IHSH-292-IND - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo

Spooky floating CPO!!!!
Set up a home studio shoot with this seven year old 292 as a stand in for my competition 295-IB.
Love this thing though I’ve sized out of it. Got it the day my youngest daughter was born.

@GTPowers brillant!! May I ask...how soft had the denim become? Is is still crunchy?

[GTPowers]

@Mizmazzle

It’s tight so I don’t really have a great answer. When it was new….crunchy as Captain Crunch lovelessly leaving its mark on the top of your mouth.

@GTPowers ha!! Perfect description. Hurts so good!!

Are there any news about the restock ?

@H-P-U No further update sorry

@labrat any chance of a few more pics of your 292? Thinking of going with the brass snaps too when it re-stocks

Hey @DeeDee85 , I recently swapped out brass for copper because I got bored of it.

[DeeDee85]

@labrat I see, did the brass not dull off very much? I could see it bothering me eventually if it stayed really bright. Also, when you upgraded to the brass, did they change the male and the female parts or just the female? Sorry for all the questions

@DeeDee85 From the heavy duty snaps page. Does this answer your question?
PLEASE NOTE: Once upgraded, shirts are non-returnable. In addition, we only replace the snap face and socket, not the male stud and post.

@CosmoSix5 thank you, think that’s just made my mind up for me.. the ocd weirdo in me would want the male and the female parts to match so copper it is

@DeeDee85 Okay, so the brass snaps are clear-coated, but with wear, the clear coat will rub off and develop a patina (I posted some photos somewhere). I wasn’t too crazy about the size of them either; they looked a bit out of place on this jacket.

As for swapping the female side, no, but it’s not noticeable. The same would apply when upgrading to good art. Personally, I don’t think it’s a big deal.

Hope this helps!

@labrat it really does, thank you very much!
