Shout out to Josh on the IH team for dealing with my shit and making a last minute swap mid order for me!

That’s an interesting way that you rolled the sleeves up. Mine are a little bit long. How did you do that? @GTPowers

Yah I've stubs for arms. Takes a minute to get used to but I stop noticing after awhile. I will say that I typically spray-soak the arms of a new shirt or jacket to set in stacks, which I've done at this point and its shortened them up to a comfortable level.

I do that on my left cuff for my watch since it is bulky and IH has thin cuffs for riding. On westerns I’ll button the first of the two snaps going down the sleeve and just fold the rest of the cuff back and it stays neatly in place on every single IH western I have in any weight. In some cases I’ll button it back if there’s no snap.

@mclaincausey Thank you so much for explaining how to do that,I wouldn’t have thought of it/figured it out in a million years. It’s just the little bit that I needed on so many of my shirts,and it looks cool to boot. Brilliant!

I think I may have stolen it from madmonday but I can’t be sure. Glad it helps, @Jett129 !

Patina everywhere but trying to hold out on a first wash.

Great evo on the shirt!

I have to agree with @Dmart : great evolution @Oaktavia

I decided to wait for the restock of the Johnny Cash. While I prefer a fade to grey regarding my jeans, I am looking for a black shirt that (almost) stays black.

How is your shirt looking @dmart?

[Dmart]

@Mickey GT not mich to report yet. Couldn’t get much wear of this one. Only wore it three four times.

I just soaked my shirt with the hose out back and threw it in the machine washer. It was getting a little too much patina, which I didnt know was a thing. It really shows with the darkness if the denim, has a glossy sheen to it. In fact, everything shows. It's nice as hell in regards to how inky black it is, but an ungodly amount of dog hair sticks to it. Really stands out as my puppies have light hair. It takes no time at all to get absolutely covered in golden fur. Hoping this wash will lighten up the black a tad so it doesn't show as much. I remember my XHSbb showed fur much less noticeably after a few washes in the machine combined with daily wear.

@Oaktavia  how’s it looking after a wash mate ?

[Oaktavia]

Wash worked out really well. All the folds have stayed place and it was nice and crispy afterwards. I can take photos tomorrow.

@Jcaz6996 post wash photos.

I think the outdoor photos make it look a bit blue but in person the shirt is black as the night.  Grey's popping out for sure though. Smoky greys. ️

@AdamJ progress so far…

[AdamJ]

@Oaktavia awesome work man!

[Oaktavia]

@AdamJ thanks dude, you were the one that pointed me this shirt so I figured I'd tag ya.

@Oaktavia I think that the 14oz BB or maybe 16oz SBG    will be my next shirt project
