IHSH-275-BLK - 12oz Selvedge Denim Work Shirt “The Johnny Cash Works Again”

Stupid question, but verifying this is NOT “Superblack” - correct?

So the aging narrative means this will crock and fade?

How much softer (or not) is it compared to the old 95?

It is very very slow fading black. The Japanese call it super black, but when we did a shrink test we noticed very faint signs of fading so to be truthful we cannot call it true super black. I have worn my 218 for over a year very regularly and it shows no real signs of fading. This is the same denim

Man, first the IHSH-75s sneak up on me and now this one.  This has been an unexpectedly expensive month LOL

How the hell did I not know this was coming?  This looks great and I hope it's a continuous production item.

F/W 2020 has become a work shirt bonanza. And there’s still an indigo kersey WS in the pipeline.

That’s right! I completely forgot about that. When is the indigo Kersey work shirt due?

What kind of shrinkage did you get @Alex? I'm usually an L but the overall length and arm length are not as long as I'd like them to be, and the XL has a big PTP.

Is it essentially the same as the fabric used on the IHSH-85? If so that thread has some good documented shrink tests (by myself, amongst others [emoji1]).
