IHSH-277-IND - 9oz Selvedge Ombré Check Work Shirt - Indigo
-
Long time lurker, first time poster. Seems this shirt is as good of an excuse as any to dip my toe in and say hi! Way too cold in New England this week to take outdoor shots, but snagged some quick and dirties in my kids’ bathroom.
As others have stated (and shown), the colors in this thing are next level. I can just stare at it and start giggling. It’s textile art for sure.
I’m 6’0” and 180lbs, and XL fits like a glove.
Cheers!

think we are similarly built. I am 6.1 and 185 lbs … waiting for my XL . Bureaucracy had to stall it at customs for a day or two
Fortunately IR staff were of great help and all duties were paid for. I totally forgot about new rules after brexit... -
Seconded. Congrats and welcome!

Mine arrived today and it’s even better in person. Unfortunately my fabric has a pretty nasty snag in front that I’m nervous will get worse. I didn’t want to cut or pull on it and make worse. Any suggestions?

Damn, sorry that was missed. DO NOT CUT IT. You just need to get that loop to the reverse of the fabric. Thread a needle with about a foot of cotton yarn. From the reverse of the fabric, take the needle through the fabric exactly where the loop is, leaving a few inches of yarn on the reverse, loop the yarn around one leg of the offending loop and take the needle back through the fabric in exactly the same place as before. Remove the needle and gently pull on both tag ends of the yarn, pulling the tag to the reverse. From the face, you should not know anything has been done…

Sounds like an instruction for med students…

I use “Method 2”. Fast forward to 2:12 of the video
This happened on my Ihsh-100. And my Ihsh-140. But this process pulled the snag through to the underside of the fabric and it hasn’t been a problem since. Sorry

Ok, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to resist for much longer. That blue is unreal. I appreciate this is question that's been asked a lot, but as I'd always go Western over Work Shirt, on a scale of 1-10, what are the chances this exact fabric is used for a Western in the next year or so?

Hey, another first post from a new member here on this thread!
I received my shirt on Monday, after what was an incredibly short delivery time from the UK. UPS working at it's best - German post took much longer for a delivery from IH Hamburg this week ::)
When trying to order, I was lucky to get through fairly early, but that for sure was a nail-biter.
Forgot to take pictures yesterday, and today was UHF time again here in Germany.
But as you all have already come to the conclusion that the colours really stick out on this one, you don't any more proof, i guess

So when I first saw this shirt on the IH site, I thought it looked fairly good, but wasn't really moved enough to pull the trigger and buy. Then everyone started posting here after they received their orders, and were raving about it. Then came the fit pics which looked really good. So I figured I would grab one . . . and, of course, sold out on IH in my size.
Managed to find one at a stockist (Franklin & Poe in Philly – 30 miles up the road from me), and received it today. Just have to say (like others have said) that the pics don't do the shirt justice. Just an excellent piece in person. And the color way, coupled with the weight of the fabric, equals a really versatile shirt. Will be worn often because of the versatility. Exceeded expectations -- and I always have high expectations. That says a lot (to me at least).
