IHSH-76 - 17oz Indigo Selvedge Denim Shirt/Jacket

[denimchicken]

This shirt will be primarily a jacket for me.  I live in TX so our winters here aren't that harsh.  Pretty much my wardrobe stays the same year round for me, I just add a jacket in the colder months.  Standard for me is a thin button down, denim or flannel, with a jacket on top.

I think this will work out nicely.  Looking forward to getting this beast broke in.  To be noted, I am also a heavy denim virgin.  I have tons of light weight denim shirts, Levi's and RRL, but this is the first extreme quality heavy denim piece for me.

Oh and thank you Gile's and Matt for taking care of me.  Customer service and communication have been great here.

Question to the owners of this beast: is it too warm/heavy as a middle layer?

Depends on the climate and what you put over it. Mine is quite fitted. I can get it over a tee and under my N1 no problem. It's already down to 3C where I live so I'll be using it like that for sure.

Thanks, I planned to wear it like a normal denim shirt under jackets when the temps drop. And I see they're going extinct so I decided to step my denim shirt game up from 12 oz (33) to 17 oz. Let's hope sizing works out.

This is surely a very heavy shirt/overshirt.  It's awesome.  And mine too is quite "fitted".  If you want to wear as a jacket you might consider sizing up 1.

Thanks for the advice! I sized up after checking the measurements of the 33 and the 99 as I'm planning to hot soak the 76.

Bummer I couldn't make this beast work. Had to find out I'm just not a shacket guy :(.

[neph93]

That's a shame! Just a bad fit?

[Dion]

I was in between sizes but it just didn't suit me personally. Nevertheless it's a great piece and for anyone on the fence: grab it while it's available!

Thanks everyone!
I do love that shirt.
Will be fun seeing it evolve further.
It is quite stubbon. But I am really pleased with the progress so far.

Hi
New to this forum and new to iron heart… saw a FB post on a watch related matter where the IHSH-99 was mentioned - researched like a madman and discovered to my dismay my size was sold out and wouldn't be restocked [emoji33]
Did the next best thing and ordered this one instead [emoji106]
Really looking forward to this one…
