IHSH-68-ind - 12oz Wabash Work Shirt - Indigo
-
I don't know where to start… I'll start with some bad feedback...
- opening between pen slot and button is too narrow to hold a knife (is this why you bought the miniature knives, G?)
- pen slot will hold ballpen, but no rollerball
- I almost returned the shirt cause my hungover ass wasn't able to unbutton the top button
- I don't think it's fair towards other brands to produce a shirt this fucking awesome... Seriously: these people have families you know!..
Fit:
-
sleeves 10/ 10. Perfect length, only need to undo one button for a double roll. Bit more narrow a fit throughout the sleeve which has me giggling like a happy li'l schoolgirl fondling her first dildo. No need to undo button to take off or put on the shirt.
-
length 9/10: covers 50% of my backpockets. When I lift my arms, the red W is visible. When I clip my knife to my frontpocket, the shirt does not pick it up... Excellent!.. But wouldn't mind it being 1/2" shorter. Although I'm sure with wear it will lose a bit of its length. The fabric is HEAVY.
-
features: alu buttons (you're allowed to say tinfoil if you're American), heavy Wabash fabric, chainstitch runoff, red bartacks, blue IH tag, pen slot, two pockets (perfect size for smartphone).
-
buttons: stubborn sonsabitches... The position of the 2nd button favours the V-neck thing (first two buttons open). There's also no way in hell that any of these buttons is gonna get undone by itself... These being made of alu really, really adds to the whole esthetic of this shirt... It's close to a piece of art, this is, in combo with the red bartacks... I had the 62 but got rid of it to get the 68 and I am glad I did...
-
Seul: shut the fuck up and just post some fit pics already!.. Yeah yeah: in a bit... I'm hungover... AND WILL SOMEONE CLOSE THE FUCKING CURTAINS ALREADY

Great review. It's like the second coming of Dr Pat or something.
-
You mean drunk version of DrPat, don't you

Mikey: for a shirt it's heavy mate!.. Don't forget most people around the globe wear jeans that weigh less than 12 oz…
Pics (you bastards!):
I tried to include pics of everything I discussed. Forgot one point: YES you can put on and take off your watch without unbuttoning the sleeve...
V-neck, check the red stitching and the red bartacks… My lord...
Fitpics. I'm gonna be wearing this for a couple of days straight (at work), so I'll provide better fitpics soon. This shit needs to settle!..
In my pockets… L: Blackberry + Dupont ballpen. R: Sebenza.

At Seul’s behest, some pics of my favourite IH shirt which I happened to be wearing today ;D. Size S - bit snug across the chest
but on the whole a really good fit. I am too “curvy” for most IH western shirts so was delighted when we decided to make this Wabash work shirt. The metal buttons are great.[img width=600 height=800]http://i988.photobucket.com/albums/af7/ironheart634S/new basic/IMG_5487.jpg
