IHSH-221 - 13oz Double Faced Cotton Work Shirt - Indigo

[Broark]

Other than that the shirt is coming along nicely.
Added the measuring tape for color balance.

I hand washed mine before I saw this post. I was more worried about white marks and streaking.  This shirt is going to look amazing with time, It seems to fade as fast as loom breakers do!

@Giles I had the same issue with my shirt as well. I think mine are a bit small. Mine was done on delicate as well and hung out to dry. I think I have two of those, both on the back side of the shirt - kidney area.

@Broark @joephoto

Both, I think from what I can see, this is just an irregularity in the weave, I do not think it is of major concern.  But if you are worried that it is a weakness/something you do not like, PM me.

Thanks. I’m not concerned. I wouldn’t have known of others having the same occurrence had I not looked at the forum page. It’s a lovely shirt and as it’s a work shirt I’m LIVIN in it! When it goes through the wash again I’ll let you know how it gets on. Joe

Thanks @joephoto

No worries G, I'm not very concerned either.
I'll report back once I wash mine again as well to see if anything else develops.

Nice update @Broark.  That shirt looks like it will age beautifully.

Bought in July, but first real wear today as the weather finally broke below 90F in Florida…

As much as I like this shirt I wasn’t happy with the white buttons it came with. I ordered it with a GAH button one down from the top. I recently got a set of blue cat eye buttons from IHUK and wanted to share the changes.

First blue cat eye in there; they are nearly turquoise

Finished…I definitely prefer the tonal buttons in this case.

Thank you for the buttons @Giles

I’m tempted to put all metal buttons on mine a la IHSH-75 …

I’ve been wearing it more as an over shirt / light jacket this summer... excited to be able to wear it with jackets this fall/winter

Here it is over a very thin RRL dress shirt

Nicely done. I’m always struck by how rich the colour of this is.

@Appfaff Don't do it! I was tempted to go the other way with my 75 and put white on it

[Appfaff]

[mention]neph93 [/mention] - yes, it’s a great color, and with about 10 wears on it, the combs on the arm are already throwing indigo. I’m go g to try to make it through the winter before a wash.
