Can someone help me ID this Western shirt? Things to note - No runoff stitching, selvedge line is indigo?, looks pretty black and fade to grey/blue, throat clasp is a snap not a button. Got it used and wondering the weight..

@jerkules have to say I agree with @Aetas i bought my 14oz indigo 555’s to wear in the warmer months and have had no problem wearing them in high heat. I never thought I’d say this either but they might.. they just might be my favourite pair of jeans. Softened up loads, slow faders but after around 35 full days wear they are showing signs of just how awesome they are going to be.
So many differing opinions, I don’t think any are wrong. Each denim is unique and is probably why most of us end up with a pair of each

@Coldsnap looks OD and like the chainstitch was cut off. Could be an OD 33 depending on how heavy it is.

[AdamJ]

@Coldsnap @Matt only thing that's throwing me off is the 33-OD has contrast stitching, or at least for as long as I can recall

[Jett129]

@AdamJ @Giles can confirm this but the first time that a 33 was over dyed,was a shirt, where I think Haraki wasn’t satisfied with the Indigo color and Giles said over dye them. This might be that shirt?

[Giles]

Could be, but I can only vaguely remember that....

Isn't it about time we get an Under dyed shirt or pair of denim jeans?

^^ hahah

Maybe a home dye job on a 33T?

[Matt]

Side dyed

[Jett129]

@Giles If you go to the start page of IHSH-33od,you'll see the story of how the shirt came to be(Happy Accident) back on March of 2015. I don't think it's the shirt in question,but a cool flashback nonetheless. Sorry for not providing the direct link,but it comes right up if you search on it.

I don’t enough about the various iterations of od denim shirts to be of any more help here. Sorry.

[Tago Mago]

@Matt I was counting on you. My heart is broken

[Jett129]

That shirt was a pretty big deal back then,not unlike some recent items,albeit on a much smaller scale. I had that shirt and had put IH patches on it,but it ended up being a weight gain sale. 2015 seems like a lifetime ago.

[Matt]

Seriously.

[chrisjohnnick]

I think if it was a home dye job the white size tag in the collar would’ve picked up some color, too.

[chrisjohnnick]

But I guess to answer the original posts question, I’d say the weight is that of the 33

[Oaktavia]

Is there any additional information about the 19oz indigo/grey denim used for the 140 jacket? I have tried searching for other indigo/grey denims too and have not found one on here. Was the denim used to only make the 140? From what I remember there isn't any more of it left either. I'm just super curious about it and any info would be rad to learn.

Size difference between Okayama and American/Euro retailers

I’ve recently purchased a Samurai shirt in xxl from Self Edge and saw the same shirt along with some different colors on the Okayama site. But the xxl on the Okayama site is almost 3inches smaller around the chest. I’ve also noticed the same with other brands on the Okayama site. Do these companies size differently for different markets? Possibly measure differently?

[goosehd]

@edgarallanpoe Those companies do not size differently for different markets and the sizing issue you see is between the retailers and how they measure.

I moved your question to here.
