IHSH-178 - 18oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black

[GregO]

Okay.  I’m not a patient person.

Managed to find an unworn 178 and struck a deal.  The shirt is a beast.  A glorious beast. Buttoned up with a T - good to go. Unbuttoned with a thick thermal over a T - also good to go.

And the overdyed buttons - good stuff.

@Jett129:

For the love of CHEESE. Here you go. 

How awesome. I know what I’m having for supper tonight.

[Jett129]

My son and I loved these,when he was growing up. Legend has it that whenever a new adventure would come out,whatever cheese Wallace was into,like Welsleydale,would then become impossible to find in the UK.

The new version of this shirt will be here in under 2 weeks….
If you're interested, fill in a restock alert for the IHSH-178

Great news @Alex! Does this apply to the non-OD version too?

Can't wait to see this in that new fabric. Love these heavy CPOs!

@Giles:

Won't be restocked.  We have run out of the denim.  We are sampling a new version in 19oz LHT at the moment, we did try 18oz vintage but decided it was not man enough.  We have left the status of this shirt as "continuous production", so we can harvest "email me when back in stock" requests.

I have yet to see the new sample, so it will be at least 3 months before we see the new version in production I am afraid.

Super excited for the release of the new version of this shirt. Apologies if this is cheeky, but I came across this old post from @Giles saying the 18oz vintage wasn't 'man enough' for this shirt :o

Did anything change about this denim to make it more suitable, or was it just a case of any potential alternative denims turning out to be even less suitable?

I'm totally planning to buy this either way, just curious about the thinking/process that goes into the design.

[Giles]

It's a really good question.

We thought it was not "iron" enough when we got the sample.

Then we had @Alex and @AdamC wear the samples for a few weeks, and then we realised that it was amazing…....

[jayaytee]

Thanks for the reply, that's good to know. To be honest I've not owned much in the way of shirts this heavy before - I think there's more chance it ends up being too iron for me if anything, rather than not enough…

Looking forward to finding out soon anyway.

Thought I’d wear my beautiful 178 today as all the new 293 owners receive their new version…

Welcome to the OD cpo wagon!

@motojobobo looks great with the 91 underneath!

[motojobobo]

Thanks @AdamJ . They are both long in the body so a good match at the hem, even if my pics failed to show that…

IH OD CPO‘S…beatiful post @motojobobo

The IHSH-99 thread can echo this.

[Matt]

Yes or no?  My concern is fucking with a shirt that’s already perfect…

[AdamJ]

@Matt don't do it! Mine doesn't need a patch and neither does yours!
