IHSH-68-blk - 12oz Wabash Work Shirt - Black

Is there a secret way to button that top button?  For the life of me cannot get that top button

[Alex]

I just tested one here and managed to do the top button relatively easily. I will say that these new 4 hole buttons are a little harder to do up than the other buttons we use, but that should get easier as the material ages

I'm finding the top button on my shirt to be sewn on pretty tightly, which makes it a bit tough to squeeze through the button hole.  I think the thicker fabric and the thin metal button make for a not-so-great match.

I can squeeze the button through, but my thumb is definitely throbbing afterwards.

It will loosen up… it is also an idea to gently stretch the buttonhole with needle nose pliers or the like. It it robust fabric so won’t be damaged but is also a cotton twill so will loosen when pressure is applied.

I'll try that out.

Too bad there's no option for some copper snaps on the work shirt.  They do look good on the western version.

These will restock at 1600BST tomorrow, 20th April

RESTOCK

[BrianA]

Looks like these are still running a size larger than normal, just as they had when measurements were taken back in 2018.  eh?

Finding this shirt pairs nicely with the thermal waffle Henley I picked up in the summer sale.

Looks spectacular @nurunuru. In fact everything about that pic is spectacular… the clothes, the background and most definitely that moustache!

Cheers, dude.

I usually go for smaller tags L in IH workshirts. I think this tag small fits just fine. Thanks to folks at IHUK for getting me the largest shirt available in stock.

Any news about the restock, as the western one is coming soon?

@Karol Just FYI, here is the thread for the current version of this shirt:

https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/9502/ihsh-266-blk-12oz-wabash-work-shirt-black-with-black-buttons

Sadly, this version with the aluminium buttons has been replaced

[AdamJ]

@Karol Both 62-IND and 62-BLK are due in November. As @T4920 mentioned, the IHSH-68 has been discontinued due to button hole issues, and replaced with 266

@T4920 @AdamJ Thanks for all this information lads!!
