@NickD yes, dainite on a pair of Tricker's boot from Rivet and Hide.

I walk roughly 15-20k steps a day.

I don't understand why people say 'dad jokes'. We were already making jokes like that when we were 10.

[northsouthdenimguy]

They’re not dad jokes. They’re evolutionary proof that shame dies before we do

[Jett129]

@endo Bescause in their current incarnation they’re used by Dads to deliberately annoy their children. You can tell how well the joke did by the resulting groaning and eye rolling. Why can’t you play cards in the Jungle?…Too many Cheetahs! Sometimes they also contain a clever play on words. What did the ocean say to the beach?…Nothing,It just Waved. Probably more of an answer than you bargained for.

Has anyone here worn through their collars? How have y’all fixed it?

[Matt]

You should totally send those in to IHUK. @JoshC would poop himself.

[NickD]

@deadendpro they can be unstitched and flipped around, putting the wear on the underside where you can’t see it.

Hey,

I'm looking for a comfy and easy to wear denim jacket that fades comparatively fast for this summer. I'm happy for any suggestions :).

[AdamJ]

@RobeOfTheMagi 526J-SLB is comfy and easy to wear. Fades comparatively fast is sort of down to how much you wear it iMO!

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@AdamJ Thanks Adam! Any luck the slubby is going to drop before summer?

[AdamJ]

@RobeOfTheMagi No, sorry, I should've checked that before making the recommendation! Depending on what size you are, Rivet and Hide have a good size range currently

Hello all, had a question regard the differences between the Wabash 12oz Western shirt indigo IHSH-62-IND and the 8.5oz Herringbone Steipe Western -IND IHSH-424-IND.
These shirt both look identical on the site.
Are they basically the same shirt/material but the only difference is the weight or are they also different fabrics .
Trying to decide if I should wait for the 12oz to be restocked or get the 8.5 now.
Any insight or preferences would be greatly appreciated .

As always, thanks in advance,

Jerry3times

Completely different fabric, the lighter one is herringbone. The other is a twill that feels similar to denim.

@Jerry3times your question has been moved here.

@Jerry3times

Wabash => Bleached Dots
424 => Interwoven Stripe

The twill and the herringbone have different fade behavier.

[Jerry3times]

@sabergirl thank you so much ! So different, lighter fabric but basically the same color and look?

[Jerry3times]

@Aetas thank you for the reply! So does that mean with the interwoven fabric , the shirt retains an almost newer look longer than the bleached? I’m assuming it is a much softer garment as well.

[Jerry3times]

@goosehd thank you

@Jerry3times

To the untrained eye, they look the same

I’m wearing the 8.5 herringbone today since I’m out on construction sites and it’s in the mid 70s and sunny, I personally would be burning up in the heavier Wabash. I like having both because it gives me options depending on the weather.

@Jerry3times I haven’t handled the fabric of the 424 in person. But referring to the pictures @Nick provided in the thread, they both evolve beautiful and fast.
This is what Adam Welch wrote about:
“The complexity of the weave, the cut, the luxuriously light yet impervious fabric of the 424, and the fabulous fade potential make this a competitive complement to the 12oz Wabash. Any conscious connoisseur would undeniably need both.”

To dig deeper, look at this faded Wabash or this indigo Herringbone.
