Iron Heart X Simmons Bilt Horsehide Western Shirt - The Pale Rider - Natural
-
@FlavourFade the shoulders look exactly right to me. I think it’s a great fit all around. That thing is going to evo like crazy. I’m a pale ass red head and I rock the Bareback jacket in this leather. Love it!!
-
Natural leather is so awkward in the beginning, feels like you're walking around wearing a giant f'n band-aid. That said, stick with it like everybody's said and the eventual character it takes on will be well worth the effort.
-
@FlavourFade hope you change your mind I think it looks great
I never hardly button mine up always wear it undone .. give that a try.
Also a bit of natural sunlight

@FlavourFade As others have said, give it time to settle. It fits. Besides, your right elbow gives hints of a scrotal spin which you shall not soon forget...
-
@FlavourFade I would bet that when you wear that out,you will receive more comments than you’ve ever gotten for an article of clothing, and they’re all going to be in the nature of…How sick that shirt looks on you. I think you might even change some people’s impression of you. Maybe that’s what’s troubling you?
-
@FlavourFade it looks great. I hear you on the shoulders. I had the same thing but it passes.
-
Thanks a lot guys! I think it's a great shirt and you are all right. I will think it through and ask my girlfriend what she thinks about it since it is really expensive. Also I am waiting for the bill of my dogs unexpected eye surgery and see how empty the "fun wallet" is after that
-
@FlavourFade Hopefully the dog is allright mate! The shirt looks great on you for sure.
-
Yeah she is @Heavy_blue , got some stuff in her eye and will be okay but on weekends the emergency rates are double from normal. But totally worth it
-
@louisbosco Just now saw your patina update. that has to be the best aged natty leather piece i’ve ever seen… jeez.. well done!
-
@FlavourFade oh bro. Sorry to hear about your pooch. I had a similar situation happen when I bought my Himel Leather jacket. I was feeling a bit of buyers remorse. Then the next day my dog had to have emergency stomach surgery to the tune of $6,000 dollars. Fortunately his insurance covered most of it. Things settled and I ended up keeping the jacket too. Hope it all works out for you too.
-
@FlavourFade give it a chance, wear it in, and the colour will change! fwiw, I too thought that it was boring at the start..
-
@louisbosco @Mizmazzle I know I will regret it but I have to return it. Could buy three pale riders from what I have to pay for the surgery and since I just bought a new motorcycle thats a bit of a stretch. Maybe I will cheer myself up with the restock of the wabash western this week. Would have loved to join the Club but it's not the right time.
-
@FlavourFade that's fair. hope everything goes well for your dog!!
-
Hope the dog gets well man!
-
@FlavourFade hope it all works out man. I know that stress.
Not to be a pusher man, but IH has an amazing 30 day return policy. Could sit on it a bit and see how things develop.
-
@Mizmazzle I ordered from Statement Store, it's a smaller retailer and regarding the price I don't want to stress out the time I would have left to sit on it. Also I think this would not make it easier
-
@FlavourFade good luck bro. Nothing is more important than your pups health.
-
@FlavourFade no my friend it looks great on you and your complexion, I can assure you, is much less pale than mine (which often has greenish tones
), plus I have very very white hair. So when I wear my Extractor I risk dazzling my partner if she doesn't wear dark glasses 
. Absolutely not, in my opinion it looks very good on you
