IHAS-01 Deerskin Western Shirt

[Just_KC]

man, this looks awesome. hopefully it doesn't cost an arm or a leg!

[Geo]

maybe get a discount if it's an arm though . . .

[Giles]

No subtle way of putting this.

These WILL cost an arm and a leg.  We have to use 4 skins for each shirt.

OK

so i have a quick question for everyone….

opinion time. which of the colors will be the most "classic" and "timeless" ? now when i say classic, i am thinking more yacht club, than bar hangout.

which color is more "hermes" than "elvis" , if you get me drift. i dont want flash, i want subtle. very very very subtle.

more "range rover" than "ferrrari".

i am leaning olive drab at this point. thoughts?

ps. grey poupon, anyone?

[nameness]

I'm leaning towards the Olive Drab with the Antique Dark being second.

That OD is exactly what you said, classic.  I can see myself wearing the same color with pretty much anything 10-15 years down the line.

The Sand would scream a little too much "big game hunter" to me.  Ask me about what I'm wearing, maybe I killed it…

[Giles]

I am not sure if I have already said on this thread, but because of the way that this skin is tanned, it can be washed in a washing machine and it will be perfectly fine.  Just need to make sure it is well supported and not strained/stressed whilst air drying…..

I'm with Beats, the OD is gorgeous!!!

[malibuboy]

yeah, i think you guys are on it, the OD followed by the antique dark.

what about the contrast stitching ? perhaps just a lighter version of the shirt, say a light OD?

it cant "POP" with a  high white stitching, right? NOT SUBTLE, i would think.

more thinkin' time.

Simon, how about a tan stitching on the OD ?…Like a khaki tan.

@malibuboy:

Maybe dude, but if you're going subtle…  stitching the same color as the OD.  Or maybe even a touch darker.

[Beatle]

touch darker..that's what I was thinking..

[Blackheart]

Darker works.

[Geo]

definitely darker

[malibuboy]

well, we certainly are in agreement on the proper stitching color would be the same as the shirt color, but i would have said a lighter hue, rather than darker .

hmmm… must reconsider....

obviously i need more pics!

Before final tweaks…

[premo]

Hah, not so much for the shirt but great pic!

[Beatle]

[zhivago]

Thank you for clarifying that Beatle, I was wondering if the deerskin would be that shinny or if it was just the photo or what.  Thanks again.

[Beatle]

yeah, sorry, I had one beer that night
