shouldn‘t have slipped through qc, tbh.

My view too.....I have posted a link to the post in the CS system....

Mine had a little pockmark like this smack in the middle of the bicep. The first owner had a coin-sized piece of deerskin sewn on the inside to patch it. With the repair I wouldn’t expect anything else will happen to it. The whole thing is very noticeable and I probably would have been a little disappointed with the hole if I had bought it new. Wabi sabi!

@TheChef17 I also think that a patch sewn onto the inside of the shirt should stabilize the area... If you can live with the look and if it makes you feel better... I had something like that in the armpit area of ​​my shirt. I left it as is, and it hasn't gotten any worse in two years.

@TheChef17 Hi, I will shortly email yourself so please keep an eye out in your inbox

@TheChef17 That's unfortunate. I was reading this thread to see if the quality got any better since I had ordered and returned one back in 2023. It had some stitching issues. See photos. That's a brand new one I had just received, but sent it back.

[TheChef17]

@nixage Dang brotha, I'm sorry to hear that! Hopefully they can stitch that one back to new though

[TheChef17]

@matt_rost I think so too, just gotta look into getting a piece for the hole, but thanks for the info!

[TheChef17]

@sabergirl fingers crossed! it def will be personalize for sure after

Anyone recommend or discourage use of protectant on these? I was planning to let it go without but thought of it today

[AdamJ]

@gusg you should be fine without to be honest. Won't be an issue if it gets wet

[gusg]

@AdamJ thanks! That’s what I hoped

@TheChef17 I purchased this shirt in February of 2024 and immediately discovered a perforation just like this, but located on the back right shoulder area. So every time I move my right arm a fold or crease happens on that spot. I have worn this shirt quite a bit but definitely baby it and so far so good.

I figured I'd tell you that because yours seems to be in an area I'd consider a bit better to have this issue, either way it's definitely not something you want to have. I did let the IH team know about my issue and they said if it gets bigger or anything that they would take care of it. I actually have another spot on the front of the right side, under the stitching on the yoke, where it feels like a weak spot or the leather is degraded(you can see light through it).

The point is that both of these spots are still the same as the day I received the shirt but I also don't put it through much.

Just over 1 year old. , almost one wear each week .
Got caught in a light shower and became almost soaked through , didn’t notice any difference in appearance at all when fully hung dried , looked brand new.
Easily the nicest piece I’ll ever own .
