IHSH-208-IND - Indigo Kersey Western Shirt

[AdamJ]

@Bobcat-Sig There is a new run of this shirt in production, but won't be here 'till next year.

As a general rule, yes - the westerns are a slimmer fit than the work shirt. However in my experience it is not always the case that it warrants an exact size up. I would measure your best fitting shirt (be it IH or otherwise) and do a quick comparison just to be sure!

I am super stoked! I was down at SE PDX for boot things, which I'll cover in another thread, and lo and behold, not only did they have this shirt in stock, they had one in a tag L. My oh my, is this fabric cool! Because I'm a total neophyte to this whole sphere, many of these non-denim fabrics are new to me. Kersey is no different. I'd never had it in hand, and despite best efforts, the shirt is so much more striking in person. And it's so soft!!

All of this, I'm sure you all know, but I had to share my enthusiasm.

@Bobcat-Sig Nice pick up man! I got my first kersey this year too, love it to pieces.

@Bobcat-Sig excited for you man! Starting off the IH journey with a bang!

[Bobcat Sig]

@SKT heh, yah, for sure. This is my fifth IH shirt. A few years ago, I first dipped my toe into the UHF arena and acquired another not long after. Last year, I picked up a lighterweight flannel and a black denim shirt. The hook sank deep.

Now, it's all about checking out the different fabrics, which I'm finding quite interesting.

@Bobcat-Sig oh man I was confused by another post I read today…well you added a stellar shirt to the stable!

[Bobcat Sig]

@SKT All good. I'm a bit late to the IH forums, not finding this place until I was a few years into my UHF and boot ownership. I also lurked for a bit as I wasn't sure of the unique decorum found here.

@Bobcat-Sig Oh, you won’t regret this one. Perfect that you could try it for size too. It only gets softer, though maybe less of a deep blue…

just to be sure i asked the retailer to measure it and it seems to be way smaller than the size chart

@Bobcat-Sig It's a really fun piece. I like to layer mine under a western, particularly my IHSH-295ib. Photo below after I first snagged it. Completely ripped off Bryan Szabo for the look. Dude is a genius

@kojimastreets Double blue double western. I like it. Nice, man. The Kersey, with its soft hand and easy drap certainly lends itself to a great layer. That's a great idea.
