IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

[Mindfulbiscuit]

with a heavy heart I gave up my journey with this shirt it shrunk to much and the buttons just kept coming off I don’t know if it was my job that stressed the shirt to much but I sold it on to someone hopefully who can take it to another level

@Mindfulbiscuit oh man. This is a heart breaking story indeed. Did you find that it kept shrinking with each additional wash?
I’ve washed mine about 3 times now (cold/ line dry) and haven’t noticed much.
Your 397 was def the gold standard in fade progress.

@Mizmazzle yeah I cold washed it and it just got to tight on me being a work shirt it fit well for me in the beginning but I always thought working in it didn’t help as mybe sweating in it made it moulded to my body as well I wore for 240 days it faded beautifully but this in this fabric not for construction sites

@Mizmazzle thank you

I just wish it was a CPO. I love mine, but wish I could put my hands in some pockets. Even thought about trying to put em in after the fact.

@FlavourFade Nothing on the schedule I'm afraid, however it's not to say we wont do it again in the future, so never say never.

@newtoiron @FlavourFade Sounds like the IHSH-437-IND is one to keep an eye on. Has much more heft than the 13.5oz will have you believe

[FlavourFade]

@JoshC @AdamC thanks guys, I will keep my hopes up but look into the cpo for now:-)

[FlavourFade]

@DeeDee85 I am really getting into workshirt cuts lately, they just fit my frame better, but still lot of love for western cuts

@AdamC Ha. You don’t need to tell me twice. It’s top of my list for the season. I know you said it was your fave in the video too.
