    @Anesthetist said in IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo:

    One thing I’ve noticed that I’m not fond of both sleeves have a very pronounced fold mark running down them. Anybody else’s?

    That's what I was referring to in my post somewhere above, that they were fading on the hanger. Many of the shirts had it, probably from rubbing during transport.

      @Anesthetist my left sleeve has a major fold / crease in it as well. As if it was folded then stitched on the cuff? right sleeve isn't as noticeable.

        @Anesthetist mine has fold marks on the sleeves as well, though not as pronounced as yours. I'm reasonably confident they will become less noticeable with wear and wash, so I don't really mind them. I've had similar vertical fades after washing my denim but they've disappeared as well. It's all part of the journey for me

            @Germinal For sure. All else aside, I have no issue with being required to pay for my return shipping, especially in cases where a "free shipping" threshold was triggered on the part of the retailer.

            @goosehd I mean, we have to start somewhere and I just picked 5% as it seemed at least somewhat reasonable. If the idea is they lose X on every sale, then surely inflating the price X is taken from would be better than simply basing it on retail. But sure, I would agree that the overhead costs generally are probably much higher than we'd think.

            Being completely honest, sometimes I wonder how certain outfits can even stay in business maintaining a brick and mortar....but that's a much larger conversation around costs and margins.

                @tody In my excitement to see pics, I must’ve missed that! It doesn’t really irritate me, I know it will settle down, but I was a little surprised

                  @Anesthetist , i see some marks on mine, right sleeve only. Could be from having them folded in a suitcase for a coupe of days. Don't mind them, think they will disappear over time.1000027205.jpg 1000027204.jpg

                    @Twistlock I’m looking at the stacking on your sleeve. Do you think this fabric would produce some
                    Deep stacks?

                      Just got these bad boys in hand and wow do they feel great. Such a wicked shirt, excited to see how these things transform over time. I didn't want to take it off, but my trusty CPO Sashiko calls....

                        So, my tightest(while still comfortable) IH shirt is IHSH 295ib with a chest of exactly 24". The XXX 397 is listed at 24.6" what's the consensus? Impossible to size up due to availability. I'll be ordering from a USA retailer so only a slight return hassle. Looks good on paper... Thoughts? Buy or pass? Thanks!

                            I suspect, that given the popularity, they’ll bring this back… maybe even in a CPO or Western cut. Then again, it may take 5 years, or it may never happen! Better to go for it, return for some credit (and an excuse to buy the next thing you fall in love with)

                                  @steelworker oh yeah!! Spot on!! Looks like you have a touch of sleeve room to account for stacking. Length and shoulders on point!! Congrats.

                                    Hey, I’m new to the iron heart family and this was the first piece I bought from the brand. I came into self edge looking to get into the UHF and found this in the boxes they didn’t even unpack yet. I put it on and couldn’t put it back. I’m 5/11, 180lbs picked up an XL for a looser overshirt feel

                                          I got the XL earlier, right before I had to pop out for an art class. Didn’t get to try it on but at first glance I was like “hm maybe the XXL will be the way?” I’ll probably wait til the latter arrives tomorrow so I can try them both on to compare, but the fabric itself is awesome feeling. Hefty and duck-like, but a little softer. The fade potential once it’s in hand seems a lot more obvious.
