IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black

[Kirk]

Love all the action in this thread. @Oaktavia your shirt looks amazing and echo your sentiments about the grey stitching. Provides just the right amount of contrast.

I went with pearl snaps on mine. Change it up from the black snaps on my 33 indigo and black.

Oooo dig the pearl

Looks great!  I pimped my IHSH-326-IND with the pearl snaps and love them.  I'm waiting for the restock of the 295-IB and will likely upgrade to copper snaps like the CPOs.

Copper will look great on this one, especially with the grey stitching

[Oaktavia]

Copper snaps are definitely my favorite type.

It will just keep on with wearing regularly. I did a couple soapy soaks ar first and then switched to washing machine. At least five machine washes and hung to dry.

[Daniel San]

try to wear it 1-2 times a week.
I have too much cool IH stuff 
just bought the olive and grey western and wabash western this week 🥳 need more storage room soon

@Aetas that actually looks better cropped…dig the way it looks against just white wall like you show here.

Here is a photo from the line on vacation in Kure Beach, NC. Last year I tried hanging a pair of 21oz from this line and didn't use enough clothes pins. It ended up flopping soping wet on the grass overnight. I'm not playing around this time  ;

This might be a TMI…but the pits were so stanky after the long drive yesterday that I ended up having to machine wash it twice to get the stink out  I think that makes them the 7th and 8th washes but I'm but so sure.

Anyone hesitant to machine wash please be rest assured the shirt takes well to them. Nothing like a clean crispy shirt in the morning. Creases and fades have remained unshifted.

[Oaktavia]

Machine wash number 8 has really popped out the bright whites!!! Just took it off the line. A little bit of marbling but I love it! Fecking hell I love this shirt. Wearing it now and the elbow creases fell right back into place. So satisfying.

[Daniel San]

Holy smokes it looks awesome
Think I have to wash mine too these days, not smelling yet but quite salty in the pits

@Oaktavia your shirt is certainly earning it’s keep on here today. I’m not complaining - it clearly deserves its day in the Sun!
