          ^ very nice. I just moved my IHSH-76 on and while I prefer a IHSH-178 as a replacement these are also tempting. Did you cop it?

          Well @neph93 did u get that OD178? You love a sneaky cop.

          Maybe so. Maybe not

            I did not mate. I picked up the silver nips IHSH-33 before Xmas and the 888 releases were prioritised. I’m still on a shirt moratorium/one in, one out policy, since the 33 and while I have more shirts than I need,I have none I want to sell.  Next time maybe.

                Mine arrived today. Amazing. Bombproof. Hopefully will soften up a little. Sleeves are slightly long but should be ok once arms get broken in.

                    Hi all,

                    Just joined this forum and just taken my first step into 'proper selvage denim' and purchased the:
                    https://www.ironheart.co.uk/shirting/ihsh-177.html  hopefully arriving soon, can't wait!!!!

                    Couple of quick questions:

                    How do you get the 'high contrast' fades and how long does this take?
                    I've seen a few pics on here of people wearing the shirt with much lighter colour bottoms, does the dye from  the inside of the shirt run off into clothes?

                      Hi and welcome to the forum!

                      You made a bold choice, the 18 oz are a very heavy denim Option and I personally would not dare to wear it in a Shirt. However I had it in a jacket once. It had a "normal" Fading rate, not too fast nor too slow. If you're very active in it (using it as proper workwear) I think it should fade rather fast. For high contrast fades you should avoid washing too often (which of course is not an Option if used hard i.e. working). I think denim Looks best when it's used hard and washed on a regular Basis, it also makes the fabric last much longer. Too high contrast might look too exaggerated.

                      And yes, if there's some friction, the bottom hem might rub off to lighter fabrics. After 2 washes this might not be the case anymore.

                        Ok so it's arrived and well it's um kinda "stiff"!!!!!  Will need to try it on properly over a t shirt.  Quality and stitching is immense.

                        For first few wears is it ok the wear over a white t shirt oh and will the colour rub off on a leather watch strap!!!

                        Just been eyeing up these https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/pihxhs.html  anyone have fade pics of these??

                          @DemonDenimHunter the best example of fades can be seen in this post here.

                          The 18oz denim is awesome, keep wearing the hell out of it and it'll fade great!

                          The devil is in the detail..

                            Fades are totally subjective. Lifestyle etc. it takes time so enjoy the ride. In my experience it’s Like this… “A watched pot never boils.”

                              It will most likely crock on to white shirts and leather, probably until it has been washed a couple of times. That is all part of the fun for some people. Crocking onto white cotton tends to come out in the wash, crocking onto leather will not.

                              I used to be a bit squeamish about it myself but the only fuck I have left to give where crocking is concerned is with regards to my roughout burlap Wescos. I tend not to wear new jeans with them. There is a little blue here and there nevertheless.

                                it will definitely rub off, like on pocket openings of pants and def on tees. But nothing that will not go away with a wash, so easy 🤙🏼

                                    I used to be bothered by the denim stains on watch straps and lighter colored cotton or suede-ish sneakers, but the other day I was looking at the indigo smudges on the back of my parchment colored Chucks and realized that it actually looks great.  It adds character.  Maybe that's just me though.

                                    Blanket-line all the things!!!

                                      I know what you mean, but these are kinda expensive watch straps and I love love sneaks clean.  It's cool I just roll jeans up about an inch or 2 above the sneaker!!! Win win 😛

                                            I second @Kasi suggestion @DemonDenimHunter… Also do the snaps at the chest pull? If not then you’ll be fine.

                                            The denim will relax but it won’t stretch as much as jeans simply because it isn’t put under as much pressure.
