IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black

[FlavourFade]

@bluemantra to me personally the 295 has much more grail potential than the kersey. I just prefer the fabric over the Kelsey also, the super high contrast fades and the break in process are very rewarding imo.

So if I'm lucky with the size I will still get one on friday even if I'm comitted to the 295bb for redline rally

@FlavourFade the 295 b/b is much tougher but I love it, the two 295s are my favorite western shirts

[isXnext]

Really want this one but not sure I can justify it with already owning the 409.

Hoping a 295-IND is released someday...

[Tago Mago]

@isXnext is weight of the denim the deciding factor? If not, maybe check out IHSH-33-IND if you are looking for an indigo warp/natural weft denim shirt. There are other differences in the cloth, too, as explained here, so plenty to ponder

[FlavourFade]

@isXnext 409 is a cpo 295 is a western that justifies it enough mate or go with the @Tago-Mago idea but 12 oz is a completely different feeling..

Trying to talk myself into actually needing this release as opposed to just wanting it even though I've already managed to purchase more than double figures in Ironheart Shirts in the last 2 years since first getting to know their magnificent products, and don't have really significant fades on any of them yet with trying to keep them all in a reasonable rotation.

I am allowed to purchase when it's really verging on a reckless extravagance.

@M800sct1 so long as you wear this one till the threads are bare!.. at some point! Lol

[M800sct1]

That's definitely the right advice I think Oaktavia.

Don't know that I really want to leave it on the Shelf.

Then it would be, What if, or Should I have!!

Think I'll end up goin with that.

[FlavourFade]

@M800sct1 I don't see anything wrong in wanting something you don't need. As long as you can afford it that should not be a problem.

Talking fades, I try to commit to a certain piece for some time and when I start feeling bored I wear something else for the next couple days or weeks

[isXnext]

@FlavourFade Oh man, now you're sounding just like that voice in my own head.

I've convinced myself I don't need yet another 12oz western. 14oz is one I don't yet have. Really enjoy both the 13oz serge and 16oz SBG... now I'm wanting the one between those two.

That is, until IH releases a 15oz of some sort. Then the cycle continues.

[FlavourFade]

@isXnext the 16 oz is very hardcore compared to the 14 oz which also is stiffer and needs more break in compared to the 12oz fabrics. For me 14 oz is the absolute sweetspot, allyear wear - shacket for summer evenings or commuting and shirt from fall to spring

@M800sct1 I’ve got over 300 wears on mine and it just gets better and better. Very soft too.

[FlavourFade]

@Davids_denim I think I saw yours on instagram - looks absolutely amazing

[Davids_denim]

@FlavourFade thank you! I really appreciate that.

@Davids_denim

That's a lot of wears David. How long is that over?

[M800sct1]

I notice that Ironheart Germany has just posted within their add that this Shirt is not Included in the Sale.

[Davids_denim]

@M800sct1 a year and some change.

[M800sct1]

@Davids_denim

That's certainly pretty consistent wearing in a year and some change David.

I'm well impressed.

Snagged a large. I tried to resist, but alas, I am an addict.
