IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
The sleeves are also quite narrow through the bicep for an overshirt…
Also a design feature to benefit riders. You don’t want wind billowing up the inside of your sleeves.
I have the IHSH-178 (previous iteration), the chest dims are the same as an XL shirt, but the shoulder and waist are wider and the arms are longer. I’m a t-rex and flip most cuffs anyway.

@Mike_Lima_Papa It looks great through the chest and amazing overall. I have a shirt that is a little long in the sleeves and the best solution I've found is to basically fold the cuff in half when it's fully buttoned instead of a full cuff unbuttoned. It tightens the cuff so it will sit neatly at the base of the hand and not have the floppy upturned cuff to deal with all the time.
this is how mine looks upturned (Nine Lives 19 oz chino fabric). It may not work with the larger buttons but worth a shot.
also, check out that triple stitching…
-
@jordanscollected Great suggestion! It's not perfect, because of the double snaps on the cuff, but still an improvement on the fully-flipped cuff. The full-cuff flip is fine for now while the fabric is at its most rigid, but as it softens it won't hold as well.

Blues popping. Bluebells…..

It was a stormy, windy day in Seattle, and I am astonished at how impressively wind resistant this shirt is. Even with a t-shirt under it, I felt absolutely nothing through the sleeves.
-
This has definitely broken in really, really well. It's not as buttery soft as my 33 is, yet, but it's amazingly comfortable, and works great over long-sleeve shirts especially well. The overdye works really well as a contrast piece with indigo denim, too (these are Oni 20oz secret denim 9 fits today). Just a really great piece to wear almost every day.
-
Any hints on when the 292 will be dropping? The more I wear this or my 33, the more I realize I need to make it a trio.

Says mid-May here:

Though they will not actually be ready in Japan until late this week, so I'd work on late-May…
-
Lol, thanks! Yeah, I saw it said mid-May but it's also already mid-May now…

A perfect representation of why to keep the slightly oversized 293 @richard. looks great with the hoodie and cargos
-
Thanks @jordanscollected and @neph93. It really is a great jacket.
-
What an awesome outfit overall!! Great fit on the CPO Richard!

Thanks man. I think sometimes you can get hung up on the descriptive word. I'm often a small in high street products, sometimes a medium, very rarely a large, and never, ever an xl. I have medium, large and one xl in IH shirts. You've gotta go with the measurements and the look…..

Bit of a stupid question cause 18oz is really hefty, but how comfortable/wearable/breathable is this denim? I ask ‘cause I find weight to not always tell the whole picture, a bit like how IH 21oz denim or 10oz chambray are on paper “heavy”, yet are really easy to wear even on hot days.
Is this shirt really just for colder temperatures? Really interested in picking one up, but want to be confident that it’ll get plenty of wear.

This shirt is very wind resistant, I think due to a tight weave. I take this as a plus, but it's not a shirt for the hottest days. On a merely warm day you may be able to get away with it better than a UHF because the fabric isn't brushed.
