IHSB-BIGBUCK-OLV - Deerskin Western Shirt The Big Buck - Olive

[jfk1117]

@AdamC Any chance the restock on these means we are closer to the natural big bucks?

[AdamC]

@jfk1117 It doesn't mean that in this case I am afraid

[goosehd]

@AdamC My self control is extremely compromised right now after looking at the pictures of the tannery…just popped over to see if there were any xl’s laying about and there are not…

Good thing for the wallet, but now I want one even more…

I don’t know if I should thank you guys or curse you

[louisbosco]

saw this when I was over few weeks back. highly tempting but I also like the natural...

[goosehd]

@louisbosco …so do I and will probably end up with all of the flavours at some point.

My black one is awesome

[Digitalrbb]

Got mine for Xmas. This pice is simply amazing - I own a ton Of IH - but this is heads and tails my fav piece !! Contemplating whether to pull the trigger on the black one.

[Jcaz6996]

@Digitalrbb 100% agree with you what a shirt !!!
I bought the Olive in 2022 and bought the black Big Buck in December 2023

Could any of you fine clothed gentlemen advise on the fit of this beautiful garment? I’m a pretty solid XXL across the board for IH shirts which gives me the sleeve length I need and a relaxed (but not too relaxed) fit.
From the images on here I’m guessing most wear it as you would another shirt (rather than oversizing and using as a top layer).
Assuming there is a nice smell with this too?

[Alex]

I am wearing XXL in most recent shirts, and take XXL in this. It has a smell, but not an unpleasant one

[kkibbey23]

I’ve noticed the smell, do you think it will go away? My black one doesn’t seem to have it as much

[Alex]

I suspect some people here who have had one longer than me can confirm

[Jcaz6996]

The Black Big Buck doesn’t smell but the olive does and as Alex mentioned it’s a nice smell had mine over a year and it still smells the same . I’ve gone for the same size as I have done in all my westerns a size Medium

[indigostiff]

Restocked, it appears.

[long_john86]

@Jcaz6996 @Alex thanks both very useful and much appreciated! I’ll dig into your Staff Measurements in a bit more detail as well Alex!

[marco23d]

I stuck with my normal iron heart sizing for shirts as well. The shirt has a good weight and warmth to it. My olive does not have a smell to it

[Andymac]

@marco23d yup my olive has a strange scent, the black doesn't

[indigostiff]

Just curious, these holes appear to be in the item I am looking at purchasing. Should they affect the shirt's integrity, or are they just superficial, from those who have seen such holes?

Thank you.

@indigostiff It is the nature of the animal and declared so in the first post of this thread:

“The leather used on this shirt is made of hides from deers living in the woods and mountains of Germany and Austria. They are not kept as livestock or in barns like cows, they run free through the woods and hills. Many of the hides will show scars which are a byproduct of the antlered males fighting with one another during the rutting season.”

…also to add:

@Giles said in IHSB-BIGBUCK-BLK - Black Deerskin Western Shirt - The Big Buck:

This is what we say on the product page:

There is scarring to the hides, we try to avoid as much as we can, but there may be small imperfections in the hide - if you can't embrace the perfection-is-in-the-imperfections, then this shirt is not for you

[indigostiff]

@goosehd No, I get scars. But holes is a different level.
