IHSH-208-IND - Indigo Kersey Western Shirt

[cb09]

I think I might go with copper.

[don_pipone]

I‘d go for copper too

[ogcraig1]

Copper for the win for me.

Copper will patina faster and should be dark brown, then into vibrant blues and greens.

Brass should shift to deep golden browns, ambers, and olive tones.

Still debating whether i go for brass or copper snaps

This makes the decision simple

[don_pipone]

@CosmoSix5 There is no such thing as coincidence

[cyclops]

Hey @don_pipone how much give/flex would you say this shirt has? Like especially in the shoulders? Im....sadly between sizes 🥲

[don_pipone]

@cyclops I am between sizes too and have quite wide shoulders. I went for the smaller size. It feels a bit tight, but I can easily move and it doesn’t feel restrictive at all. I‘d say certain give/flex is definitely there.

[cyclops]

@don_pipone ooo hmm interesting! Hmm yeah normally i am like 19.5inch shoulders. But they are at 19.2 for XL so its a toss up. And i dont wanna keep hassling the good folks at IH to measure so its a bit of a guessing game....and going up a size is good for shoulders but the chest becomes too wide with material behind the arms etc... thanks anyway its good to get feedback from those that own it

[don_pipone]

@cyclops I took the risk because I find this shirt must keep its slim silhouette and didn't want it to wide from chest to opening. The fabric is really soft and forgiving. I have other shirts with similar sizing but different fabric that I barely wear since they don't have any give at all.

[cyclops]

@don_pipone yeah i totally know what you mean. Other brands i might take a risk cause its thinner crappier fabric perhaps. IH is so tough most of the time that i have to think more carefully. Ok very interesting and genuine thanks for the feedback! Will have lots to think about....

[don_pipone]

@cyclops I know the struggle. However, I am pretty sure the IH folks would be happy to help you and measure You won't be the first and definitely not the last one

I put copper snaps on mine about a year ago, was a good decision, actually had some random lady stop me at a store and ask where I got the shirt because her son would like it

[Northman]

Scored a second hand one for my better half last year. Nice fades. It's her favorite shirt to lounge in and makes a great maternity shirt for feeding because of the snap open/closure while being soft and relaxed.

[Johnnyutah247]

Could be a stupid question so forgive me but how does this fabric compare to the 13.5 ounce Dobby cloth ?

[FlavourFade]

@Johnnyutah247 way softer, little bit like slubby flannel maybe but definetely not as rigid and less textured

[roydub87]

@Johnnyutah247 it’s a totally different beast but both are amazing. The jersey is more comparable to corduroy but it’s definitely not corduroy. The Dobby is a bit rougher and slub adjacent

[deathbydenim]

I have a ues Tricotine shirt. This looks somewhat similar. Since it’s softer than the Dobby shirt would it also be softer than the Tricotine?

Also - how many indigo shirts does a man need, asking for a friend!

All of them

Here’s mine with copper snaps… need to wear it more often, it’s a beautiful material/shirt.

[don_pipone]

@Jord looks amazing! This makes me want to get mine retrofitted
