Yeah, I agree with the 100 percent.
I washed all these shirts today on the heavy duty cycle on my Samsung front loader in cold water.
This shirt almost got sold in my sale because it was too small in the biceps and belly area (when I sit down). But I was able to put the shirt on while it was damp and stretch and shape it. This was also a good time to shape and flatten the collar, bottom hem, and pocket flaps. I am so glad I didn't sell it.
I just used 2 of these Tide pods because they have some kind of antibacterial additive. So it really removes the musty smell all the stuff had.

I feel like it’s been answered before but I can’t seem to find it now… Does anyone know if the Good Art snap upgrades (specifically for the lightweight snaps) can be successfully transplanted to a different shirt, or does the initial installation and/or subsequent removal make that risky/impossible? Don’t want to ruin them, but they’re attached to a shirt that is now borderline too large for me.

I think they can be taken off and re-used, but you risk ruining the donor shirt. Not sure though. One of the crew will chime in tomorrow with the truth.

They can be taken off, a replacement snap can be added and the shirt will be totally fine. But the "legs" of the snap get deformed during the installation process. Sometimes these can be bent back and the snap used again, but it's a pain in the arse and not guaranteed to work.

Thanks for the info both, perhaps the safer route is having a competent tailor take in the waist and opening…

We have come to the decision that we need to rebuild our website again. There are two main reasons for this:
The mobile site is very poor. The reason this is so important is on average, across the two sites (Int'l & US), the number of those users browsing on a mobile device is 62.68%.
The desktop site, while holding good content, is a little outdated and clunky. We need to make serious improvements to the checkout, we do not have enough control over our content pages and the design of them and we are on a very outdated platform.
While we have been analysing ways to improve the site, a couple of things have jumped out at us.
We (IHUK) are very inconsistent with font usage, font size, and branding of this sort.
Our current logo, Tetsu san's 'Bells & Wings' does not look as good as it could when it is compressed down to a small logo. The copy within the ring that encircles the logo itself is lost and because you can no longer see the text the final effect is the logo looking quite messy. What we need is a more simplified logo, with no text inside it that can be more flexibly used.
The font usage is quite an easy fix as it is down to choosing the correct typeface while subtly maintaining the heritage of the brand, then coding them into the new website.
This is a much-shortened version of the email I sent to Haraki recently. In response he sent over 6 new logos, We have developed one that meets our needs best moving forward and that is the one currently in use.
Iron Heart Website V5 should be late this year, early 2020.

Although "The Purple Jam" may be an even better name than "Purple Rain". I too am interested in the The Purple Jam workshirt… and my b'day just happens to be in early November....

is there a difference between the 25oz indigo/black and the 19oz indigo/black?
from what i gather, the difference is in the type of black dye being used for the weft. i'm really liking the 19s, they remind me a lot of my PBJs 24oz 007 double indigo warp and weft..
