Self Edge X Iron Heart 13oz Broken Twill CPO
-
@Oaktavia This is a true black, not overdyed. The salesguy I spoke to said it would fade (implying sulphur dyed?), but he didnt seem 100% sure. I don't know how this denim compares to the 14oz broken twill - the 13 oz CPO is much stuffer/crispier than my IHJ-123-OD, but the difference is likely mostly due to the overdying vs the underlying denim.
I also love the grey W - that pushed me over the edge for this one.
-
@KongPrecision wow thanks for the information
-
Yeah these were definitely unexpected
-
@KongPrecision mind going a little deeper on how it fits? Compared to other CPO’s or UHF’s you might own? Did you size the same? How stiff.crispy is it feeling for a 13-oz. Thx
-
I tried on the indigo and it put a smile on my face. Classic Wrangler-style broke twill and lighter/brighter indigo. Super pretty in person. The fit seemed similar to my Wabash CPO.
-
@j3butch1 I went with my normal IH size for the black version - I'm almost always a M (with the occasional S or L sprinkled in depending on the model). I'd say this shirt fits pretty close to the middle of my size M CPOs. I took some quick measurements (inches):
Shoulder: 18.1
Chest: 21.5
Waist: 20.6
Length: 29.0
Sleeve: 26.0I didnt try on the indigo, so can't comment on sizing there.
It was initially crispier than I expected, but it's starting to soften after just a couple of wears.
-
Thanks for the measurements @KongPrecision ! Any chance you can also measure the hem opening?!
-
@sabergirl I just measured the opening at 20.6 (same as the waist). For avoidance of doubt, I used the IH method at the top of the side seam gussets.
-
Thank you so much @KongPrecision

@Phil_NYC wow! Another one before launch. Might I ask what size? And if able, the measurements? Would be very helpful for me if it is XL or XXL.
-
It’s an XL. Almost identical to my 292. About 23 in the chest, 37 in the sleeve (i always ask for the longest sleeves) and about 30.5 in length. Didn’t measure shoulders but feels just like my other XLs so probably around 19.
-
@Sunnergren they are already for sale in the stores. I have mine showing up today. I will post pictures when mail gets delivered. I ordered an xxl by the way. I tried it on in store a month ago when I was buying some jeans.
-
@Phil_NYC thank you! Well, I’m right in between. Have to decide if I want to layer or not.
-
@Sunnergren my advice is to always size up if in between. Give yourself a bit of room for shrinkage, layering, and to gain a little weight.
-
@jordanscollected thanks for the advice, if I decide to buy it will be my first CPO. I have prior only had the idea that it should be worn with only a T-shirt underneath. But if I size up I can probably fit a shirt as well for the colder periods.
Does anybody know if i can I expect any shrink in this 13oz broken twill?
-
Got my broken twill in black in today. Initial fit is pretty close to perfect. P2P is a hair tight but still fits very well.
Here are the measurements if interested.
Size - xxl
Shoulder - 20”
Length - 30.5”
P2P - 23.5”
Opening - 23”
Sleeve length - 27.25”
Sleeve opening - 4.9”I measure using the method shown on iron hearts website and not how self edge advises.
Here are a couple of pics as well. In one of them you can see how this will start to fade.
-
@Ral1121 What size shirting do you normally wear? with those numbers, I may size up from typical XL.
-
@JerkStore I am usually an xxl. My P2P that I usually shoot for is 24”. Everything else was good on this shirt except for the P2P. It is still very comfortable though for me.
