IHSH-208-IND - Indigo Kersey Western Shirt

[alexpupin]

Thanks @Daniel-San for the hint, Burg & Shild shop wasn’t on my radar. Purchased an L.

@Giles I know I should post to shop@ironheart first, I’ll remember next time

@AdamJ to give credit where credit is due, I made my decision based on a recent Instagram post by SelfEdge, showing details of the Kersey fabric.

Windy day today, so I immediately took the chance to hand wash both my kersey shirt and the 634-anni after yesterday all daylong BBQ cook.
Drying will take a few hours even in the shades.

This morning everything ‘still smelled like Brisket and Pastrami

Sooo I know these say one wash and not to expect shrinkage. Has anyone got any real shrinking out of a hot soak/wash? I have a XXXL I just got last fall and lost a ton of weight and it’s pretty darn big now.

@Kfactor I have the work shirt, minor shrinking as long as you don't boil it. the voice of experience

[HalfPastNever]

Any restock plans?

Thank you!

Restock still scheduled for sometime this Spring? Safe to say Self Edge will stock?
Really want to pick up a 208! Thx

@Tris11583 ETD is May now… if you’re interested in grabbing it from SE, your best bet would be to send them a note.

This one consistently goes missing on me, might have to cop another on the restock.

RESTOCK

[bbbrnder]

Picked this up in person at a retailer today as my first IH piece! Beautiful shirt and fabric is like nothing else.

Curious if I would be able to purchase and ship copper snaps online and then could I install easily enough myself, or take it to a place to do so? Or is the snaps upgrade only an option when ordering online in which they are swapped prior to shipping?

Thanks!

[Giles]

Glad you like the shirt and the fabric.

You need a tool and a specific die to fit snaps.

I have no idea if you have anyone around you who can do it, you'd have to ask locally. You could buy snaps from us, but it is a super costly way of doing it. Cost of snaps plus cost of shipping plus cost of getting someone else to do it for you. Or you could send it into us for us to do, but again it's a super-costly option.

[Mizmazzle]

@bbbrnder I’ve sent shirts back to IH to have copper snaps installed before. It can get kinda pricey with shipping and then return shipping. One option to mitigate the cost a bit is to ship it out and have the snaps installed. Then stack it for a bit until you buy another item. Then have the shipping bundled with the new purchase.

Also, not cheap considering the new IH item. BUT…opens all kinds of doors for some justifications haha

How does this fabric compare hand feel wise and warmth to the shashiko style 389?

[pechelman]

I found the Kersey softer, heavier, thicker, warmer, less scratchy, a little squishy feeling, and just more substantial feeling all around. Drapes so nicely too.

perfect description @pechelman
that’s exactly how it is , great!
