IHSH-362-BLK - 16oz Non-Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Superblack (Fades to Grey)

Damn, one of the keys to minimize the funky lines and marbling (IME) is to soak it prior to washing + inside out, drip dry (fluff dry as needed). I've only done once but so far so good, and this will be the season of heavy wear. This fabric is insanely unique and rigid which apparently makes it vulnerable to crazy swirls, lines, and marble. My goal is to hopefully just get honest wear and tear. Embrace to mishaps, there's really nothing quite like this CPO.

@neil_kman that didn't go bad at all bro! Back in the days when they had awesome fades in work shirts they didn't care about turning inside out and all the other mumbo jumbo. Wash it however you want to and embrace the badassness of how that shirt is looking! No fades are the same and don't worry about manufacturering how fades are supposed to look. Keep wearing it hard bro!

I gotta say really feeling the support gentlemen thanks, I’ll wear the shirt lots as the weather cools, wash it plenty and see where I end up. Cheers

Progress coming along slowly but surely. Love this CPO it’s so damn tough!

This would be my ultimate CPO, I reckon I’d wear it to death so I’ve got no idea how I missed it.
These things happen
Congrats to those who were astute enough to grab one. -
Man yeah this shacket looks perfect and exactly what I'm looking for for the Bike : a black CPO that is rugged enough to possibly protect if I go down, molds and fades like a mofo, and looks badass !!

@sophisto000 reached out regarding a recent WTB post and offered up this well loved and really well faded CPO (Tagged XL). Gently soaked inside out in warm water and some dr. brommers and a TON of dye and starch came out. Definitely has some of the marbling others have mentioned, but alas, that's kinda the wabi-sabi you take with the SBG.
Anyways, here the bad boy is in the daylight, not fluorescents...

My little brother @FormulaPfaff has the IHSH-08SS with is a very similar not fade version of this 16oz denim. It's an absolute beast, so when I had the opportunity, I knew I needed to jump on this one!

This is definetely one of the pieces I regret selling the most. Was in my early IH days when I did not know what a gem this is
