Any idea on if these shrink when washed and dried?

My wife was lucky enough to borrow my shirt tonight, as she forgot her sweater at home.

For any Austin people, we were at Tatsumi, which is our favorite restaurant in town.

Just wanted to say I stopped by the Austin location today and had a great experience.

Can I see what the brass snaps look like on it?

Long sleeve western version of the IHSH-285-PIN

Gee, I hope there are enough to go around… Maybe I should’ve kept that idea to myself.

@Ross yes, thanks. It looks fantastic.

Can I see what one of the pearl snaps looks like on this?

@orion213:

Hi all, does it still hold true that white can't be worn under it as per Filthy's indigo inked white shirt? I imagine after a few washes it can be worn safely, but just wanted to confirm before I ruin a Whitesville.

I got mine in 2019, and I’ve not had any trouble with it since the first few wears. Also, I find transferred indigo washes off pretty easily on undershirts.

A moleskin work vest.

Will there be a restock of the short sleeve or the western in this fabric?

@tecnica222:

What would a very hot wash/dry do to this one? The L looks slightly large on paper, and am wondering if nuking might do the trick?

Mine tightened up some with warm wash and dry, but nothing significant. I’m wearing a large in the picture before your post. I go back and forth between M and L in IH shirts (chest and length are the determiners for me).

First wear. Feels softer and lighter than the IHSH-285-IND.

I bought the indigo originally, and loved it so much I bought a mint and a backup indigo from the outlet. Really great shirts.

I bought the orange Patton. I did not find the fabric shiny to start. It has become more muted after washing.

My son won his first tennis tournament today.

My brother Doug died unexpectedly last week. He was just 40. He was a big IH fan too, but I don’t think he ever joined the forum.

He has 14 year old twin sons, and they’re already wearing some of his clothes.

One of his wife’s (well-meaning) friends told her she’ll want to throw all his clothes away soon. His wife told me her answer was along the lines of “Are you kidding? I’m keeping every single thing, and the boys and I will be fighting over who gets to wear what.”

Anyway, if you have someone you love that you haven’t seen in person or talked to on the phone in a while, do what you can to remedy that. Not even your next minute is guaranteed.

My two favorite IH jeans are the Pronto 10 year anniversary and the 555S-16. And I’ve been thinking hard about trying an 888 fit. So a 16oz Pronto 888 was a no brainer for me.

@Filthy:

I've been fantasizing about wearing these all day. Laying in bed and struggling to get the top button done up…. it's nice to have such things to look forward to.

I'm not sure what I'd be thinking about if I wasn't obsessing over denim.  Probably something bad

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

IH clothing: a great way to keep you out of trouble (so long as your wife doesn’t study your finances too closely).

@Ben
Yes, thank you very much. Those figures are dangerously appealing.
