SEXIH25-CPO - Self Edge x Iron Heart 19oz Denim CPO Shirt
-
wooo! copped the OD and the Indigo. was feelin' fancy!
-
Finally arrived and love it! Think I prefer the extra panels on the XXXL so that’s an added bonus.
Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.
-
Wash 1 complete. Slight pops showing on the edges. A lot softer.
-
@1WayTrip I wasn’t overly happy at first glance with the extra panels until I put it on. Easily my most favourite IH piece to date, Such a beast.
Nice score -
-
@cyclops I think bigger sizes of some runs had different panel layouts based on available fabric cuts.
-
-
@cyclops they put an extra vertical strip either side under the arm pits. Makes it even more heavy duty.

@jmp777 wow. Got my CPO today and it is another level. This feels solid and substantial and closer to a jacket then a shirt. But love it. I do have this overdyed denim in the type 2 jacket, 301 jeans and now this. Cant wait to wear it in! Great that SE were able to find me one with larger shoulders too. Super pumped!
Similar to my 293, but different in many ways! It will be interesting rotating between the two
-
@cyclops nice pick up mate.
How did the sizing go?
I could have nearly gone 2 sizes up instead of just the 1 but still consider it my most favourite IH piece yet.“Here, from the king's mountain view
Here, from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan, I do
On treasures and flesh, never few”

Hi all, I’m struggling with the sizing on this. For reference I am 6ft 41.5 inch chest athletic build. I would say my normal IH size is XL. Thinking I should size up? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Ordering from Australia so gotta nail it. Thanks

@Steven-Ear-Ring take your best fitting shirt and run a tape measure over it. Then compare those dimensions to the ones you see on the product page.
Worth noting Self Edge measure differently to Iron Heart, so checkout the "How We Measure" tab on their product page.
I would forget your weight/height entirely and follow the returned by measuring. I am sure the SE staff would happily assist in finding specific dimensions for you to meet your requirements too

@Steven-Ear-Ring hey mate I’m an Aussie too so I know how important it is to get it right.
I’m normally a XXL with regular IH but the od versions shrink the garment down so I went up one size.Best asking Self Edge mate. I’ve found Kiya to be pretty responsive and helpful via email, especially considering the time differences.
-
@Rustygate37 cheers for the advice!
-
My normal XXXL fits well but is a little snug on the forearms. Not bad enough to bug me though.
-
@Rustygate37 the sizing is good! I went with XXL, whereas my 293 is an XL. Its slightly more roomier but still has the fitted look. My key area with IH is having wide enough shoulders and they were able to find me one which is good! The sleeve opening is much wider than the 293 though
And like the 293 once i break it in a bit more it will soften and fit nicely i think....i do feel a bit guilty for buying similar CPO but ah well, you live once
-
@cyclops Hell yeah! I put mine on last night and god I can't wait for the Fall. Such an amazing piece.
-
Initially i thought this was a bit more boxy than the 293 as its pretty thick, but now im wearing it in its starting to drape very nicely and settling down. So good!!
-
My indigo 19oz is tough. It's softened quite a bit in a year but the fabric retains its ruggedness. I like it, but the only problem is that it does tend to rub the elbow crease. My 293 doesn't do that at all. Different denim different feel even though the armholes are about the same size.
-
Spent the last few weeks breaking in the 19oz indigo CPO. It’s heavy, coarse, scratchy, and really slubby. Probably my most favorite thing in the world. Been about 85 here in Oregon, so it’s been a struggle.
