I think they’re barely noticeable! It’ll blend into the rest of the aging of the shirt in no time.

Just don't wear it while painting

Had the exact same thought

Hahaha no no way!

@sabergirl thanks, the more I look at it the more I am feeling the same now. Thanks for the reassurance.

@Oaktavia Please find a suede brush for any future cleaning as it will be much gentler on your shirt. I would not recommend using anything coarse on any type of suede.

I don’t think it’s ruined and not implying so. There are better tools for the job though.

In a pinch, I've had decent luck using the back side of the placket to give a small spot a brush, especially for things like a water stain.

@Oaktavia i feel your paranoia man! It’s such a nice and expensive shirt. It’s funny how we love the patina we wear into our gear…but damn if it must be the “right” kind of patina haha. I feel this on the regs.

I sort of see it as a great motivator to push on to the next level of the fade progress of this shirt. We know ultimately our best pieces are the ones we’ve pushed so far we worry less and less about how we treat them and they just become effortlessly incredible.

Also…100% agree with Dennis on the suede brush. I had some blemishes on my split steer and used one of those. Gentle is best practice with spot removal on this type of gear.

@Mizmazzle @goosehd thanks guys, I appreciate the insight. I don't feel like it's ruined I just had a bit of panic this morning. My mind wanders quickly. Do you have a suede brush you prefer and could recommend?

Edit: haha @Mizmazzle I just reread your response and you're right on the money, gave me a chuckle.

[Mizmazzle]

I found this one on Amazon. Works great.

[goosehd]

@Mizmazzle Great shout and what I was trying to find a picture of!! Also, recommend investing in a suede eraser. Probably can find a combo pack from Amazon.

There are also many tutorials on YouTube on how to use them to prevent damage. As @Mizmazzle said, slow and gentle is the key to long term cleaning and care for suede.

[Oaktavia]

Is this one? It came in my Birkenstock kit.

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia yeah dude. That’s a suede brush for sure.

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia The square bit is the eraser.

[Oaktavia]

Cool, thanks fellas

@Mister_Brue i have to be reminded sometimes

@Oaktavia I have learned the hard way to send leather issues to the professionals - they’re expensive and time consuming though. Rago Bros in NJ is my go-to.

Any plans for a restock on this? If I’m a xxl in western shirts should I be looking at a xxl in the big buck?

[louisbosco]

shirt is looking great @Oaktavia nice to see the patina and wears on it after just a couple months!!

for sure. We just cleared all our leather from tannery to factory. Once I work out how many shirts will come from the leather at the factory, we will plan more with the tannery.

It's pretty much all I wear besides my 140IG. How is yours treating you?
