      I think I'll hang on to it a while longer and see if it grows on me. I'll keep you in mind, though. 😉

      As you can tell, I like to get white chambrays and then dye them.  The 119 is a great shirt for doing that.  I'm considering getting another and indigo dyeing it, since I've never worked with indigo and have been wanting to try it.

        IHSH-119 indigo is the logical consequence after that glorious IHSH-119 rusty. Great modification @Chris

        And yes, the 119 is a great shirt, even the indigo/grey one.

          I basically just bleached the fack out of my IHSH-33 and turned it an off-white.

          Unexpected home bleach. Strong result @UnTucked

            The green has buttons like my 108 except my buttons are blackish.

              @madmonday  completely forgot about fit pics.  Here are a few.  Kinda neat that under the Sharpie on the back you can see the ID: CVA-61.  Turns out that was an aircraft carrier.  The USS Ranger.

                  Your bleached out shirt looks f***ing awesome, cooler than any shirt that originally came in off-white ever could. Kudos!

                    I wanted an oversized Iron Heart logo'd copper snaps, as used on this IHSH 99, so I could remove the plain snap on the "Snappered mandarin collar" of my IH-9527J and replace it with an oversized Iron Heart logo'd copper snap. I asked @Giles and he posted me a single oversized Iron Heart logo'd copper snap that I retro-fitted to my IH-9527J, see below;

                    Cheers @Giles

                            @Giles - As a permanent alteration to the IH-527J & IH-9527J going forward, would it be possible to remove the plain snap on the "snappered mandarin collar" and replace it with an oversized Iron Heart logo'd copper snap as used on this IHSH 99 ?

                              Of course it's possible.  Will we? Probably not….

                                  I should have taken before pics, but I sent my  MBB's to Indigo Proof after the crotch blew out.

                                  I figured once shipped I may as well have her work her magic wherever possible.  They came back with a laundry list. I'm happy with the outcome and wouldn't hesitate sending them my next trashed pair.

                                            A necessary one. The white buttons clashed with every vest I own. Problem solved.
