IHSH-68-ind - 12oz Wabash Work Shirt - Indigo

[popvulture]

So, please forgive my newbness re: this shirt, but is there a plan to keep the black and metal versions in continuous production? I see that this batch of metal-buttoned just came and went recently, and a fresh batch of black buttons in… so would this mean I shouldn't expect more of the metal too soon? I think I'd probably prefer metal but black looks very nice too.

TBH.  Not sure, we'll monitor how each sells and make a decision later….

Dunno, the shirt has a lot going on visually, so the black buttons do sorta tone it down a little bit. I like that. DECISIONS.

Agreed, the toning down is great. I used to own the OG metal button version and loved it, but I really do like the black buttons for a sleeker, cleaner look.

Someone with black buttons should post a picture….

I just received mine in the mail today. It's super nice! Do you soak this shirt before you start really wearing it?

You can but you don’t have to. It will shrink a little with lots of washing or very warm washing, so if you want to you can get that out of the way now through a hot soak.

Okay, might try to get a soak in later today. Thanks Neph!

When will IHSH-68-ind be restocked?

[Giles]

Late March/Early April

All right

Compared to IHSH-75-IND, which fabric is softer to the touch?

They have a very different hand. The 12oz denim feels thinner, less robust and more malleable than the wabash, especially with washes.

[MichalM]

So wabash is thicker and heavier?

[sabergirl]

They’re the same weight, just feel different. Wabash may feel a little heavier at first.

OK, understand.
Hickory Stripe shirt is also 12oz, but it's not heavy in feel for me.
