IHSH-454-BRN - 11oz Military Serge Western Shirt - Brown
-
The is perhaps the most beautiful shirt I have ever seen. Can’t wait!!
-
With the three FW26 shirts that are released or being released thus far all having what appears to be atypical western shirt dimensions and more typical of work shirts, my bad in misinterpreting this along with the comment on regrading the sample resizing / tweaking to be more than it was literally noted. Thank you @alex for kindly setting me straight in that these recent shirt releases are just the normal of some shirts running atypical from the typical dimensions and not a new normal.

@Alex
would you expect this serge version to become soft ?
had a serge western shirt a few years ago but that was 13 oz when I remember correctly . -
Well, I ordered a large and asked the crew about a trying to find one closer to my ideal. If it doesn’t work, I will be sad. But, I thought about this a bit last night, and have some thoughts.
Over the last 7 years or so, Iron Heart has become such an important part of my life and my identity. I don’t ever have to decide what outfit to wear, just what combination! That’s a little bit of an exaggeration, but basically true. I am pretty much always wearing an IH western shirt (and pants, and jacket). As someone who is pretty awkward, lacking confidence, and a more than healthy dash of self loathing, these clothes provide a little bit of comfort and confidence. And I don’t flaunt it. It’s purely a ‘for me’ thing. I don’t even like people to know the details about my wardrobe. I get self conscious about it. I am financially comfortable, but not a wealthy person, and the amount I spend on these clothes is straight up unreasonable. But it is totally worth it to me. Quality matters to me. And maybe its because it gives me a stronger barrier from the world, but I am so much more comfortable in think heavy clothes. Anyway, blah blah blah… my point is… I am privileged to have so many great fitting IH western shirts, and if these proportions are the ‘new’ norm, or back to the old norm, or whatever, I am sure they are perfect for plenty of people. And if those folks are able to get a shirt that brings them even a fraction of what these things bring me, then hell yes, get it! Bodies are different. Everyone should have the opportunity to experience whatever these clothes might bring to their lives. Cause it’s not insignificant. It’s powerful shit! And I’ve already got a lifetime supply… At least until I inevitably gain a significant bit of weight
. At which point, maybe these proportions will be perfect for me again!Anyway, rant over. I appreciate you guys.

@Giles lol I wasn’t going to say anything, but as someone who has had to “flip up” the cuffs as these western shirts for almost 2 decades (and it’s not like I have short arms), I’m all for how these came out
