IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo

[darkmatt3r]

I've got one of these on the way, can't wait 
Can any on confirm these will lose .5 of an inch (shoulders mainly) after an hot soak? I have had a good read through the thread but advise seems to be pretty conflicting

If say its a safe bet with a hot wash maybe not with a soak.. Agitation is the key to yielding a bit of extra shrinkage has been my discovery and I do it on every shirt to achieve a bit more of a bespoke look.

Im a M in IHSH-59. Based on the charts the S should fit nicely but am thinking of M.Will it shrink much?

[Giles]

A bit….

"Slight shrinkage to be expected, these are made slightly oversized to compensate"

[hate]

is it worth to wear this shirt a lot before the first wash? fades good?

[Giles]

Yes

[hate]

thanks for the fast reply! will do my best

^I'm 6 months in without a wash and it's only just starting to show definition. Serious Wear (TM) required.

Finally caved and washed the '33. As expected all indigo is still on the shirt and it looks as good as the day it was purchased. A little stiffer, nil shrinkage. Will get some photos of it in the next week or two once the creases settle back in.

10 months, 3 washes, tons of wear (whenever I can);

click for closer view, suggest doing so to see the details

Some roping

Some combs beginning to form, and other bits of wear coming through

The elbow and forearm area is really starting to break in.

After near a year of wear I'm still very much so loving this and feel like it's an extension of me.

That was a long week or two, but it needed the time :).
