Here’s mine with IHSH-33

Thanks all, have a pair of 34 SBGs on the way!

@pechelman Ok thanks so soak first in tub in warm water and then put in washing machine on warm. I couldn’t tell from previous posts if people were just soaking in tub or washing in machine or both. Yeah could use tightening up little all over and lose a little length then should be good. Thanks!

Hi all - fit question. Just got mine today and there's pretty comfortable out of the bag in a 34. I'd only want the waist to loosen up slightly, but would not say they're currently tight in the waist. Is that too big? Or do you only get an inch of stretch in the waist if you're actually stretching them out that much to fit? I don't have the 33 to compare but was worried they could be too small.

Again, these are pretty comfy right now just want to make sure they won't end up being too big...

@Oaktavia That’s awesome! I’ve been looking out for one for a year but have never seen one in my size pop up. Maybe someday!

I ordered. First pair of 25 oz!

I’ve got some wear in with mine now and would like to tighten up with a wash, in particular would like to lose some length. What’s the best way to do that?

Soak, hot wash and then air dry or dryer?

@neph93 You had a strategy?

Hi all - I'm looking to get a pair of XHS IB but not sure which cut! My current two pairs of IH denim are the 634 indigo and 888 SBG. I think both look good with the boots. The 888s I think work a little better with the shoes so maybe those are a little more versatile. Obviously it's just a preference but welcome any suggestions on going 634 or 888 for the XHS! (Posting in both of these forums)

Anyone have a Townes shirt and can comment on it? Look nice but I guess also all sold out. Maybe you have to wait for drop?

I have the Sashiko ori and waiting for the striped one to deliver tomorrow. I love the Sashiko version. It’s a little on the long side, I did shrink it following his directions and it definitely shrunk but either way I wear it almost daily it’s super comfortable and well made

Nice let me know how you like the striped one. They look nice. Also wonder about length, generally don’t like shirts that are too long.

@bluemantra Yeah I have to shrink my L IH denim shirts a little to get the fit I like, especially to lose a little length. Fit looks good overall but yeah it is long.

Thanks @Oaktavia. I don’t have anything slubby or type II so could be something new to try. My other denim jacket is actually the 22 oz OD type III. How would this layer with the IHSH-33? I'd probably do that and then have to wear either the denim shirt or jacket with tee as it warms up.

Do people generally take same size as in type III?

@Oaktavia , other folks how do you like the type II compared to the type III?

What’s the word on what the new leather is like?

@pechelman Yeah very helpful comparison thanks! Does the big buck soften up some with wear?

@pechelman Can you say more about how the white deer differs from the big buck? Do you think they have different use cases?
