That's certainly pretty consistent wearing in a year and some change David.
I'm well impressed.

That's definitely the right advice I think Oaktavia.
Don't know that I really want to leave it on the Shelf.
Then it would be, What if, or Should I have!!
Think I'll end up goin with that. 🤪

RE: IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black
Trying to talk myself into actually needing this release as opposed to just wanting it even though I've already managed to purchase more than double figures in Ironheart Shirts in the last 2 years since first getting to know their magnificent products, and don't have really significant fades on any of them yet with trying to keep them all in a reasonable rotation.
I am allowed to purchase when it's really verging on a reckless extravagance.🤪

RE: IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo

RE: IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo
Hi. Lookin to order this to add to my IH Collection.
Has the Sizing Tables been updated.
Ideally looking for something between L & XL as shown. Particularly on Shoulders And Chest. The other measurements on a Standard L would work.

RE: IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
Thought I would just post this for info incase anyone else is struggling with sizing on some OD Denim.
I have possibly about 9 or 10 Iron Heart Shirts in a mixture of either L or XL's and mainly in Western Style due to a fairly slim waist against my Shoulder and Chest Measurements.
As a rule I've tended to buy OD Denim in XL, Regular Indigo in L, Kersey in L, Serge in XL and UHW Flannels in both L & XL dependent on individual dimensions which has worked for me up until now.
My new XL18 OZ OD CPO with 19.5 Shoulders and 23.3 Pit to Pit purchased recently was just a little bigger than all my other Shirts and although I didn't really notice this initially, (and knew that the dimensions of the Large were reasonably significantly smaller and wouldn't have worked for me either) I could definitely feel it after a couple of wears.
Although OD is regarded as completely Pre Shrunk I decided to do a Hot Soak in the bath about 60 degrees for 30 Mins with Woolite Dark Soap Powder to help preserve the Colour.
The result, Well I couldn't be happier. The colour is absolutely Vibrant, and looks brand New and I've almost lost half a Size between the XL and the L, with the Shoulder down to 19 and the Pit to Pit 22.7. The other dimensions have trimmed up in proportion slightly also.
I couldn't be happier. RESULT!!
Will send Photos when I can organise a Selfie Stick or someone to hold the Camera Phone.

RE: IHM-37-BLK - Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Black
Hey Guys. Not jumpin on this as I've already got too many Winter Jackets including another N1 unfortunately, with my work as a Mountain Guide. My main reason for posting is I see a few posts regarding re-waxing.
I've re-waxed many Jackets and Rucksacks etc, over the Years including my other Whipcord N1 and a couple of Heavy Carhartt Bartlett's during my Years in Guiding and I would suggest that a much better way to re-wax than Liquid Belstaff or Barbour is to use the Block Wax by either Fjallraven or Otter Wax. Rub this on by hand until well coated and then melt in with a Heat Gun. 2 Coats will be a plenty which will take a couple of hours max and the finished result will be better than the original in every way. I guarantee you! It's fantastic, easy to do and will provide an improved appearance and performance, even from new!! Best of luck Waxer's. Remember, "Wax On, Wax Off"Or in this case, "Wax On, Wax In"

RE: IHSH-208-IND - Indigo Kersey Western Shirt
Hi Guys.
Just had a notification on this re stock AJ.
Remember thinking previously that XL would likely be better for me when the item was restocked.
However now looking at the measurements I feel that an L would likely be OK.
Normally for previous items Ihave been near the dimensions for Graham and Olly when purchasing Shirts and Jackets.
Any suggestions anyone on which way to go here.
I think both may fit and have bought both L and XL in IH Shirts previously.
Cheers.

RE: Where does everyone live?
Hi Guys.
Not quite sure what I'm doing on this Forum technically as I'm a bit of a Luddite when it comes to Technology.
I'm Mark from Scotland, though previously I spent a lot of time in the Alps whilst working as a Mountain Guide.
I first heard of Ironheart a couple of years ago when looking for Obenaufs LP but at that time thought their Denim & UHF prices were definitely beyond me! God if only I had realised sooner, then I would definitely be a few Thousand Pounds less well off by now!
Please forgive any errors in my Forum Greet and Meet as I've never responded or even been a Member of any Forum previously, so have some catching up to do, in both forum etiquette and IH purchases.
Cheers.
Mark
