      I used to keep track using the “extinct” section of the website. Now it’s either from memory, or I search the forum to find it.

        @steve4861 I don’t keep track and I can’t remember them…I look them up when/if I need to.

        Same as wears and washes. If it’s dirty, it gets washed.

        Different strokes for different folks.

          @steve4861 I don't keep records of any of my shirts,but records of all my jean's wears. I have a spreadsheet. I don't tally the washes,but I could guestimate if I had to.

            For those of you with a lot of Iron heart pieces, how do you remember the model numbers of each item?
            I presume you write it on the item somewhere like on the tag with permanent marker.
            Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated from your experience.

              Hi Everyone, I am new to Selvedge and to this fashion in general.. I feel like I have found my people but I have not had the best interactions from clothing stores on simple questions and information. I am hoping this group can help... is there a guru, site, or person I can reach out to for more info on my journey.. FYI my first purchases were the IHSH-442-SAX - SAX BLUE & IHSH-442-ORA...

                @C2C perhaps you can expand on what you are searching for?

                    Yes, I have a question.
                    How many CPO’s are considered too many?

                      @Rustygate37 1 more than you currently own. Same answer after each new one.

                        So 4 are too many?
                        Damn, I was hoping it would be something like 8

                          How many do I need? How many should I have? How many is too many? Answer is always N+1 when N = what you currently own.

                                  @cyclops 17oz duck brown, 16oz indigo selvedge and 19oz OD. I still don’t have a bb fade to grey as black is my favourite colour of choice.
                                  I definitely want a SelfEdge black moleskin if it ever gets a re-stock and the after receiving the dobby mechanic shirt I now kinda want the CPO version.
