IHSH-290-GRN - 10oz Mock Twist Selvedge Chambray Work Shirt - Green
-
I feel like I need to post something in this thread for posterity.
I hope that this won't be the case but the fact that these shirts haven't already flown off the shelves has me thinking that years from now, someone is going to say "Man, you guys should re-run the IHSH-290-GRN!" and someone (probably Reuben :D) will chime in that a re-run is unlikely because it didn't sell that well originally.
I just want it on the record that it's taking a WHOLE LOT OF WILLPOWER for me not to pull the trigger on this shirt. It hasn't happened mostly because you guys have damn near cleaned me out over the last 6 weeks with fantastic drops! Like @sabergirl , I'm saving up for the 888XHSMB and I just can't pick up the 888XHSMB and this shirt. But let the record show that that the absence of my credit card being ninja-starred across the pond is not due to the shirt's lack of awesomeness, for it lacks none, but due to the state of California insisting that I pay stupid sums of property tax.

Move out of CA. Problem solved…

I was ready to pull the trigger on this but the measurements weren't in my favor. Thankfully the red western is perfect. Any Iron Heart chambray is an instabuy for me if the measurements work.

Honestly @Paul9221 you might want to make an exception. I have just about every ticket item from IH at this point and I must say that this is probably my favourite.
There's just something about the colour and quality of construction (albeit this obviously applies to all IH products…) that screams best dress shirt you'll ever own.
And for anyone talking about measurements...outside of the arms being too small just go to a tailor. You're paying so much for the shirt, what's another 15-20?
-
crap photo but have to post to say how much I like this shirt. If you're hesitant-don't be.
If the red comes out in work shirt version I'm gonna fall on that too. -
Does anyone have a better picture of this shirt?
I'm considering it.
Thanks. -
@piranha - what specifically are you looking for in terms of photos? I'm sure someone would happily oblige!
For more photos of the shade of green, check out the IHSH-66 page, as I believe they are extremely similar fabrics..

This shirt looks really good. When the XL stock starts dropping dangerously low I will pounce. Too many other financial responsibilities to cop now.
@Giles what happened with the brown chambray? Wasn't there talk of a brown work shirt chambray too? Is that still happening?
-
dammit….the brown looked so good as well...would have been a great shirt.
Thanks.

I don't think so? Idk, I was thinking it was basically just a brown version of this IHSH-290…a 10oz mock twist work shirt.
I thought I remembered seeing a swatch of it in a thread a while back discussing the future releases (at the time) of the red and green chambrays. Now that Giles mentioned that there is no more of that brown 10oz mock twist left though I'm guessing it's not the same fabric as the shirt above? Unless the last of the brown 10oz mock twist was used for that.

@piranha - hope these pics help. The shirt feels light & soft to wear.
The Orange Bobbin thread is my favorite detail. @Giles did you consider doing orange bar tacks on this similar to how the IHSH-68-ind was detailed? I think it would have been cool but maybe a bit too much?
Thank you. @hoppy_IPA
