IHSH-216-BLK - Heavy Moleskin CPO Shirt - Black
-
Excellent! How is the warmth of moleskin?
Similar to any of the other IH heavyweight shirts.
There is no loft in the fabric to trap air so don't expect any insulating effect. Perhaps the dense weave is slightly more windproof than average but I'd be shocked if this is something you could actually notice.
@DrPat is exactly right. I would say this is a little less warm than a UHF but still a beast. The 10oz moleskin has some nice wind proofing but it’s no replacement for a jacket in Minnesota winters. If you purchase as an out layer you will be happy with it as a “shacket”.
You will not regret owning IH Moleskin this I promise you.

Cash if you don't want the fade, surge if you do, mole if you want the comfort. But fit is King…Trust your gut!

Such a comfy fabric and such a sucker for big brass snaps!

Great shirt. It is equally comfy and hearty/badass. You wear it great @Dishelveled
-
Thank you, brother! You ain't kidding–stout and sturdy, def feels bramble proof thick.

FYI, Self Edge has restocked these and they are currently available in all sizes. I gave in and bought one. Sized up to a large since I want to wear this as a shacket over flannels, hoodies, etc. Looking forward to this one as everyone's fit pics for all colors of the 216 look great.

Any chance the IHSH-216 - Brown Moleskin CPO Shirt will be making an appearance this fall or winter?
Would love black and brown

Thanks for the response @Giles.
Olive Drab it is!

Was really excited when I saw the restock at SENY. Having 5 UHFs that usually are my winter wardrobe this is similar but different. I really dig the stealthy look and bigger snaps. I think the SE version has the perfect weight and the handwarmer pockets will also make it a great lightweight spring jacket. Will find a better shot without a jacket! Highly recommend

Great pickup @Alexander. I got this shirt when it first released at SE and I wear it in constant rotation. I don't beat it up though, and as such it's only been washed once. Seeing your post had me inspired to wear it today.
-
Does this shirt stretch with wear? From what I’ve read on the forum, the answer’s no, but I want to double check. Thanks!
-
@Aziomatic I have this exact one and no it doesn’t stretch at all. I love it for that very reason. It’s toughness to silky ratio is so impressive.

If the shirt won’t expand then I must shrink. Need to find some Richard Simmons instructionals.
