IHSH-295-BB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Black/Black

[Oaktavia]

To echo @nytimes_gaiden I recall the shirt being a little big on me before the first wash. Shrunk in all the right places but just a tad.

Nice Steve looking mate ..

Thanks dude I've been wearing it as much as possible…only change into different shirts for work so I don't teach in the same shirt everyday. Been wearing it to bed when my wife is away for work too. Really starting to shed black dye like crazy. Couple of early washes I think accelerated the dye loss.

Had a great day in Maryland today.

Heck yeah dude glad you enjoyed my home state. Fit looks excellent too!

Incredible. That's a beautiful thing. Too bad there are no XL's left in stock.

I'll just put away 1000 SEK (swedish crowns) every month until this thing is available in my size.

Will it take 3 long months perhaps? More/Less? Who cares, as long as it restocks sometime soon.

@Oaktavia amazing fades!

Holy shit! Nice work man, I've just given my 14oz bb jeans a wash and they're no way near as good as this! @Oaktavia

Awesome job on the shirt. That looks amazing.

[Oaktavia]

Thanks homies

@AdamJ thank you for recommending this shirt dude I wear it a lot

[AdamJ]

@Oaktavia no worries man! I hoped it could fill the void till you can get stuck in to 16oz SBG next year

I am blown away by the progress here @Oaktavia. I’d think you’d have to be chopping wood 10 hours a day to get so much evo so fast. I’m approaching a first wash on mine and took your advice to wear it to bed some nights.

Haha I just wear it a lot buddy. I wear it to work three days/week and on most weekends when I'm not wearing an UHF. I wear it to bed almost every night now…and that's it. Washing helps lighten the shirt up a bit too (in a machine). Have you washed yours yet? After my third wash it was noticeably different.

Edit: I would like to add I wore it over the summer indoors with an AC unit in the window and a fan going...it was super hot and quite uncomfortable but I wore it anyway. Consistent wear over 10-12 hour days and nights helped with the evo on my shirt.

I've been eyeing the posts down about the 16oz SBG (and your 21oz Type III SBG) but my 295 will be my last black top for now. My wife and I have two golden retrievers and their hair is always, ALWAYS covered over the darkness of the shirt. It was/is a daily struggle to remove it using lint rollers…sometimes I would use 5-6 sheets to get it all off.

Plus, I do not have a indigo/white/natural denim shirt in my rotation yet. I have the 295ib and 295bb and now I'm after something heavy and indigo for next year. Any recommendations for a heavy 16-18oz western?

@Oaktavia I have an IHSH 177 CPO up for sale. It’s the second iteration of that shirt which was made from 18OZ denim. I hardly wore it. If the measurements work ,it might be perfect for you. It’s an XXL.   

[AdamJ]

@Jett129 has you covered @Oaktavia the 18oz denim we used on the 177 was a beast!

[Oaktavia]

@Jett129 thanks for the heads up- I actually saw your post and considered messaging you but I'm not quite in the market yet for a new purchase. I also checked the measurements and am not sure an XXL would work…I would likely go for an XXXL if I could choose a new one.

Any sight on a restock?
