IHSB-BIGBUCK-BLK - Black Deerskin Western Shirt - The Big Buck
-
@Chap As an owner of one of these magnificent shirts, thank you! It was easily my most worn shirt last season, and with the temperatures dropping has already been worn a few times this season.
I’m glad you’ve been instrumental in this shirt/process and the story makes it just a little more special.

What are the instructions to take care of this product if sweating wearing it ? can we wash it ?
-
I hand washed my Big Buck with no ill effects. Cold water, hand wash, minimal detergent. When I took mine out of the tub, I gently laid it on a towel and blotted it dry with another dry towel to absorb excess water. At no point did I try to squeeze the water out and I kept the shirt as flat as possible during the process. It took a full day for it to dry at room temperature (no sun).
Mine is as soft and maybe just a little softer than when I first received it.
These are just my observations…
Please note: I had a knot in my stomach the entire time during this process and did it as an experiment. It worked for me, but during the process I can definitely see where it could go wrong. If you try to squeeze the leather to remove excess water or wring it dry, you will stretch the leather out of shape and there is no way (that I know of) to return it back to it's previous shape.
Please use this with caution and I take no responsibility if your results do not turn out the same….

Thanks for the share @goosehd, i will give it a try when it will start being really dirty, did you get some patina evolutions after wearing it for a whole season ?

Really great insight [mention]Chap [/mention] This shirt is on my radar and knowing this makes me want it even more.

@Chap, I have only now discovered this Big Buck's existence. Peerless.
You wear it well, and I also love the bits of your environment that are in the background shots here.
You have an overload of style.
All excellence. -
We are going to restock some of these today. The leather takes so long to come from Germany, and we have been sitting on a lot of these for a while, waiting for the remainder to arrive. I decided today that we would put what we can of ours online today, then fulfil the retailer orders from the next batch. We will get a handful more after that too, so if you miss this drop, there will be more following.

Got my 3XL, the only hard part was deciding between the black or olive...and before someone says just get both - not sure the wife would be super thrilled about that idea lol.

Bought this beautiful piece almost two years ago and have not regretted it
