      I wish I had a photo of the sewing machine head that does the triple chain stitched work.  It is a heavily customised machine that has 3 needles that rise and fall together.  That is why, when you see one of our triple-stitched shirts, the stitching is immaculately even.  In this factory, they only have a single stitch head machine, so they had to sew the yoke on 3 passes manually….

        Just split the difference and do a “no yoke” western like the IHD or a work shirt with snaps. That way you don’t need the triple stitching.

          @Jett129 I'm super excited about this.  The ib sample I am wearing is so good.  I'm desperate to try different 14oz denim/stitching/style variants  🙂 🙂

          . Believe me you’re not alone in the excitement department. What about the 14OZ bb denim?

              There you said it twice now. [emoji23] Both type III vest and work vest I think… and maybe something extra special like the IHV-18?

                Or a IHV-05

                Or how’s about a hybrid vest. IHV-05 length with the IHV-18 pocket layout, in 14oz denim!

                  With black stitching would be nice.

                        I excite easy, especially on this site. But 14 oz. IB sounds great in all of the aforementioned posts. I'm attaching my 14 oz. IB Indigofera Copeland. purchased 2-2018. I love fades, but hot damn does that look sharp new. @giles you are a lucky man to get to wear that sample.

                          I think diamond snaps would look really sharp on that shirt and set it apart from the others. If you don’t want to put them on the stock shirts,maybe you could get some as a pimping option.

                            14oz is a beast to break in as a regular shirt. I have had the SDA 14oz shirt since March 17 and it's only now starting to be broken in.

                            I'll be interested to see how the fabric evolves.

                              Wo do not have heavyweight diamond snaps.  And yes, this thing needs heavy….

                                    How about a 25oz indigo/black type 3 Vest with copper snap…

                                    I remember when the 25oz XHS came out sold really well...

                                    Maybe this one can fly high...
