IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
-
Got mine today, I like it 100% more than the selfedge 19oz . This is much softer and more like a thick sheet, where the other was like a rug. I'm conflicted on keeping it though as it's slightly too big(I sized up to an xl). I'll try it on with a UHF later, but being so soft has me wondering if I'll even lose any sleeve length with creasing.
Possible to get more shrink out of???
-
@Denimminer You will not be able to get any more shrink out of this. Overdyed items are handled in such a way that eliminates any potential shrinkage.
Edit: Regarding sizing. I don't think that it looks bad and would work great for most individuals intended purpose of a shacket (shirt/jacket).
-
@Denimminer those sleeves will crease up for sure.
-
@Denimminer i’d been thinking about grabbing an XL, but I’ve been wearing my large almost everyday the last week and it feels perfect now.
-
@Denimminer Man, I hope mine fits that good when I get it!
You’re description of the way it wears is exactly what I’m hoping for too!
-
Just got notification that it’s been delivered:) it took 4.5 days to get from London to regional NSW, that’s madness.
Just coming into the warmer weather here so might be a few months before it gets some wear -

@landownunder im waiting for mine to get to melbourne. I have been refreshing the tracking page non stop now as i can see it was cleared by customs 2 days ago! So where is it??
-
This has been the hardest one to pass. Originally this was the shirt that sparked my interest in IH.
I got the self edge indigo CPO and the lefty OD. Just can't justify this when owning a western CPO and a OD type 3. I know someone gonna try to be an enabler.
Waiting for different shirts to pop up for variety now.
But maybe in a few years! -
@cyclops you won’t be disappointed, as others have said previously the softness straight out of the bag is really something!
I feel the fit is really good as well! Was planning on just wearing with a T but was going to see if I could sneak a UHF underneath that I don’t yet own ha! -
First day out in the wild. Fits perfect

Got my hands on my XL. Thanks to the IH team for sorting one with good measurements for me. Even with similar or even slightly larger measurements than my 292, this one feels slimmer. Don’t have much room for layering other than a t shirt or thinner henley, but in this run that’s probably the way to go rather than trying XXL which would probably be too large in the shoulder and sleeve. What a great shirt. Can’t wait to put some wear into this.

@Brandrea thanks man! You’ll love it - hopefully the fit works for you.

@americanathreads Fit looks spot on! Can’t wait for mine to arrive!
You are going to love it, brother! I have owned the Large for a couple of years, and I was able to snag an XL this year so it can serve double duty as a light shirt jacket. Both fit really great...it is my favorite IH piece (and that is really saying something)!
-
@SaddleSC That’s fantastic to hear!
I’m a touch nervous about the size I chose, but going by the measurements it should work out alright. I went with my regular UHF size which is XXL. The XXXL looked way too large in the shoulders.
-
Wow.
This thing is so good and so different than my 178. I’m pretty sure I know what I’m wearing tomorrow….
