IHSB-BIGBUCK-BLK - Black Deerskin Western Shirt - The Big Buck
-
@Oaktavia i feel your paranoia man! It’s such a nice and expensive shirt. It’s funny how we love the patina we wear into our gear…but damn if it must be the “right” kind of patina haha. I feel this on the regs.
I sort of see it as a great motivator to push on to the next level of the fade progress of this shirt. We know ultimately our best pieces are the ones we’ve pushed so far we worry less and less about how we treat them and they just become effortlessly incredible.
Also…100% agree with Dennis on the suede brush. I had some blemishes on my split steer and used one of those. Gentle is best practice with spot removal on this type of gear.

@Mizmazzle @goosehd thanks guys, I appreciate the insight. I don't feel like it's ruined I just had a bit of panic this morning. My mind wanders quickly. Do you have a suede brush you prefer and could recommend?
Edit: haha @Mizmazzle I just reread your response and you're right on the money, gave me a chuckle.

@Mizmazzle Great shout and what I was trying to find a picture of!! Also, recommend investing in a suede eraser. Probably can find a combo pack from Amazon.
There are also many tutorials on YouTube on how to use them to prevent damage. As @Mizmazzle said, slow and gentle is the key to long term cleaning and care for suede.

@Mister_Brue i have to be reminded sometimes
-
@Oaktavia I have learned the hard way to send leather issues to the professionals - they’re expensive and time consuming though. Rago Bros in NJ is my go-to.

Any plans for a restock on this? If I’m a xxl in western shirts should I be looking at a xxl in the big buck?

for sure. We just cleared all our leather from tannery to factory. Once I work out how many shirts will come from the leather at the factory, we will plan more with the tannery.

shirt is looking great @Oaktavia nice to see the patina and wears on it after just a couple months!!
It's pretty much all I wear besides my 140IG. How is yours treating you?
-
@Oaktavia not too bad. still fairly new. only wear it while riding so it'll take awhile. with that said, some of the creases of the sleeves has set in so that's a good start
-
@Oaktavia Same here, my wabash western shirt had a weird line caused by a fold in the length of arms around the honeycombs area, didn't take a lot of attention to it, now it has faded like that :C
-
@Raisinoux yeah, I just avoid wearing certain shirts under other shirts for that reason.
-
I have been layering this Big Buck over my IHJ-140-IG and it's perfect. Fades and patina are starting to take off with the deerskin. I wear it 12-16 hours a day. All the dang time I have it on. It seems to take on more character each day I wear it.
-
@Oaktavia that looks fucking amazing!
