IHSH-62-BLK - 12oz Wabash Western Shirt - Black
-
At long last I got my hands on some wabash! As expected this thing is beautiful! It’s also softer than I was expecting. Was thinking it might feel a little more crispy but it is soft right away (to me)!
This is an XL which feels a little better sleeve length than some other XXL I have.

Looks amazing
Are those jeans SBG 634s? -
Just got a medium in this, and while it fits better than the small…
That is the correct size for you. An L would be long everywhere and wide too.
Bare in mind that this is not a formal shirt. It is made from heavy, tough fabric. This will cause it to crease differently to other materials. These shirts take a while to break in and drape properly.

Thank you [mention]goosehd [/mention]and [mention]neph93 [/mention] ! Helpful comments for sure. I spent some time wearing the shirt last night, and I started to feel better about it. Thanks for the support!

I can’t be the first person to ask, but this shirt is a left-hand twill, right? Is that significant?

I believe it is RHT… the only significance of the direction of the weave in twill fabrics is in the hands of the designer. LHT creates more challenges with dyeing than RHT due to more of the weft showing. That is what makes the IH 19oz LHT interesting as IH goes to great lengths to create an unusually dark LHT fabric.

The wabby is a serge right? 2 up 2 down right hand twill? I guess denim may originate from "serge de Nimes" so perhaps it's both?
-
It's a twill, which is what both denim. and serge are. I possibly should not have used the term "denim", but yes, one of the trains of thought is that Denim originated from the term Serge de Nimes…..
A nice article her:

Cool. Only reason I asked is because the diagonal-looking pattern goes up to the left, not the right. What am I mistaking this for?

You’re right, it does. I suspect that the outward face of the shirt is actually the reverse of the fabric. Might be worth checking with Haraki-san, @Giles ?
-
well this is so interesting–such an iconic fabric to be learning about all these years later!
I think you've cracked the case, @neph93 ; what else could it possibly be? When I compare the inside and outside fabric, the twill is far more pronounced on the putative reverse / exterior than it is on the face/interior, so perhaps that is the rationale for this–definitely more texture and fade potential this way.
Great observation, @gunar

I suppose it could be that this was LHT all along and H didn’t think to mention it. It wouldn’t be the first time something like that happened. I think the very fine face of the inside of the shirt supports my initial theory.
However, I just checked my sulphur dyed olive serge western and that is the same. Rougher exterior, with a [emoji3485] twill pattern looking almost like micro wales, and a finer interior going [emoji3486]. So this seems to be a feature of Haraki-san’s 12oz serge whichever it is.

I was only going to buy the BLK. That same day got a job offer and they matched my asking salary. Shit my pants went back to the website and added the IND with copper snap upgrades.
