I really like mine

[madmonday]

some are still hanging around Self Edge B.

I'm trying to decide what color buttons I'm going to do on mine.

dark blue or a black . . . .

Barun SENY has xxl in stock it fits like a standard xxxl

[nameness]

@monday:

black . . . .

[madmonday]

ok so that means i should go with NAVY

haHaHAhaHahahHa, huh

will look tonight again & see if I can source some buttons worthy of this beauty.  For some reason i thought the buttons were too small for such a beefy shirt.

hope this doesn't turn into an epic fail. .  .

think i'm going to make this shirt my project to see how it would look with different buttons or something. . . .

Sounds like a good idea. What color and type were you thinking?

[madmonday]

going with some blackish buttons.

will put up a picture of them when i get a moment.

i tried to sew on one & it was abit of a challenge to say the least

think i need a thimble or some more calloused finger tips 

[madmonday]

so here is how she turned out:

will do a close-up of the buttons when i get a moment.  they go with the shirt perfectly.  shout to nameness for saying black buttons instead of blue

[barun]

that's a much bigger difference than I expected

[madmonday]

here are as close as i'm going to get:

[Seul]

Perfect. And good call, nameness: black > blue on this shirt!..

[madmonday]

i had these really cool cloth covered antique type buttons, i think i might put one or two on my ihsh 21.  when i get more time.

[Tomas]

well done, think i will follow suit..

[madmonday]

what up tomas.

glad i get a thumbs up on this project.  i'm happy with the way it turned out.  i won't talk shit about folks sewing anymore, this fabric was insane to try & sew the buttons on.

This is one of my favorite IH shirts  not sure why it doesn't get the love it deserves.

[Tomas]

@madmonday where did you get the buttons at? and did you have to use a leather needle? lol

[madmonday]

the buttons were sourced from an old cranky tailor that i love & she takes care of me.

i used a big a$$ needle that she gave me with the buttons . . . it was big fun

[posthealth]

Looks like a different shirt. Nice moves!

[madmonday]

think i'll wash again in super hot water & throw in the dryer to try to shrink some more . . .

Maybe I'm biased but this shirt looks better on my GF than me or Madmonday…
