@AdamJ might not look terrible but my prior version of this shirt sits very different at the collar. Merz are on it

Thanks y’all looking forward to breaking these puppies in. Appreciate the feedback.

As mentioned previously.. after the hem and soak these ended up a little bit longer than the measurement I had in mind. Factoring in the cuff, these are measuring about .5-.75 inches longer than my 888-142od and 633s. I was bit worried but obviously they’re not a mile off, and maybe .5 inches extra isn’t a bad thing with XHS? Thoughts? Brightness all the way up so the fit is visible.

@Tom-Longarms last weekend on Camden Street!

@Tom-Longarms pretty sure I saw this fit IRL in Dublin

This is a skill I really want to learn. Amazing job. Would love to hear the steps you’ve taken to get to this point. If you do the sleeves make sure to document it here!

Big day at work so had to bring the heat

@worn2fade @Denimhead-0 thanks gents!

Pretty sure a year ago I said to myself I’d never do 25oz yet here we are… post hot soak fit. Seemingly I only lost about .5 inches in inseam so I fear they might be longer than I wanted. Will have to see how they wear over the next little while to see what I should do next. Overall happy with the fit. Wife on the other hand, is confused.

It’s all IH today. 888-142od.

Thanks for the insights gents

For the initial hot soak with this denim - inside out or no? And if yes, at what stage would you turn them right way round? I’ve seen on the forum people previously getting unwanted streaks / marks after the soak, so trying to avoid that.

First IH piece was the IHSH-288 Kersey work shirt in July of ‘22. Was so impressed with the fabric and construction.. it made me an immediate IH loyalist.

Thanks both for the insight. I’ll start to work more items into washing machine

I don’t have a bathtub at home, and with the items I really care about, I tend to hand wash my pieces in a storage type container in the shower - but it’s such a hassle. Should I be so afraid of using the washing machine? I try and take the best care of my things as possible so I’m cautious…

Loving this combo: IHSH-292, IH-526PJ

@worn2fade haha likewise brother! A much anticipated drop

@worn2fade you misunderstood I did secure a pair. Just expressing my relief!

Damn - snagged the coveted 34. Didn’t think it’d be that quick!
