IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo
-
My first Iron Heart shirt. An absolute beauty. First impressions a very substantial yet soft cotton which drapes well. Absolutely dripping with indigo. The Medium fits absolutely perfectly. Just for reference I’m 5 foot 9 and around 11 stone unclothed. Uploaded a few iPhone selfies of the shirt so excuse the quality of the photos.

Well done @Michael1984 it is a great shirt that just gets better the more you wear and wash it. I've had mine for two years now and it is a pleasure to put on every time. Fit looks good, with enough room to lose the cm in most directions that will go with the first wash.

@neph93 Thanks! I intend to hand-wash it maybe once every few months if I can get away with it in cold or lukewarm water with a mild liquid denim detergent. A clothes brush should hopefully come in handy for small stains. Looking forward to it ageing well.

@Giles Thanks! Great service from Iron Heart as always. Hope everyone is keeping well.

This is one of my favourite shirts.
It's interesting to compare the fit with Michael1984, as I am 5'10" and just shy of 12 stone (about 75kg) and I wear a size large. It fits very well and I like the fact that it gives me room to manoeuvre while not looking baggy or too big. I could probably get away with a size medium but I think it'd be a bit snug.
Perhaps that's useful info for anyone thinking of buying this shirt.

@going_to_battle Agreed it’s a fantastic shirt. Not sure if you’ve washed it yet but I’ve heard there is a small amount of shrinkage after a hot wash so I think you did well getting the large.

Mine is pretty old now and has been washed lots of times. You’re right, that’s another reason not to go for a L over a M if you’re a similar size to me.
