IHSB-PR-NAT - Iron Heart x Simmons Bilt Horsehide Western Shirt - The Pale Rider - Natural

[louisbosco]

Wonder if this is fixable or beyond repair before I bring my shirt halfway round the world..

[Alex]

@louisbosco Steve says bring it

[IH-GARY]

Maybe glue leather washers either side?

[louisbosco]

@Alex sounds good

[IH-GARY]

@louisbosco just seen this on the Long John denim blog. Not quite your issue, but an inner selvedge patch could be cool!

[louisbosco]

@IH-GARY interesting. We’ll see what the crew can do

Incoming! My first grailed purchase. And my fw26 fund is eviscerated! ️

@CosmoSix5 Congrats Epic find.

[Davids_denim]

@CosmoSix5 woah, grail find indeed

[CosmoSix5]

So, the seller says the jacket is a few years old with tags still attached. Looks as if the oxygen has began the patina process in the photos. Is there any moisturizer I should have on hand? I have a few ATM but I don't want to mess with the color. Bick 4 is normally my go to when I do t want the color to be effected.

[Giles]

Anything you use will darken the hide. But maybe try a bit inside the pockets or on the reverse side of the collar to see how it looks.....

[Giles]

Have you received it yet?

I'd be a tad worried about this:

You may need to use some sort or moisteriser/conditioner on it anywat to merge the colours....

[CosmoSix5]

@Giles have not. I sent him a question about it before shipping. Here's another angle from the listing

It’s strange to me that he’d wear it for years with the tags still attached, but I don’t dare tell a man how to drink his whisky.
