IHSH-55 - Wabash Western
-
Will this ever have another production run or is this fabric gone for good?

Gone for good. The OG wabash fabric was replaced by the new wabash found in the IHSH-62. According to G's statement earlier this week, they are the same rope dyed warp and weft twill, but the OG fabric has a dirty brown retarding overdye to stop any indigo loss. I think H figured out what was causing the indigo loss, therefore, no brown overdye. I personally like the OG fabric waaay more than the new wabash, but that's my opinion.
The 55 also comes up big, so you may need to size down. I did.

Agreed on the 55 fabric being cooler….has more "character" in it to me.

thanks mike, yeah I have the new wabash and it never gets worn i had the opportunity to get a large 55 a while back but negated in hopes of finding a medium hopefully one day… Fingers crossed that I do someday.

got a trip x over in the sales thread….

Exactly. And another reason I don't like the new one as much is the white stitching, it's just too much IMHO.

Playing around with camera today…

That brown is lovely.

I got myself the IH-55 wabash and am absolutely in love with it but I've not worn it even once. The reason being i'm staying in Singapore and the weather here is way too hot to be wearing them.
Not to mention I've put on considerable amount of weight and the size S wouldn't button up nicely for me.
Was wondering if anyone's interested.

It is a brilliant shirt , had many compliments on it . Glad I found one in XL last
Christmas on the buy & sell here .

Mine has done this since the first wash, it doesn't really bother me…
And now that you've pointed it out, it seems that most of my shirts do the same thing. Currently wearing my IHSH-43 - just checked the back - it's curled.
