IHSH-75 - 12oz Indigo Selvedge Denim Work Shirt

[setandsetting]

Lots of wear and washes. Purchased October 2016.

[Giles]

We have solved the buttonhole issues.  Last time I was in Kojima, I went out with Mr Heavy Nell (the shirt maker) and Mr Heavy Ounce (Our main heavyweight jean maker).  I bought the topic up at dinner (Because I'm western and rude) and they started to talk to each other and compare notes about how to solve it. H turned to me, and said, this never happens, they are usually competitors….

Anyway, we have initiated runs of:

12oz Indigo, contrast stitching
12oz Indigo, tonal stitching
12oz Indigo overdyed
12oz Superblack - Murdered Out - Johnny Cash Works Again

Might just have to get an IH work shirt. You had me at Murdred Out.

@Giles would that mean some time jn the fall or are we looking more at winter? Especially for the cash and od…

@Giles:

12oz Indigo, contrast stitching
12oz Indigo, tonal stitching
12oz Indigo overdyed
12oz Superblack - Murdered Out - Johnny Cash Works Again

This is hurting my brain… can’t work out which one to buy.

I have it narrowed down to C or D…reducing brain discomfort to a mere twitch.

My order of preference would be Superblack,Tonal,OD,Contrast.

[neph93]

I have a 33 in contrast indigo and the 178 which is OD. I could double up easily, but Superblack may be need to be first. Tonal isn’t really my thing. But that can change [emoji3]

Oh boy. Between superblack and upcoming black XHS, I may have to start working again—pandemic be damned. [emoji23]

Music to my ears. The 75 is my favorite shirt. I’ve been thinking about another denim workshirt, and dreaming about a super black workshirt.

Tonal stitching is bad ass after the denim fades! It can be a little much when it’s new tho…

Edit: I meant contrast not tonal [emoji851]

Tonal is my choice.

[Jett129]

I have a Tonal 33,which I wore a lot this past Winter. Really starting to look great.

When will be the next restock of this one? I might add this to my collection!

The tale of the Iron Heart denim workshirt is a sad one that may yet have a happy ending.

There was a recurring issue with buttonholes not holding buttons that was discussed and hopefully solved a few months ago. Up until then production of these shirts had been halted.

The last I heard, plans had been made to produce denim work shirts in the same range of fabrics as the IHSH-33’s. I suspect that we will see them in the course of this autumn, possibly (probably), with a new lot number.

I actually went through all the threads but was not paying attention to the mentioned issues. @neph93 Thanks for making it clear to me!
