IHSH-246-NIN - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt – Natural Indigo

[the246guy]

I need some help in getting this dirty collar cleaned. It is a result of just soaking the shirt for the first few months as I did not want to throw it into the washing machine. This kind of resulted in that collar area accumulating some dirt and now I'm finding it hard to get that away.

Any ideas?

I think the natural indigo is pretty resilient so I dont think a gentle wash would hurt it. Or just spot clean it with some fels naptha or the like but watch for agitation so you dont take off too much dye.

@the246guy I bought the ox gall soap I mentioned in the IHSH-235-OLV thread especially for dirty / greasy collars. I have some good experiences with that.

I used to rub in my collars with shampoo previously before a wash but I found that left a too perfumy odor, which I didn't like.

As long as you don't scrub in the detergent too roughly, it should target the stain and not cause too much fading I think. Although I feel a somewhat faded collar also goes naturally with the aging of the shirt. So I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Both will retire for the summer and be back for the fall season. Freshly washed, they go back to the garage for now!

This was up for sale.
Didn’t fell through. So I worn it for a bit.. didn’t like the long sleeves kinda annoying me all the times
So chop it down.
Mostly will do the same with my other shirts if that the case.

Now am in love with the shirt and can show off my Bracelet’s

@Anesthetist

Only like buying the 7.5oz tees

The 246-NIN is one of the shirts I wear the most and yet it stubbornly holds on to its color. That must be the natural Indigo...

Only the "edges" of the shirt and the roping show some more contrast:

@Lowlander looks great, wish I'd got one!

[Kasi]

That’s look good. More easier to fade than the 33 indigo

FYI, Self Edge has one XXL still in stock for anyone looking for this shirt in that size.
