Iron Heart X Simmons Bilt Horsehide Western Shirt - The Pale Rider - Natural
-
Here are some wearing pictures, I don't think I've ever shown any here before (of the shirt in its worn-in state), only flat lays...

You are living your best life @matt_rost ! Love it!

Shit, just realised this could be happening soon?
Having back-tracked up, looks like ETA mid April? -
The PR, cloaked by RRL -

@indigostiff looking great, i’d be sweating bullets on the plane with all those layers!!!
-
Back at Duke!
-
According to my wear records, I've worn the shirt for 187 days over the past 10 months (minus the very hot summer months). The leather has noticeably softened again in the last four weeks.

Pale rider tea at church with RRL…

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot When are you sending that to me for some 17MM Good Art snaps?
-
@Graham ha! Still cycling everyday with Winona at the moment, but that sounds like the perfect summer project, dude! Question will be how much bling???

Man, every time I see an update on this topic I’m thinking/hoping it will be an update on delivery. Instead, it’s just photos of how great everyone looks in these shirts and I’m not one of them!

@deanclean If you insist I can cheer you up with a photo of how not so great I look in this shirt, which is now slightly too small for me in the shoulders and p2p and had an unfortunate encounter with a black leather vest that left it zebra-fied

@deanclean that's the way of the road 'round these parts!

@deanclean it was a bit large when I got it around 3 years ago. Inspired by some rash experiments posted by someone else on the forum I gave it a quick cold soak. This was tightening things up a bit. Over the last years I gained a bit of weight and spend too much time swimming and on the rowing machine (in other words I got fat)... The zebra thing happened when briefly wearing a black Ondura leather vest.

@Tobi looks good to me! I’ll take it off your hands.

Honest: its a great shirt and if it would fit better (the photo is a bit exaggerated) I would wear it much more. If I was to improve anything I would choose a softer leather (but I think this is already happening), and add CPO style handwarmer pockets. Ah one thing to consider: the shirt flares a bit and looks a bit strange (to me) if worn open. Unlike most IH CPO's and jackets. See some pictures further up in the thread.. something to consider if you plan on wearing it almost always open (like a Type III say)...
