    @T4920

    Well am having a new experience
    With my 33 indigo shirt
    Starch the arm on the inside.
    Cuff them pull the sleeves up like this

    Been wearing under 19oz CPO to set the creases

    Now you can see the results

      @T4920 I had a long sleeve shirt converted to a short sleeve shirt by a local tailor and it was an easy and inexpensive fix.

        Is it really that different from pants?

          Hang or fold? Waffle, Kersey & dobby IH shirt storage

          I feel like this is a question that is either very obvious or has already been answered a million times, but my Google and forum search skills have failed me.

          How should I store my Iron Heart shirts?

          Specifically, I'm wondering about the best way to stash these fabrics without stretching or creasing them:

          Waffle
          Kersey cloth
          5 oz & 12 oz dobby cloth

          Should I hang 'em or fold 'em?

          I'd really appreciate any advice from those who have experience with these specific fabrics. Thanks in advance for
          your help!

          Cheers

            I hang all my shirts. Fold my tee shirts.

              @Mizmazzle said in Hang or fold? Waffle, Kersey & dobby IH shirt storage:

              Hanging has traditionally been my approach, but I also haven't spent much time contemplating shirt storage until I discovered IH. Now all I think about is shirts.

              I have no concerns about what to do with my non-denim/serge/chambray shirts, but the Kerseys, waffles and dobbys of the world are new to me.

                @whacim Just a quick heads up that I moved your question to here.

                  If it has a collar, I hang it. If it doesn’t, I don’t.

                      newbie questions :

                      1. Current XHS ( 666,634, etc ) & IH Beatle Buster 25oz ( i believe it was competition denim around 2013-2015ish ) are those the same or different fabric?

                      2. i have 666 xhs ( my first IH ) and i soak it, and i think it fits better, if i were to buy say 21oz IH ( 634s, 888s, etc ), do i have to soak it first too? or can i just wear it on the get go?

                        1. Same
                        2. No need to soak

                            IH Beatle Buster

                            Was Beatle a former crew member/mod? I see the name a lot flicking through old threads, I assume these jeans were named after him her?

                                    Question still stands though. Was she prominent member of this forum in the early days?

                                      @T4920 Yes, Beatle was one of the originals here on the forum and a few still remain to this day. As @Giles mentioned one time that the forum used to be a small group of people, like minded, who shared a love of denim. There are many pictures of the group together and some of the shenanigans that they used to get into.

                                      If I can find the thread, there are pictures of many of them together in Japan on one of those trips.
