SEXIH25-CPO - Self Edge x Iron Heart 19oz Denim CPO Shirt

[Northman]

I have been very happy with my purchase even though I originally wanted the OD.

@Northman right on dude, these photos are the first hints as to how this denim will fade. Nicely done.

@Chibs absolutely brilliant video! Well done!

@Molle thank you!

Morning walk time. The weather is finally here for this one. I’m excited to wear this quite a bit

I have only wore this as a sleep shirt. Nearly every night since late spring. Never wore it outside of the house. First wash happening now.

you sleep in this?

@JerkStore How else is one to fade multiple shirts at the same time

[Oaktavia]

@JerkStore I only sleep in it. I've never worn it out.

@Oaktavia Looks great! What are your thoughts on the denim now? and the new (direct) dye OD? I am finding it fading faster than the sulphur OD…which is a welcome surprise. Not sure how much of that is a function of the denim.

[Oaktavia]

@Boit Thanks! I absolutely love this denim. It’s so comfortable and heavy. I love the texture so much, that is what makes it cozy in my opinion. Cool to hear you find it to fade fast. I have not really put mine through the ringer yet. Would love to see photos of yours!

@Oaktavia have you had any dye transfer to sheets when sleeping in it?

[Oaktavia]

@Desperado213 Nope

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

I just assumed your sheets were denim….

[Oaktavia]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Of course they are. Denim rugs, dishwear, tablecloths, couch upholstery, even my denim Lay-Z-Boy.

@Boit Curious if you're noticing it fade significantly faster than the Sulphur dye method? I have the OD on ice for now and just brought out what is prob my favorite IH top, 293. Hands covered in dye by lunch today. I've been wearing the 888 direct OD for going on 9 months and hardly showing signs of wear so I was actually thinking the opposite. We'll see how things progress this season!

@catdad1 see my post here: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/916781

The sulphur OD bleeds a lot and appears much more inky black. Now I see my pairs side by side maybe the fade similarly (slow) but since the direct dye is less saturated they appear to fade faster? I did not notice any crocking from the direct dye…which is nice.

I’ve been mostly office working in these but labored in them over the past weekend. They now desperately need another wash now.

@Boit thanks for the heads up. I have been looking forward to seeing your photos.
