      Buttons on a western is impossible I guess. Not sure if it cam be modified? Have anyone done it before? I might consider it.

                X post from WAYWT with some shrinkage info. Wanted this one to tighten up just a bit and got what I wanted with a hot wash and dry. This shirt really grew on me and so glad I was able to get one.

                Hope it makes sense.

                  Just received mine from the outlet and it’s outstanding. Super fast shipping and amazing service as always. This will be my go to summer shirt and I realized that it’s my first workshirt from IH! Only took 10 years to switch from western haha. Threw it on immediately for an armchair zoom meeting

                    @moto I have the western version of this and can’t for the life of me figure out why they didn’t sell.. the fabric is beautiful isn’t it? I’d get the red version too but I’m struggling to warm to the colour combination. Hoping some more madras shirts to come for SS25.

                      @DeeDee85 I really didn't dig these at all when they dropped, but pictures like the one posted above really makes the quality and texture of the fabric really shine through.

                      Purely based on the product photos, dare I say I thought these looked a little cheap... but now I want one 😆

                      I really think IH could benefit from some addition quality photos in natural light on their product pages, it's something the Self Edge does so well! I often use their outdoor photographs as a reference point when deciding on potential purchases..

                        @DeeDee85 yes the fabric is unreal and so sturdy for the weight. I’m looking forward to seeing how it looks and feels after a few washes.

                          @T4920 the fabric is unreal and I agree pictures don’t do it justice but come on, would IH ever compromise on fabric quality? I think we all know the answer.

                          As an aside, my wife called it ‘cute’ and couldn’t believe it was IH haha.

                            @moto I don't doubt that, but people (myself included) shop with their eyes rather than their heads 😆

                                @moto glad you picked one up…it’s absolutely one of my favorite spring/summer shirts. The madras material is top notch

                                    @T4920 I definitely know what you mean, the studio pics of these and the red madras shirts seemed really over saturated didn’t they? The red looked almost orange to my eyes.
                                    At first I liked the pattern but not so much the colour so I did what you said and hunted down pics of the shirt from different retailers, where it seemed a little less bright. I was astonished when I opened the package how much darker it was compared to the IH pics.
                                    It really is beautiful and wearable all year, I can only recommend it if you are thinking of getting one? And a great price at the minute! Fingers crossed for more madras in SS25..

                                        @DeeDee85 I know this is an old thread, but I wanted your input on this fabric…

                                        I’m thinking of buying the 418 Blue / Black today, and wanted to hear from someone who owns a shirt made of similar fabric what it feels like. Does it drape, or is it a bit more ridged? What sort of hand does it have (soft or more course)?

                                        I’m probably not describing it very well, but I own a 386 5oz selvedge and while I like the shirt, it’s not the most comfortable (to me) for hot weather, partly because of the courser feeling hand (of that makes any sense).

                                        Thanks in advance, Brian

                                          @Brandrea I’ll do my best here to help as I have this shirt and one other in the 5oz madras. I love this fabric for warmer weather. I wouldn’t say it “drapes” necessarily but it has such a soft hand after a few washes. I almost think it feels like what nice cotton percale sheets feel like…kind of smooth and cool feeling. I even prefer it over my 357 dobby cloth for warmer weather even though it’s not quite as breathable. Take care with washing as you can get some shrink if you don’t wash cold/hang dry. I think you will love it. Hope this helps.
