IHSH-163 - Wool Work Shirt - Grey, Charcoal and Olive
-
Can only speak for the old melton wool shirts, but IH wool shirts are amazing!!!
-
Grey incoming! I think this is going to be one of those sleeper pieces that can't be appreciated until it has some good wear in it.
-
How heavy is the wool and woven? Would be a great outer shirt if heavy enough. Right now I can't afford anything, bills and more bills due soon. Shall see if still around in a month or two time frame.

What retailers are getting them?
VMC are getting the charcoal - that's it.
What is VMC?
-
A retailer in Europe. The XHS was made to celebrate their 25th anniversary I believe
Edit: whoops! Giles beat me to it haha

Also noticed there is size XS listed as an option in stock but no measurements when viewing the chart.

@neph93 - I think I will stick to dry cleaning when necessary. However my red Melton CPO did mark pretty easily, but a quick damp rag usually did the trick in terms of spot cleaning.
I agree. Washing machines and wool are a disaster. Perhaps 20% nylon is different but I wouldn't bet my shirt on it.

@BloodnThunder XS is a mistake. We did not get any. We can, but there are none here….....

Thanks, @Giles. I was lucky enough to snag a small in grey. Just looking out for us little guys.

Look similar weight to some of my Filson westerns from over the last few years. I have a 100% virgin western that I can wear year around and be comfortable. I'd be picking one up if I hadn't just bought a jacket from our local Philly guy. Shucks, they look utterly fantastic!

@Giles do you think that you will be getting more in from Japan?
-
Not unless asked….

Blue bag came in yesterday. The weight is very nice…. Feels pretty close to what a 7 OZ. spring flannel weighs, but with much more breathability. For wool it's almost airy. The hand is also quite nice. Compared to many other wool shirts I have felt this one, for lack of a better word, is very 'tolderable'. For all those sensitive to wool I noticed zero contact around the collar due to the lining so the only real place you would have a lot of contact is in the sleeves if you wore a t-shirt underneath (a long sleeve shirt would altogether eliminate contact). All in all another amazingly well done shirt by IH that no one on the fence should sleep on.

I got mine too. Absolutely love it. I would definitely say warmer than a spring flannel though. That's just my impression. I did size up, though I could have gone either way. I would buy the other colors if I could. Don't sleep, gentlemen. This is a particularly amazing shirt.
