IHSH-398-WHT - 11oz Corduroy Western Shirt - Off White

[Karol]

It’s ready for a first wash. I really wanted to push this shirt a bit to see how it might look a little dirty. And I really like how the indigo got everywhere.

@Karol

Appreciate sharing, that looks great and provides plenty of incentive to NOT baby my shirt now too

@Karol those cuffs look sick!!

[Karol]

@Graham Thanks mate! Its like honeycombs on the cuffs
Its surprisingly hard to get dirty for a such a shirt.

@Karol What exactly did you wear over this for the indigo run off?

[Karol]

@DWade I think that most of it comes from cuffs rubbing the jeans while walking, mainly my IH-555-XHS, IH-777S-21 (I'm yet to wash them), IH-888-XHSib (washed once) and IH-888S-21 (that last one is a old pair washed so many times that it probably did little difference).
Otherwise I usually had one of the CPOs on top of it - IHSH-293-OD, IHSH-362-BLK, IHSH-409-IB

[DWade]

@Karol gotcha

[Karol]

It went to the washing machine. Temperature as on tag. I will report when it’s dry.
Here is the last look.

[Karol]

Reporting back. I will not worry about it anymore

And now some photos in full sun

@Karol Came out looking GREAT. My eyes aren’t the best but looks like most of the original indigo washed out, leaving behind a hint of blue/greyish color along a few seems.

[Karol]

@DWade Thanks!
I think Im just a bad photographer, I can't give this shirt justice.
The ''blues'' seem to be just the double layer of fabric. It's one of the reasons why I took the ones in full sun.
There is a tiny trace of indigo, in few places, on the inside hem, but when I just look at the shirt, I can't see any blue.

@Karol It’s a beauty indeed, not too many days/weeks left here in Western Canada to wear mine, temperature is noticeably changing. Will aim to do the same as yourself with before/after wash/dry pics when the time comes.

Thankyou again for sharing, certainly have some confidence now in wearing it freely and then the wash process
