IHSB-BIGBUCK-BLK - Black Deerskin Western Shirt - The Big Buck

Good news and bad news for me on this guy -

Good news, I got the thing just before a major snow storm and it fits perfect! I've been wanting one of these in Black for so long, and super stoked I was able to get one! (I'm terrible at modeling lol)

The bad news though, (and I'm hoping other forum members might have a solution) I have a hole on the breast plate in between the front pocket and stitching for the shoulder yokes. I know these pieces can have scaring, but this one you can see the light come right through the hole.

Does anyone have any solutions to mend this? I'm just nervous on the placement of the hole that it will enlarge over time because of the placement. I probably will have to be careful on cleaning as well to avoid.

Any solutions on the fix are welcome if you have the same issue that I have, just don't want to make the problem worse and fix ahead of time.

Mine had a little pockmark like this smack in the middle of the bicep. The first owner had a coin-sized piece of deerskin sewn on the inside to patch it. With the repair I wouldn’t expect anything else will happen to it. The whole thing is very noticeable and I probably would have been a little disappointed with the hole if I had bought it new. Wabi sabi!

@TheChef17 I also think that a patch sewn onto the inside of the shirt should stabilize the area... If you can live with the look and if it makes you feel better... I had something like that in the armpit area of ​​my shirt. I left it as is, and it hasn't gotten any worse in two years.

@TheChef17 Hi, I will shortly email yourself so please keep an eye out in your inbox

@TheChef17 That's unfortunate. I was reading this thread to see if the quality got any better since I had ordered and returned one back in 2023. It had some stitching issues. See photos. That's a brand new one I had just received, but sent it back.

[TheChef17]

@nixage Dang brotha, I'm sorry to hear that! Hopefully they can stitch that one back to new though

[TheChef17]

@matt_rost I think so too, just gotta look into getting a piece for the hole, but thanks for the info!

[TheChef17]

@sabergirl fingers crossed! it def will be personalize for sure after

[gusg]

Anyone recommend or discourage use of protectant on these? I was planning to let it go without but thought of it today

[AdamJ]

@gusg you should be fine without to be honest. Won't be an issue if it gets wet

[gusg]

@AdamJ thanks! That’s what I hoped
