IHSH-75 - 12oz Indigo Selvedge Denim Work Shirt

I'm guessing what the answer is, but like me, Gave has a beer storage facility…..

Western shirts look better on errrr….. men who are less "homely" (yes, that's a word), than me.

Love the looks of this shirt….  don't own one yet....  will one day when IH quits making bad ass limited run items that take precedence.

[Appfaff]

I will attest that this is easily the most "wearable" denim shirt IH has made. the 12oz fabric and brown stitching makes the denim on denim look not so uniform and the work shirt pockets make it look less "marlboro man" than the IHSH-33 does. Having owned a Large (grew out of it) and an XXL (shrunk out of it), I will be getting an XL when my "other denim shirt" collection dwindles down haha.

I would love to see the 14oz denim from the jeans made into a work shirt at some point. I got a pair of 14oz jeans (although they don't fit me haha) and the denim is unreal. I think it would make a shirt to rule all shirts. Tonal stitching would differentiate it from V1 and V2 of the denim work shirt runs.

So… basically everyone?

I immediately thought of you, so I was going to say "lesser men", but didn't want to offend anyone else

You're just jealous of my waifish physique, you lumbering oaf.

Happened to two of the buttons on my hickory work shirt. Actually, one came off in my hand now I think about it.
I ended up reinforcing all of them.
Not ideal.

Yeah I've had issues with several of the buttons on my IHSH-95 as well. Same buttons and basically the same shirt.

[manufc10]

I've had a few issues with some buttons falling off of some of my shirts as well.

[Giles]

It's an issue we have unfortunately had from time to time on some of our work shirts.  I still have not got to the bottom of how or why, but am going to bring it up with the .jp crew today…

I've had the same issue with mister freedom , sugarcane and flathead shirts….Maybe when sewing in production some buttons are just sewn a bit looser than others and certainly looser than a person focusing on sewing one button back onto a shirt. I've never let it bother me much, but would have been sad if I had lost one of the buttons

Snaps on work shirts.

Problem solved, right?  Right?

I actually have a hybrid Western/Work shirt. It has a western yoke,with work shirt type pockets,and snaps. Made by a co.called Schaefer Outfitters. It's a pretty heavyweight chambray.

My thoughts exactly    Iron Heart Grade Heavy raw fabric + sewn-on buttons=

[Finkster]

Same problems with my -170 Shirt .. 2 of the buttons are nearly lost 

+1 with the 'snaps on Workshirts'-petition

I discussed this with the .jp team today. We have identified the issue.  It is caused by the button sewing machine not being set up correctly.  The factory is having the engineer from the manufacturer visit to fix the issue.  In the meantime, Haraki and the team in Japan and IHUK shipping guys will examine each shirt before it it shipped.  However, please note they the defect can be virtually impossible to detect in some instances, so some shirt may fall through the gap.  Once we have rectified the machine, Haraki will give me a further update.

Sorry for the hassle and the embarrassment from me and H.

Should this be soaked before being worn? I know it's rinsed but I am not sure whether the denim is rinsed before being made into the shirts or the shirts themselves…

[Giles]

No need.
