what kind of hat is this? (John Dutton as a kid in 1883)

[neph93]

@endo Probably one of these. The OG cowboy hat.

The creases that define the cowboy hat now would develop through wear as people would use thumb and forefinger on the crown to remove the hat. Later that was put in pre-market to give us what we have today.

@neph93 thanks, very interesting

A question for @ShopatIronHeart - do you stack these buttons?

My whipcord shorts have the top button sewn on, and I'd like to know if these could be swapped out.

You guys know about this website?

@Travis2375 yeah, it’s not legit and we have flagged it multiple times, but sadly no action has yet been taken by the relevant authority

Will there be any BB 18+ oz bottoms (888 or SE 633) being released in the next year?

We have those in stock, yes....

@sophisto000 21oz SBG will be restocked this year, if that’s what you mean

[sophisto000]

@Alex Hi Alex, I remember the SBG 888s release for Aug., but was wondering if any double sulfur dyed (warp & weft) would be coming out as well, since that fabric has piqued my interest since it came into my awareness. Thanks!

I bought this shirt from eBay. Its a IHSH-330-ODG 9oz Raised Whipcord.

On the ebay photos it didn't look that bad and thought it just needed a good iron, but in hand it has noticeable white crease marks. It looks likes its been washed and left at the bottom of the washing pile. Its a shame as it's a nice shirt and a great fit for me.

Does anyone know if I was to dye it at home it would cover these marks?
Is there a colour that would work best over green?

I've never dyed any clothing before so have no idea what I'm doing, but I read somewhere its relatively easy with a Dylon pod in the washing machine.

Any advice appreciated!

@ironmind I would just wear it often and wash seldom. The creases will fade with time.

[endo]

@ironmind you can easily overdye it with some DIY machine fabric dye and they should not be visible anymore. Don't know where you're located but e.g. Dylon should be available in most places. Get the shirt fully soaked in water before.

@Travis2375 they've got a lot of shirts I'm waiting for lol. They've even used IH own photos. How is this not closed immediately. Crazy!

Looks like they listened @CosmoSix5

"Hmmm… can't reach this page
It looks like the webpage at https://www.ironheartdenim.com/ might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address."

@endo Thanks, I have ordered a Dylon Olive Green, and will see what happens

[EdH]

@NickD Looks like its back up - at least that fraudulent site is now working for me...
