      I hand washed mine before I saw this post. I was more worried about white marks and streaking.  This shirt is going to look amazing with time, It seems to fade as fast as loom breakers do!

      madmonday's retired….I'm just tired.

        @Giles I had the same issue with my shirt as well. I think mine are a bit small. Mine was done on delicate as well and hung out to dry. I think I have two of those, both on the back side of the shirt - kidney area.

        Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

          Both, I think from what I can see, this is just an irregularity in the weave, I do not think it is of major concern.  But if you are worried that it is a weakness/something you do not like, PM me.

            Thanks. I’m not concerned. I wouldn’t have known of others having the same occurrence had I not looked at the forum page. It’s a lovely shirt and as it’s a work shirt I’m LIVIN in it! When it goes through the wash again I’ll let you know how it gets on. Joe

                No worries G, I'm not very concerned either.
                I'll report back once I wash mine again as well to see if anything else develops.

                    Nice update @Broark.  That shirt looks like it will age beautifully.

                      Bought in July, but first real wear today as the weather finally broke below 90F in Florida…

                          As much as I like this shirt I wasn’t happy with the white buttons it came with. I ordered it with a GAH button one down from the top. I recently got a set of blue cat eye buttons from IHUK and wanted to share the changes.

                          First blue cat eye in there; they are nearly turquoise

                          Finished…I definitely prefer the tonal buttons in this case.

                          Thank you for the buttons @Giles  😉 😉

                          The journey is the objective.

                                  I’m tempted to put all metal buttons on mine a la IHSH-75 …

                                  I’ve been wearing it more as an over shirt / light jacket this summer... excited to be able to wear it with jackets this fall/winter

                                  Here it is over a very thin RRL dress shirt

                                    Nicely done. I’m always struck by how rich the colour of this is.

                                      @Appfaff Don't do it! I was tempted to go the other way with my 75 and put white on it 😃

                                      The devil is in the detail..

                                        [mention]neph93 [/mention] - yes, it’s a great color, and with about 10 wears on it, the combs on the arm are already throwing indigo. I’m go g to try to make it through the winter before a wash.

                                        [mention]AdamJ [/mention] - always a voice of reason!
