IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

[T4920]

Looks good to me, and you'll always be able to undo the top few bottoms if you do need a little extra manoeuvrability.

I noticed the elbows starting to lighten up on mine already, texture becomes even more prominent as the blues fade and the blacks stay dark. Reminds me of a reptile's scales..

So glad I didn’t sleep on this one. Don’t necessarily need more indigo shirts, but the weight and texture and was too good to pass up. Fit is perfect, very close to the size chart.

@T4920 yeah boi!!!

@T4920 that's awesome yours is showing evo already!

@CosmoSix5 Just think of if you went larger - it would be a train wreck. It looks good now.

[CosmoSix5]

@indigostiff that crossed my mind. Chest may be better but the rest would be a mess.

@CosmoSix5 glad it worked out, and looks good. makes me wonder about those IH measurements though. we put so much stock into those being accurate.

[CosmoSix5]

@RubyRae my first glaring issue with them. Usually just a very small discrepancy if any. I think there was just variations in this particular shirt.

[T4920]

Honeycombs coming in real nice, and I've just noticed the bags starting to show it's true colours too

@T4920 man you’ve put some time in to this beauty and it’s paying off mate

[T4920]

@doubletee daily wear for a year is the plan! Not obsessing over it though, mixing up my wardrobe for work, but wearing this around the house and for a few full days a week.

Always resisted doing something like Indigo Invitational or Redline Rally, because I'd end up taking it to seriously, so this is a good compromise..

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@T4920 I’m with you on that you also don’t get to wear all the other good stuff I might do five days a week as usual on fade products

[T4920]

@Mindfulbiscuit sounds like a plan, this Sashiko is something special though isn't it!? Best fit and fabric I've ever had in a shirt. So glad I caved in and tried it on at the party ha....

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@T4920 for sure I don’t think you will need to pound this sashiko to get results

[CosmoSix5]

Tags are off. It's a keeper. Love it. Now just to stay the same weight lol

[Gavin666]

@americanathreads shoulders look spot on plus by going with large you have managed to avoid the dreaded long sleeved!

[CosmoSix5]

Wondering if anyone will notice if I just keep wearing this?

[jordanscollected]

@CosmoSix5 They won't. We all have spotlight syndrome naturally. You could wear it for a month straight and achieve "best dressed" every day, and if someone says something just give them the "Sashiko shrug".

[CosmoSix5]

@jordanscollected "the sashiko shrug" Classic!

@CosmoSix5 Nobody's mentioned it to me yet haha
