      The pockets and yoke on a western are cut on a bias.  Denim is a twill, I am assuming therefore that the light catches the twill line differently….(or it may just be because it is double thickness in those places... :D)

        I figured it was difference in translucence because of two layers. Looks cool imo.

          It's also the seams, collar, cuffs and placket too.

          Either way… I think my pic and your pic prove that we need a white western in production, lol

              This could prove a viable alternative for those, like me, who have been looking (unsuccessfully) for a natural 16 for years.

                  After 2 days, I thought I was about to be stuck with an 80's-esque acid wash western…..  Not cool, lol

                    Hey, can you all make a denim &/or a chambray shirt with matching stitching instead of contrast stitching?
                    Just one of these would be nice.

                    Please & thank you

                    Great call.  Next time we run IHSH-33, I'm going to run a 100 or so with blue needle thread…..

                    This is happening.  Paula has just christened it the IHSH-33-Stealth Edition

                      Damn @UnTucked!  That was a ballsy move but the results are amazing!  I've always wished that I could've gotten my hands on a IHSH-16 Natural but would have never thought to take such a project.  Bravo!

                        what @Clint_D  said, now are you going to change the buttons too?

                        would look awesome with some of those buttons from the 132 or maybe some mother of pearl buttons.
                        great job @UnTucked 
                        disregard looked at the 33 page & didn't see the pimp option  😞
                        Just thought about the shirt sitting in bleach for a few days & the buttons didn't change at all?  That's kind of insane when you think about it

                          Believe it or not, I've never owned a 33.  I might need to change that when the stealth ones come out.

                                With all the talk about sleeve length & body width of shirts, would it be feasible to do a bespoke shirt by Iron Heart? 
                                Do up a little form where you measure yourself or the shirt you would like the shirt to fit like & then you provide said information, pay a deposit or the total sum I don't know just kicking about the idea . . . . imagine it would be a huge pain in the a$$ & wouldn't pass go, but what the heck  😉

                                maybe 20 slots to do up in whatever size & a cool fabric the Boss picks out

                                  Yep, huge pain in the arse (for the Japanese crew).  The time and effort and diversion from their "proper" job just is not feasible….

                                    Another run of the IHSH 107! That or same weight or slightly heaver in different color combos. I think these were the best color combos in your entire lineup…that is me though.

                                    I would KILL for a proper purple flannel. Say purple, brown, dark green, rust, turquoise. Somewhere in that range would be an INSTANT buy for me. I rarely see companies do a proper purple flannel IMO. All the same and boring.

                                        Four days in a 50% bleach solution?  I'd be concerned about the long term effects on the fabric; that's a pretty harsh environment.  I hope it holds up, though, because it looks cool.

                                            Not sure; maybe a lower concentration, take it out every once in a while and rinse it off with cold water.  Probably would take forever, but I'm kinda leery of using bleach.  Too many bad memories from my food service days, I guess.
