IHSH-21-BLU - 10oz Selvedge Chambray Work Shirt - Blue

[yen]

I just got the last of the Xls from dc4, it still has the backing buttons.  Does this mean its the raw shrinkable version?

Yes they are all raw (w/ Buttons on back). Oh and congrats on getting your hands on an XL!

Cheers, glad I got one of these before they ran out

@Shoreman:

It's such a dope shirt. I'm glad you undertook this experiment, because I now know that if I were to cop a couple chambrays, I'll definitely size up to account for shrinkage.

The OG IHSH-21 was the only one that came raw…..

Thank you.

Just out of curiosity, would it be possible to remove the IH tag on the left pocket and instead have it placed similarly to the IHSH-36 prior to shipment? It would be a service I'd pay extra for.

Something tells me no. Just have a tailor do it locally.

Fair enough.

Fair enough.

I mean, if it was darning of chainstitching I would understand your concern. However, it is just a simple single needle deal so it should be simple and cheap. Plus, you would save G a headache. Always a good thing.

Sound advice Lando…..

@Giles:

We are releasing 2 new blue chambrays in this cut soon, if that helps alleviate the pain…...

You think H will still do the triple chain stitch on the new chambrays in this cut?  Not a must… but the triple chain stitch was bad ass none the less.

[Giles]

Yes:

Good to hear, I think the triple chain stitch on a shirt screams what Iron Heart is all about!!  looking forward to these new colors

How are there still 2 pieces left?! Thought the sale and the fact that shirt is no more would definitely knock it into the EXTINCT category…

Wrong size!

EDIT: How much this shrinks when washed? Percentage?

Whoa, that is some serious shrinking! Change of plans… Thanks!

Just remember I soaked it in boiling hot water and then machine washed it hot. Less shrinkage can be achieved by using luke warm water or not machine washing. Good luck

I was actually going to get it in XXL to get a relaxed fit, since some IH shirts in XL are too small for me but I'm afraid it would end up too short for my liking after shrinking.

So instead I ordered a 33…

BE CAREFUL.  Landos IHSH-21 was from the first batch (I think - please confirm), that were raw, all subsequent runs were one-washed…..

Yes mine (w/ Buttons on back) was from the first run = RAW.

Aah, good thing I decided to get IHSH-33 instead!
