Y2 IR-42, IHSH-389-IND, 888-nin

Indigo Single Rider (IR-42). Around 20 wears in, getting some creasing on the arms and shoulder mobility is getting better… but this is going to take I think ~100 wears before it’s comfortable!

I’m sorry, did you say -TWENTY ONE- oz work shirt?

For what it’s worth, I used to be a huge Arc’teryx fan. They were subsequently sold to Anta (a Chinese company), who left the BCI (better cotton initiative) to continue using cotton from the Xinjiang region of China (where forced/slave labor of Uighar muslims to work crop fields has been reported). Of course, I’m not an international trade expert, or cotton expert, or clothing expert, or… you get the point. I also don’t support 3Sixteen (India) and Post O’alls (China) for reasons in the same bucket. Again, I’m not an expert, I can’t say I have even a tenth of the information, and I could be completely wrong in my decision.

Iron heart appears to be a company that supports ethical manufacturing, fair pay for workers, environmentally conscious sourcing and development practices, and just plain appears to treat people well. It’s becoming harder and harder to find clothing companies to purchase from that can say all of those things. So, very grateful to you guys and the work that you do!

1. That 21 oz monster sashiko shirt
2. The duck bomber I’m going to wear over it
3. The Tiger camo pants I’ll be wearing with the above combo as we survive the post-apocalyptic wasteland

7 wears in; XXL on 6’1”, 210 pounds. The arms were quite tight initially, but have loosened up nicely with wear!

Damn you all. In for one from Iron Shop Provisions

@JerkStore it probably eats it alive, buttons and all

It’s an absolutely beautiful shirt! That being said, if it’s sold out online, I’m sure we’ll all be able to find another amazing indigo IH shirt in its stead! I believe in each and every one of you and your ability to buy another blue shirt

@corralitos size charts are usually finalized a couple of days before release, so you should know in advance! Best of luck!

Do you guys think the fades will be something like this?

@dinobarnesberlin This is the one!

Given the number of times it’s come up, I think we should reach a compromise between the ‘W’ and ‘no W’ people. That’s right, I think we should turn it sideways into an ‘M’. This will make everyone happy. I will not be asking for feedback or thoughts on this idea, thank you.

@dinobarnesberlin thank you so much!!!

Starting to get some beautiful light evolution at the arm creases

@Alex thank you so much! That’s quite a stunner!

9Lives: Makes 18oz sashiko fabric
Haraki-San: Hold my sake

(as an aside, very excited to see what IH does with 9Lives in the future)

For those that have had the opportunity to try it on… true to your IH shirt size? Or go one down? Thank you!

@Oaktavia completely agree… I messaged the seller to ask if they were open to offers, and didn’t hear back, so I imagine it’s firm

@alexxedge (as a childhood Falcons fan) unless he’s interested in a lifetime of sadness and pain, I wouldn’t sell him the Falcons either
