IHSH-196- Indigo Check Western Shirt

[pleegray]

@neph93:

I’m glad you got to pick one up. Nice score. Are you in the UK?

No, in the US. I got this shirt from Rivet & Hide because they were available in my size then. They aren't now though. Many people in the US will not have been to your website or Rivet & Hide and they could go just as quickly at Self Edge once they post them.

Every now and then you see something you really want. This fit the bill, so I didn't take any chances.

Recent history - I'm still mildly irritated I don't have the long-sleeve indigo Studio Artisan t-shirt. When i got the short sleeve a year ago, i was like "this is beautiful if a little heavy, but the long sleeve in this fabric would be perfect." Only Okayama Denim actually did put the long-sleeve one on sale at 4:00 am my time and my size was gone by the time I woke up.

Not my website, I’m just a mod on the forum [emoji6]

I was curious as I figured you were American and I’m always interested in the dynamics of the business. What sells and why, where people buy from, etc?

Thanks for the info.

@Appfaff:

So some of you guys know that I'm weird and habitually iron (w/ steam) all of my IH gear. I prefer the crisp look on my shirts and jeans, and learned years ago that high heat and a little steam can counteract the slight shrinkage that continuous washing can bring to your favorite gear.

While I do not always see increases in measurements after an iron (w/ steam), I notice that the flannels almost always have a good bit of room to grow, especially after a wash.

I too hot steam iron my shirts, and jeans when new for the first wash or two, and have had similar results, with a slight increase in measurements. Most fabrics, especially some of IH's heavier shirting fabrics, benefit from a hot steam iron.

[Haddtoo 555]

I won’t wear it to work!

One of my 201’s will be a beater

After s wash & dry should be perfect

[neph93]

Because it’s not perfect now?  Looks it to me.

Nice fit @kkozel ! I'm more of a workshirt tendency…and watched this one go by. Pics like yours make me wonder whether it was a mistake. Great looking shirt.

Got one from SE and love it. For those who missed out from IHUK, SE has them in stores, but not online yet. However, i just messaged Kiya and confirmed stock and then, as he instructed, purchased a different item with the same price and wrote in the notes to send an IHSH-196 instead. I'll post a pic of mine sometime soon.

Great pics everyone!!! 

Finally got mine (thanks IHUK crew, I know it was a bitch)…absolutely pimptastic!!!

Would love to see more flannels come unbrushed like this...maybe even an aspero UHF???
