IHSH-350-IND - 10oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo
-
This close to fully checking out and purchasing this piece when I noticed that the option to upgrade the snaps was not available. I did see the 'upgrade buttons' option which made me question if the shirt had any buttons to begin with. Upon further examination, I noticed that the shirt did indeed have a button (at the neckline) while the rest were the usual snaps I'm accustomed to with the IH westerns.
Is this by design?
Thanks,

There’s not a lot of chatter on this so I’ll just say I got mine and it is a quite beautiful shirt! Lightweight with an ineffable feeling of old world quality to the fabric. Reminds me a bit of some of my favorite fabrics from mister freedom / sugar cane or vintage navy trousers. Could see layering it over a sweatshirt or turtleneck well into autumn.

@DeeDee85 I havent worn it a ton but so far its a slow fader, its aging more like one of my darker chambray shirts than a 12oz denim shirt for example. The blue is starting to pop out a little more with a couple washes.
This or the work shirt at their outlet price are a great deal. Its a versatile shirt, more like a midcentury workwear fabric that happens to look like denim.

@nytimes_gaiden that’s a great write up, thank you very much! I might give this a go then, I know the lighter weight shirts don’t seem to get much love but my 352 is my most worn IH shirt. A slow fader also but starting to come to life now. Would love to see a couple of progress pics if you get chance?

Anyone have pics of a worn/faded one?

Does anybody have any examples of how this piece fades? I can't seem to find a faded 350 anywhere.

Just picked one of these up last night at SESF. Beautiful shirt! Really excited to see how it breaks in and fades.
