      Was just wondering.
      As much as we geek out about our IH stuff, I though for sure there was one mega fan out there who was keeping track 🙂

      Neat idea. Could almost make a cool piece of wall art if done properly. Hell, I know I’d buy it.

        Is there a fix for an unraveling chain stitch? Noticed it on the hem of my Pronto denim but don’t know if it’ll get worse if I leave it as is.

        Sew over the loose thread that is unraveling

          I was imagining the same thing @Anesthetist.Ive been looking at some patches over the years in these threads
          and it really is art.
          The new patches look great, but damn if some of those older ones don't look epic;)

                  it does, and I can confirm that I checked and double checked the translation for that so many times before I sent that print. I think I carried on checking after it went to print!

                          You need to rotate it 90 degrees clockwise for it to read correctly. It spells our how Japanese spell Iron Heart in kataka

                            Im thinking now that if Haraki had in fact written " I am a twat" on that shirt, my god it would be a collectors item.
                            And totally worth buying:)

                              Stupid random questions…..

                              Regarding arm holes....

                              Generally and relatively speaking for the same sizes (L vs L), do CPOs have larger arm holes than westerns and work shirts?

                              Do work shirts have larger arm holes than westerns?

                              Thanks in advance and apologize if this has already been asked.

                                That is the kind of question I love. And probs not so random, i bet you have a reason for asking.

                                If I were to put money on it then I’d expect CPO’s to have larger armholes than westerns or work shirts of the same size. They are designed as an overshirt for layering and it would make sense to have more room there.

                                Westerns vs. Work shirts? Intuitively I would think work shirts have a wider armhole, just because they are otherwise a more relaxed cut, but thinking about my IHSH-118 and 119, I recall the armholes being slim.

                                This stuff intrigues me so I’m going to check it out when I get the chance.

                                IHSH-178 vs. IHSH-33-IND vs. IHSH-165

                                I’ll get back to you.

                                  I think there’s a noticeable difference between the arm holes of the westerns I have (192 & 240) vs the work shirt chambray (which number escapes me at the moment), but the cut is a bit looser as well. Work being bigger, but also it’s a far lighter and breathable shirt than say the heaviness of an IH flannel.

                                    I have an UHF in the workshirt cut, so I can compare that too.

                                      My XXL wabash workshirts have larger armholes than my XXL 33 Western. That sais, all other dimensions are slightly bigger too due to the style and purpose of their original design (I suppose). Because sizing of CPOs is intentionally bigger, I have always sized down to xl, so can't make a like for like comparison, but as @neph93 said, it would be a reasonable guess to say they'd be larger.

                                        I’m sure this has been asked before but what deodorant do you use that doesn’t leave pit stains on t-shirts? I’ve read that deodorants with aluminum whatever as an ingredient leaves pit stains, but my current deodorant doesn’t have aluminum in it. Any specific brands you’d recommend?

                                          I use Old Spice or Dove deodorant but not an antiperspirant. I tried using Toms but it didnt cut it for a long day at work.
