IHSB-BIGBUCK-NAT - Deerskin Western Shirt 'The Big Buck' - Natural

@blue2gnt Yeah - that's too much.

@blue2gnt That's the difference between Made In Japan and Made In Scotland. But honestly, if you look closely and measure from the center of the button to the pocket it's not that far off. Maybe half an inch? The gap on one side is going to seem larger due to the snaps. What does it look like when you close it up?

[blue2gnt]

@nixage arguably worse / more noticeable

@blue2gnt while I see why you don't want to keep a shirt that maybe should not even have passed qc, I don't get how this "ends" your experience with IH? Maybe I am reading it wrong but IMO that's just the gamble with hand made products. Is it cool that this happens? No! But it's sure not a dealbreaker that speaks for the whole IH brand.

[blue2gnt]

@FlavourFade It doesn't end my experience with IH, not at all. Just ended the honeymoon.

Life happens... and they'll make you whole for it. That's what matters.

So I decided to check how obsessive I was being on this and took the photos to my wife - ostensibly a neutral party (largely because she has no concept whatsoever of how expensive it is) and said "hey do you notice anything weird about this shirt?"

She said no. I said look again. She spent another 30 seconds looking at it. Other than a few "Do you really need more Iron Heart shirts" she didn't find anything unusual about it.

I then said 'look at where the pockets are lined up', and she immediately said "oh yeah, now I see"

To me, this means it passes the "does this look fucked up" at first glance test, which is enough to convince me not to cancel my order after all. I know this is always going to bother me, and this particular piece probably should have been sold as an irregular with some sort of a discount, but what would bother me more is never getting one of these shirts at all, given how limited they are.

These deer did not die in vain.

Buck and the Extractor look like they are going to go well together.

[nixage]

@blue2gnt Oooff. Yeah. Dang that sucks. But don't lose faith in IH. Like I said before. The Japanese stuff is just next level.

[nixage]

@blue2gnt I'd ask IH for a discount. IH has been great to me over the years and they always take care of their customers. Doesn't hurt asking.

@blue2gnt Sorry that you felt let down by this shirt, I can see Vik has sent a great response over email but I have also sent a follow up

@blue2gnt not ideal, but I’ve got this in olive and there’s a discrepancy in pocket spacing. Due to my personal preference, I only wear it unsnapped and there’s not even a hint of pocket spacing discrepancy when it’s unsnapped. It’s a compliment magnet and I expect this natural version will be as well.
