      I’m not joking. I prefer the cut off sleeve look to a hemmed sleeveless shirt.

      The hemmed ones are not as comfortable as cutoffs too.

        Is the IHSH-75 the only denim work shirt that Iron Heart has produced with metal buttons?

          Hey friends. I’m wondering about honeycombs behind the knees shifting after a wash. I super hot soaked my XHSbb and got some shrinkage. Not sure if I should just warm machine wash em now to get max shrinkage (kinda scared of marbling…I know some don’t mind marbling but I’d prefer not to get any. Soaking through before wash helps I know too)

          My question here is, if I wear em hard for awhile and then wash em in 6 months and get that shrinkage in the length, will those combs shift significantly enough to get misaligned? I’ve heard it’s a thing, but never experienced it myself.

          In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

            I remember it being the button of choice for their non-flannel workshirts for one season, which included the indigo/black wabash fabrics. Can't recall what year that was.

              Thanks @J-IV . I just nabbed a denim workshirt on eBay in nearly new condition, and it has the metal buttons. I’m trying to work out what iteration I’ve just bought.
              Ivy mate at work has an indigo wabash with metal buttons (I told him about IH a couple of years ago and he went on a splurge), and it looks really cool.

                @jerkules yeah, I really liked them but there was some QA issue which is why they stopped using them.

                Luckily we have GAH options now which is 10x cooler but.. well you know.. 🤑

                  @jerkules I believe for specifically denim work models that’s the only one. The aluminum buttons have been on others like the wabash and a 9oz unnrushed flannel but only the 75 for straight denim. I think.

                    Hey guys and gals, I have an opportunity to buy the 16OZ NON-SELVEDGE DENIM WESTERN SHIRT - SUPERBLACK (FADES TO GREY) from a private party. I got the pit to pit and everything checks out size wise at 24" Why is this shirt labeled SP Large? I guess it means special? If anyone could enlighten me further I would appreciate it. Havent seen any other shirts by Iron Heart labeled like this. Thanks so much!!!!!

                      SP Large is XXXXL.  We don't have XXXXL labels….

                                          LHT vs RHT over time?

                                          Hello,
                                          Looking for my first pair of quality jeans which took me to Iron Heart. Kind of overwhelming at first but think I narrowed down to 666 19oz LHT or 666 18oz vintage (I hitch I assume is RHT?). I need a little help deciding between the two. I’ve read that LHT tends to be a little softer but not sure how noticeable that is. I think I’m more concerned with how they will look as they fade and age. Any advice or comparison pics over time would be very appreciated!

                                          Thanks!

                                            you find everything you are looking for in the specific threads 😉
                                            there is one for every cut and kind of denim. You can find the link on the product page .
                                            from my experience the 19oz LHT is not softer than the 18oz . the only LHT that gets really soft is the 21oz lht .
                                            if you want it really soft , take 21oz 😉
