IHSH-368-IND - 14oz Double Cloth Western Shirt - Indigo

[tody]

Totally different, not a denim feel to this fabric. A lot softer, and with more pronounced texture.

[Crispy Heron]

@tody - ta. Worth a punt?

[tody]

@Crispy-Heron I'd say yes. I'm on the fence for the work version, having put on this one @ Kentaurus last week. What's holing me off of the western version is the sawtooth chest pockets - not my flavour.

[Crispy Heron]

@tody - hmm. I like sawtooth but want a few more opinions on the material

[Daniel San]

@tody
didn’t like the saw tooth either, but I thought I had to give it a try . And I really like it on me

[Crispy Heron]

@Daniel-San so what is the rest of the shirt like?

[pechelman]

I asked a similar question in either this or the other thread and was told it's more similar to what an unbrushed uhf might be, soft, and a little squishy. It sounded like it might have too much overlap for me with an indigo kersey (face differences aside) because it also seems to have many of the same characteristics as for warmth, same fabric weight, drape, soft, squishy, etc. Yet I still keep coming back to this double faced fabric...

[Crispy Heron]

@pechelman - thanks. If it is like the kersey then it’s a great shirt!

[pechelman]

To be clear, that's just the impression I got and could be wrong. I've not handled the double cloth. Would love to hear other thoughts just like you @Crispy-Heron

[Daniel San]

@Crispy-Heron
it’s something new, don’t think it’s really comparable to other shirts. It’s soft and super nice to wear . It’s definitely warm and I think it will fade awesome. As I wrote before, this really surprised me in a more than positive way. Didn’t expect it to be that nice .
If I had to describe it , I would say it’s a mix of the moleskin and the 18oz overdyed shirt with a little unbrushed UHF feeling
love it

[Crispy Heron]

@Daniel-San - thanks buddy. You have me tempted. Would love to see (and feel) the fabric before deciding to pull the trigger ..

[WhiskeySandwich]

It’s amazing, unlike anything really, def a good buy. I love it, one of my favorites. Just be careful about snags.

[Andymac]

Does it snag easily? Whereabouts? I noticed the waffle
shirt does very easily too
Got to say i love this shirt on day three today

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Andymac maybe it’s just me. I think my neck lanyard at work might be snagging it. I just pulled the loops thru to the inside. It’s a pretty loose weave though and I tend to snag loose weaves but I love em so I keep buying them. Just watch out for anything rough or spiky.

[Andymac]

@WhiskeySandwich
Thanks for that pal

[doubletee]

This shirt is so good, a special one

[WhiskeySandwich]

@doubletee dude it really is. Cozy af. Can’t wait to see one faded to hell

[Supersonic]

@doubletee nice fit man. Loving mine. Need to wear it harder I think. Trying to avoid babying it too much.

[Supersonic]

Some fading coming in around the cuffs, don't plan to wash this anytime soon either.

[doubletee]

This shirt is so awesome
