@goosehd I've only been wearing it for a few hours, but so far I am really enjoying it. It looks and feels very new... but that should take care of itself in time, and I think it's really going to age nicely. The dial size feel just perfect, and the build and material seem very solid and high quality. The matte finish of the bronze is very nice. Strap is comfortable. I love how thin this watch is (~9mm I think). If I had one complaint it would be that the lug-to-lug measurement is a little long. It would fit on my wrist a bit better if this measurement were a little shorter. And if I ever go without a nato strap, there is likely going to be a bit of a gap there. But I am perfectly happy with this strap. And overall, I am very happy with this watch.

RE: The (Less intimidating) Watch Thread
I just got a watch! Hamilton khaki field in bronze. I've never really had a watch before. This one should age nicely.

RE: IHSH-33-OD - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
This shirt was my first piece of Iron Heart clothing... It's my favorite shirt! 3.5 years, a couple hand washes, and aging beautifully if I may say so myself!

My first IH type 3 jacket. 3.5 years, 0 soaks, 0 washes. Hard not to feel good wearing this thing!

@Matt Thanks, I think so too! What I meant was that I would have liked more of the 'cloudy' look that's present on the bottom half throughout the whole thing, as it gets a little 'plain' on the upper half. But I have not idea what I'm doing

I dyed this shirt using susuzome dye, which is a natural Japanese dye made from the soot of burnt pine wood. Ended up dying it twice as the first round resulted in a pretty light grey. I was hoping for a little more consistency in the variation, but overall I'm pretty pleased with the result. I really like how the bottom half turned out, but it gets a little plain on the upper half. Might go for a third round some day... we'll see.

RE: IHSH-295-BB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Black/Black
This shirt is an absolute monster! I already had a Cash III and a military surge black, so I was a little on the fence about another black IH western shirt. But who am I kidding? Glad I pulled the trigger. I usually wear L, and went with L here. It's ever so slightly snug in the chest, but not unreasonably so, and even after just a few days wear, it's already starting to relax. Can't to see how this one evolves.

My pair just arrived yesterday... first pair of 25oz. These jeans are absolutely ridiculous!
I can already tell I am going to love them though.

Thanks for the input, reckon I'll keep the large.

RE: IHSH-304-RED - Ultra Heavy Flannel Western Shirt - Ombré Check - Red
I could use some fit check advice here. I'm torn… Do I go with L and hope it doesn't shrink too much, or go XL and hope it shrinks quite a bit?
Keeping with the bathroom selfie theme here...
I generally prefer a slimmer fit… I'm also packing a few extra pounds these days, which isn't terribly flattering.

Been patiently awaiting this one. It will be my first IH UHF, and I am very excited for it!
