IHSH-211 - 17oz Duck CPO Style Shirt - Brown
-
With the longer sleeves @Jett129 I've found that you can wear a long shirt underneath, like a waffle henley, and get that tres satisfying feeling of pulling those inner sleeves down further too. This is a great piece. Wear it in good health!

Has anyone ever tried to use Otterwax or the like on Iron Heart's duck fabric? I have used it on an old Pointer chore coat. It looked amazing. Wondering what might happen with IH gear.

I’ve tried otter wax on an old Gustin waxed trucker jacket. Didn’t like the outcome and otter wax stinks to high heaven. Ymmv

Duck canvas in general takes wax very well. It was the original waxed fabric seeing as it was used for making sails. Waxing was used so the sails would give greater wind resistance making them more effective. Old sails were then cut up to make waterproof clothing, headgear etc.
The relatively flat, even face of duck canvas means the wax takes to the fabric in a pleasing way. Waxing slubby denim for example, while having a waterproofing effect is going to look like a dogs dinner.
I’ve seen IH duck that has been waxed on the threads here from back in the day, but I can’t remember from when or where. Use the search function and you should find something.

Just ordered one of these this morning. I always liked the idea of the pockets on the shirt and have been looking at the denim one for a couple years. I couldn’t justify yet another denim shirt so when I saw this one I had to go for it.

^that looks great!

I really thought this CPO had completely sold out…just jumped on the last XXL. Measurements looked good. My first IH duck AND CPO in one hit. Fit pics on arrival.

I love this damn thing! I can wear with just a tee, or a UHF. So glad I decided to go with this. Thanks @Alex and crew for the amazingly excellent service yet again:

Very clean look and it seems to match those boots perfectly . . .
Agree with this wise man ^
Smashed this combination out of our galaxy Mr T [emoji573]

@Paul9221 thank you, I think I could have worn this combo with 8 inch neon pink stilleto heals and it would still look good! Duck and denim is just a match made in heaven. This is a great shirt/jacket.
Ive kept my beard shorter this past few months so I can trim it myself. Life cursed me with a good beard growth but a crappy hairline!
@den1mhead likewise, thanks buddy. I hope you and Jules are well? I've missed you around these parts.

On a side note, I'm a big fan of your beard.
StuartT’s beard is epic. I shaved mine off because It looked horrible on me and I didn’t exactly have decent growth.

@Stuart.T we are back in UK and will be home tomorrow. Both of us are well thanks. On a personal note I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to being reunited with my clothes [emoji16] [emoji106]

So glad I bought this. It will be a favorite for years. It’s cut and measured perfectly for me.
P.s. for some reason I never know where to hold my hands when my picture is taken, so I just go with the “confused limbs” look.
Iron Heart for the win.
