@bluemantra I get personal preference is everything, but I think that size looks pretty ace on you!

Does this 18ozOD fade similarly to 21od? It looks like the 18oz denim has a little more slub to the texture. I'm asking this because I saw SelfEdge carries the 633 in 18oz OD.

Here is a photo of this shirt from @Jcaz6996 and also a pair of 21od from the hall of fades from Alex for comparison:

@Graham Thanks so much! I think I still prefer the 21oz

Does anyone know how this shirt (IHSH-293-OD) will be fading differently than the IHSH-362-BLK?

[Alex]

@eemmmiiee anything that we sell which is "Indigo Overdyed Black" is that specific indigo denim, that is then redyed black. The black will fade as will the indigo beneath it and you get bluey black fading as you can see in the photo above your question. The IHSH-362 is "superblack fades to grey" which means a sulphur rope dyed black warp that will fade with wear and washing and a reactive dyed 'superblack' weft which will not fade. This leads to high contrast grey fading

@Alex This is all very new to me, but I’m really interested in this brand and learning more about it. Thanks so much for sharing this information.

[Alex]

@eemmmiiee no worries.

You can see examples of faded 21oz OD jeans here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/content/hall-of-fades-21oz-overdyed-indigo

and 21oz SBG jeans here:

which should highlight the differences visually

I bought this shirt during the September 2024 Self Edge sale and it has become my favorite clothing purchase in years. Been wearing the heck out of it and finally starting to see some blue peaking through.

Is there any general census on machine wash vs hand wash?I did my first two washes hand washed in the bathtub, but it takes a lot of water and effort lol. The only thing I'm worried about with machine wash is wrinkles and creases.

[Alex]

Once the fabric softens up, machine washes are less risky, if you do machine wash, do 30C and low/no spin

[eemmmiiee]

@Alex That really helps a lot. I can clearly see the differences between each fabric type. So, what about Indigo/Black selvedge? Would it be similar to Indigo Overdyed Black? And for Black/Black, would it fade with no contrast between black and grey then?

I’m specifically referring to the IH-526J-142ib and IHJ-86-BLK.

[Alex]

@eemmmiiee the ib denim fades with high contrast blues, see a not very well faded pair here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/content/hall-of-fades-14oz-indigoblack#ap142ib-1

14oz bb denim fades to grey, but with a lower contrast than SBG

[eemmmiiee]

@Alex That makes sense. Thank you so much!
