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

@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.

Has anyone thrown their 397 in the dryer? I recently purchased a new 4xl / SP off fleabay that’s a little big. I did a hot soak and hang dried and the post soak measurements are exactly the same. Was hoping to get some shrinkage. A 3xl would have been ideal, however, will work as an overshirt.

@Denimhead-0 looks ok very slightly oversized but looks good.the more you wear it ,it will drape alot better and not look so stiff.

@gazza61 Thanks! I’ll let it finish hang drying and post a couple after pics. It definitely lost some color post soak. Regardless, it’s a beauty and a keeper for sure.

@Denimhead-0 I reckon it looks good! Doesn't appear to be "overly too large" if that's even a thing, I didn't even know about this shirt until now!

@Jord another amazing IH creation

@Denimhead-0 I picked up a 4X as well for an overshirt after getting the 2X. I've washed and dried it on hot twice with very minimal shrinkage. I noticed a little color loss as well. You may not get much shrinkage with a hot dry. If I remember correctly it was like less than 1/2" in any direction.

@Denimhead-0 I think the fit is spot on for this shirt. The fabric is pretty beefy and if you sized down you’d def feel it in your shoulder and pit. Mine has shrunk ever so slightly and I’ve gained some good weight and it is bordering on being too snug.

@Denimhead-0 its a great shirt the guys at rivet and hyde said their hands went blue getting them ready for sale.

@gazza61 my wife is already pissed about the indigo bleeding on the couch from IB denim

@gazza61

Just saw this in the BBC, I think we can relate…

[gazza61]

@Jord I saw that aswell anyone who has raw denim has had that happen to them it happened to me after some jeans got wet in a rain shower when I got home and took them off I nearly had a heart attack thinking I had a serious problem with my smirf 🦵 leg's.

@Denimhead-0 many a good white t-shirt got attacked by the Indigo.

I wasn’t happy with the fit, so did a super hot soak followed by a hot dryer cycle. Happy to report I got a half inch off the p2p and sleeves and a whole inch off the length. Feels perfect and no ill effects.

@Denimhead-0 looking good

@Denimhead-0 Looks Great! It's one of my favorite shirt, the thing fades so easily, and has plenty of character.

@TheChef17 Great to hear, so happy I found one.
