Screw bills, this is a once in a lifetime shirt!  If xl was even close to fitting me then I would snatch one up but unfortunately I'm a big guy.

Pete, looking solid man!

Giles, can you sew two of them together for me?

Simon, super cute picture

sorry for the weird lighting, quick fit pic.

[madmonday]

good cops & nice fits.

this is a really unique shirt. that indigo dye is something else.

[shoque]

perfect fit corporalclegg, this really is an amazing shirt.

[DrPat]

I'm looking forward to more fit pics of this one.

How much indigo transfer has occurred?

[Beatle]

I promise a shitload of pics in 4 weeks…

Anyone with a red want to post some pics?  On the fence here and need a nudge.

[barun]

on the fence?  you've got to go for this one if you can.  one of a kind shirt probably unlikely to ever have anything similar from any brand…

[madmonday]

thAt is a pretty good nudge B,  in top five nudges i've seen on the forum 

makes me almost want to get the shirt & i wasn't even lookin'

[barun]

It comes strictly from loving this thing.  Probably my favorite other than the 08

Yeah man, it's the cat's ass for sure.

[Mr Plow]

This shirt's unreal, really tempted, quick question though, does the colour bleed quite a bit? Not a dealbreaker for me, just curious.

[7tacos]

I have an OD flannel and it dosen't bleed.  Not sure about these but fuck it since I wear black 90% of the time anyways.

[madmonday]

that bit of info is very good to have.  i always foolishly assumed if an item is dyed it will bleed.

who freckin' knew

[DrPat]

I'm also interested in knowing how much bleeding occurs.

The od chambray transferred color only on the first few wears. I would assume this shirt has more because of the nature of indigo.

[7tacos]

Yeah, probably little to none.  Certainly after alot of wear.  My OD type III never transfered that I noticed either but I also never wore with a white shirt.  Black tees are primary for me all the time.

[madmonday]

hey dr.p,

we need an indepth write up from you on one of these shirts.

i am actually looking forward to the tripleworks indigo dyed shirt with the red ventalition holes we got a peek at a few weeks back during the japan trip.  think that will be my one indigo dyed shirt. . .

[7tacos]

my suspicion: after the first wash you could wear whatever you want.  If in doubt, wear black.  I wear it anyways because I'm always fucking up my shirts (i dont get my ass back and head down when i eat, because i'm too ADD and distracted, like my cat).

[DrPat]

I was considering getting this one but I really don't need another flannel at the moment and wanted a bit more data on how they will wear over time.  I don't remember seeing anything similar from any brand.  But I guess not knowing is half the fun….
