Iron Heart X Simmons Bilt Horsehide Western Shirt - The Pale Rider - Natural

[doubletee]

@indigostiff I’m 6’1, 85kg, 40.5 inch chest and this is an XL

[indigostiff]

@doubletee Yeah - you're in a tough spot - height and weight check out for an XL, but chest is for an L -- decisions...

[A Former User]

@doubletee noted you know where to find me haha

[FlavourFade]

@doubletee it's on the bigger side but I don't think you are swimming in it. Maybe go lift some heavy stuff and it will fit perfect

[long_john86]

@doubletee I think it looks good mate, but then I’m all about the more relaxed fit. Do you tend to wear it primarily as a shirt rather than a ‘shacket’? Might changing how you wear it for the foreseeable help with the decision making process?

[pechelman]

how do the shoulders feel right now? They look at the minimum you might need on this XL and going down a size might be problematic. When the shoulders get too narrow they start to fight my range of motion.

[doubletee]

Thanks all. Got a L to try on for size. Know where my head is at now. What d’yall think?

[A Former User]

@doubletee they look both great! The L is a tad more fitted and is still looking great! The XL is more on the comfy side which is my preference but if you’re looking for a more fitted look the L is def great on you

[ARNC]

@doubletee, I agree. Maybe depends if your future looks like or

[weftyarn]

@doubletee I almost can’t tell the two from each other… In other words: Both look phenomenal
Only thing I can notice is the L doesn’t show the „excess material“ folds above the pocket flaps / near the arm pits. But maybe it’s just because the leather is still new and stiff…

I’ve lost a bit of weight over the last few months and feel this is started to feel too big

side topic, but what tee shirt are you wearing here?

[indigostiff]

Average kudos per wear - 2/day

[long_john86]

@FlavourFade hey mate, what size pale rider are you wearing in these pics? This could be a great reference point for me when the time comes! ️

[long_john86]

@doubletee what was the final verdict bud? Keep both?!

[goosehd]

@long_john86 Might want to read this depending on what leather you are looking for:

@Alex said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:

Yeah man, fully agree with you. We actually are going to be discontinuing the pale rider in its current form as the leather from Italy is not a good enough standard, often enough, to make sense commercially.

Steve has to reject 80% of what he's sent, and it causes too much work all round. He's currently in discussion with Blattwerk regarding a natural leather from them that is a similar colour to the pale rider now to replace it with, and then we could consider a rough out one to go alongside the 'restock' of the smooth out

[long_john86]

@goosehd cheers mate, much appreciated for bringing that to my attention! 80%! Killer…

[FlavourFade]

@long_john86 I am wearing an XXL in the picture

Any advice on getting out coffee stains? Wiped it down fully with a rag and letting it dry in the sun. Liquid marks isn't something i really wanted on the shirt. I'm assuming i'll just need to wait for them to blend in slightly with wear

[pechelman]

it can't be any worse than brake fluid stains.

[marco23d]

haha first thing i did was go back to see his progress photos to see if they got any better
