather permitting. -
Can anyone compare this shirt to the military serge shirt? I’m really tempted to pull the trigger soon on one of these. My size L black serge western is the best fitting shirt I’ve ever worn.. so I’d like to hear a comparison if possible because I know the fabrics are very different. Thanks!!

The IH western cut is very similar in all its iterations. There are some minor differences in sizing between models but you can check those by comparing measurements using the «Compare» function on the website. In this case sizing is quite similar actually.
The fabrics are actually very similar if you ignore colour and pattern. Both are made of serge. Both are around 12oz and both are twill weaves. They have a similar heft and hand. Otherwise construction and detailing is the same on both shirts.
The major difference is that one is sulphur dyed olive and the other is indigo dyed with wabash dots.

That helps a lot. Thank you!

I’ve been lurking here for a while and it’s time for my first post. I have a couple of items from IH, but this shirt is most worn as I use it as my work shirt (gardener). I have it my second season and wearing it during Australia’s winter (I’m not an aussie so excuse my english
️). Yesterday I gave the shirt a good but gentle brush wash (with brush Im using for my boots, I think its made with pig’s hair). Now the white popped out nicely. Im washing it weekly, but the dirt was so deep penetrated, that I was confused last couple of weeks. The result is great!

Looks incredible, @Wolfer ! Love the fading in the yoke and the white horizontal of the honeycombs against the vertical Wabby. I just got some Wabash overalls, you're providing some motivation

@Wolfer That is a nicely faded pair. Looks epic.

Wow, they look fantastic
How is the sizing at overalls in comparison to the classic jeans? -

Maybe its just a weird thing of mine, but I love seeing people absolutely Destroying Iron Heart gear.
Its like taking it to the limit on what these clothes can actually endure. Iron to the Bone indeed. -
What's up all,
Newbie to the IH forum and the IHSH-62 is my very first brand new IH garment.
It's amazing and already looking for another IH shirt.
I'm 5'10" wearing size small, the 62 is a touch of longer than my other shirts.
Just saw the earlier discussion soak with 90c might help on shrinkage.Had tried first soak with very hot soak but it probably only 60-70C, for 10mins.
I did not dare to soak it too long cause afraid of indigo lose…
But it apparently not shrunk at all. Just a little bit softer to wear.Should I have another try with exact 90C? I wish I have 1" shorter in sleeve & length.
Thanks~~
Lucas
