      I was under the impression that the black snaps were Heavy Duty and more substantial than the stock ones.

      There are effectively 2 types of snaps we use, heavy duty and "ordinary".  The "upgrades" just give you the ability to swap out the snap for one of the other stock options.

        Just placed the order for this shirt. It stands sold out at most retailers here in Germany. Was lucky to snap one in size M. Very excited to receive this shirt.

          You will not be disappointed. It’s totally different then your beloved 246, but then again not. It is much sturdier, but the depth it has due to being all black is unparalleled.

            As of date, both my 246-NIN's have been the most worn IH shirts, next to the Military Serge in Green. This JC will be my next denim shirt from IH which I believe will be just another shirt that will see most wear. I'm super stoked.

              The Man in Black’ is again the inspiration for this black denim western shirt, AKA ‘The Johnny Cash lll’. The 12oz black selvedge denim has reactive dyed warp and weft so that the shirt will retain its stealth look and will not fade with wear.

              We have decided that the fabric has probably been subtly changed on these without anyone telling us. We do not find this shirt fades with time, even a little bit (of course it ages, but does not fade). We have updated the product to reflect this.

                @Alex Is this for all Johnny Cash III’s or just a newer version?  Should a new designation be issued “Johnny Cash IV”?

                  We are not updating the SKU, no. I suspect that this has been the case either forever, and the shrink test gave some false results, or the fabric was changed on its second run in 2019

                            @Max Power 's answer to how many IH things you need, was always the best.

                            I'll paraphrase….

                            The number you need is always the number you have already, plus one

                              Thanks so much for this beta as this was exactly what I was wondering : does this shirt fade at all?
                              Just put mine back on and I see neary a fade anyway after 2 years of intermittent albeit not enough wear

                                my measuring is always off.
                                I'm XL in 9oz Selvedge Ombré Check Western Shirt and XL in Murasaki but when I measure theses 2 shirts that fit me good the measurements are not the same as in the sizing details on each of those shirts
                                .Would an XL of the Johnny Cash be a shirt fit for me?

                                    Cash was on my wishlist so when it restocked I went to pick it up from my local retailer. But the sleeves was too short on the one large  they have. And XL was to boxy in the chest for me. I went home and wrote to IH and Ben managed to find one with longer sleeves and what looked like perfect measurements for me. It came today. I think it’s spot on. I know what to wear tomorrow at new year .
                                    Have a great one
                                    Cheers

                                          @PJ That looks like a perfect tailored fit. I was also so keen to get this shirt, but the measurements did not work out for me. I went with the 295-BB, fade to gray denim. Nevertheless, the JC is a great shirt to have in the collection.

                                            @the246guy I was bummed when the measurements didn’t fit me but IH solved that one perfectly . The 295 is a great choice and perfect for the fades. I’m gonna use the Cash a lot for my work as a representative so it suits me fine that it won’t fade to grey.
                                            Happy new year .
