      @chopcity223 I moved your question here, thanks for joining and your question.

      Western shirts are cut slightly slimmer in the body than work shirts, which may explain what you're describing in the armpit area. Work shirts are designed to be a bit more forgiving, and to work in, so you may find this eases your concern. CPO shirts (like the IHSH-292-IND) are also cut slighty larger than western shirts as they are designed to be worn as over shirts, but I would suggest you try a work shirt first

      This is the work shirt version of the shirt you have, for what its worth:

          @chopcity223 you can also see all our work shirts here:

          It looks like the banner at the top is not displaying properly, sorry about that, but beneath that white space you can see the shirts

            Iron Heart 888 or 777

            Hello to you all, I have purchased my first Iron Heart jeans in the 666. However measuring 8.5 on the leg inner it seems like a boot cut, compared to my normal jeans. I was wondering if I should go for the 777 or 888, ideally I would like a 7 inch inner leg seam. My preference would be high rise with a 7inch leg. Perhaps as a 51 year old 36w the slimmer style is not the way forward? Any suggestions

              @craig11 I have moved your question to here.

              Do you currently have a pair of jeans that fit you well and the way you want? If so, watch this video on how Ironheart measures their jeans: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/post/5619 and it will give us a much better chance of finding a pair that will work for you.

                Just take a look at a few of the measurement charts (there is on on every product page under "Size Guide". But, I'm guessing you mean you want a 7" hem, in which case we have nothing remotely that slim. As a point of reference the 888 and 555 have high rise 777 low.

                  Out of all your fabrics, what would you say is the most durable? I suppose the 17oz duck?

                    @RobeOfTheMagi all of them?

                    17oz duck is a beast as you say, but I am yet to find a fabric that we make that I have deemed "soft" or non-durable.

                    Any of our denims will take a serious beating to be compromised. Our 12oz wabash, whilst objectively lighter than XHS denim, is an absolute tank. The 12oz whipcord is another example of a fabric that I would class as highly durable despite not being super tough in hand

                    The devil is in the detail..

                        hi everyone ,
                        I will have a trip to Dubai next week and was wondering if you guys know and recommend any places where I can find Iron Heart in Dubai or even any other Japanese denim brand shop in general in Dubai.
                        thanks

                              I'm looking for my first IH denim western shirt and I have no idea which one to get. Any recommendations for a solid first choice? I'm not really looking into acquiring a large amount of denim shirts; I'd rather have one that I commit some time to.

                              I know It a very broad question but there might be some forum favourites :).

                                @RobeOfTheMagi Easy answer for me and it would be one of the IHSH-33’s. Pick your colour and you can’t go wrong.

                                  Another vote for the 33. It's such a great shirt.

                                        Well not quite. I want blue denim. But contrast stitching or not?
