IHSH-178 - 18oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black

[budpatch]

Just over 1.5 years of wear and going to the wash for the first time

I've worn the crap outta this CPO, the fabric is super stubborn and doesn't like to give up color without a fight.

This is easily one of my favorite shackets.

I’m excited to see what the wash does to it @budpatch . I suspect you’ll experience something of a transformation as the black fugitive dye tends to come out quite nicely in the washing machine.

It definitely let go of some color in the high wear areas…button placket, shoulders, cuffs, and seams.

Got my special edition 178 in the mail yesterday!

[Matty123]

Special edition? Elaborate? Please?

I'm just guessing but I bet that he means the OD snap version. [emoji846]

I've been wearing mine a lot and really breaking in nicely.  Some great weather lately in the northeast so hopefully I'll get a few good updated pics of mine soon.

I see there's an extra Iron Heart logo on the right pocket as well, though, so there's something goin' on!

I was being a smart ass! Just an additional Iron Heart tag on the right pocket. Didn’t notice until I was in town and then I felt ‘special ’

Side note… I should really stop letting my phone spell check for me.

That’s fuckn hilarious.

I picked this beauty up tonight but I’m curious if I made a mistake. All of my IH shirting is Large, I bought an XL because I didn’t want it too short from the OD as a “jack shirt” should have I just stuck with Large?

According to the charts the overdying doesn’t make a massive difference when compared to the IHSH-177. Did you use the “Compare” function to check the difference between the IHSH-178 and an IH shirt you own?

[CMastri]

Thanks Neph, I forgot about that feature. It looks like XL was the right call for me.

RESTOCK XL

Beautiful shirt, I’m a little in between sizes but I think the x-Large was the right choice.

Beautiful shirt, …..the right choice.

The right choice indeed @CMastri !

@CMastri, looks good!

Joining the club as well.

This is the first overdyed piece in my collection. Two days old, this morning I made a hike up to a little summit to speed up the breaking in process.

There will come a beautiful day when I’ll get my hands on one…

@marlin Great fit! Such a bad ass shirt, you are going to love it.
