Ready for my first Indigo Invitatioal with these 633! I had some extra denim from getting them hemmed, so I made a little DIY phone case with the extra denim. I’m no expert by any means, so hopefully it stays together. I’ll be using it once the competition starts. I think the phone case will get a bit more wear and tear, so it’ll be nice to see how it fades compared to the jeans.
Made it out to the LA shop about 10 minutes after opening. I had my eyes on the prize and was able to snag both items that I wanted; Indigo CPO and Indigo 633. The OD CPO looked and felt amazing, and it was hard to resist the temptation. Fortunately, they ran out of my size.
I figured some of you would like to see some shots of the CPO, so I took some quick photos. The 633 are getting hemmed, so I’ll take photos of those when I get them back.
Got to meet and chat with @Giles, @Alex, @kiya, and Demitra. Picked up some free goodies. Drank some drinks. Overall, I had a great time at the party.
Congrats to the Self Edge and Iron Heart teams for an epic release!
Just posting an quick update here. I’ve had this for about 2.5 years. I wore it pretty heavily during the first year, but not nearly as often as I wore my jeans. I’ve always been a fan of the texture. After washing it in the washer for the first time recently, the slubbiness has definitely popped a bit more.
Been wearing this Tom Western a lot recently. Love the character that’s developing throughout the shacket. It definitely still has some sheen and squeakiness to it.
Washed, repaired, and ready to go!
Second monthly check in for these SEXIH25-633. The honeycombs are pretty much set and showing more depth. The zippo fade in the coin pocket is starting to pop a little bit more. My left knee is fading a bit more due to playing with my young kids. There’s some very minor roping going on, which I’m excited for. The cell phone case fade is definitely the fastest fading piece in the overall project. Two months down! 10 more to go.
Great to see the activity in here. I purchased the Tom Western SK-13 in April. I’ve been trying to wear it as often as I could in this sporadic Southern California weather. I don’t need anything super heavy duty, so this “shacket” is perfect for me.
Due to these running smaller, I took a gamble on the size when I purchased it. Fortunately, I fell in love with the fit immediately once I received it. The sleeves are just a tiny bit longer than what I’d prefer, but all the other measurements work well for me. I’m currently eyeing the Kakishibu Type 1, so hopefully I’ll be able to add another Y’2 piece.
I wore it earlier this week on a family trip to Legoland, and it was awesome!
These have been worn for one year straight with just the initial soak; no washes. Typically at this point, I’d just give them a soak with a mild hand wash. I decided to try something new and threw them in the washer on no spin cold wash, after an hour-long soak.
The lighting isn’t ideal, so I’ll try to take some more pictures in natural lighting. I’ll be sending these off to IH for some repairs. In the meantime, I’ll be switching gears to the 888-SBG
Just wanted to post an update on this beautiful denim. I’ve been wearing the 633 everyday for a little over a month for Indigo Invitational. I’ve been wearing the CPO very sparingly for about two months since it hasn’t really been cold in Southern California. I started using the cell phone case the same time I started wearing the jeans.
@Denimhead-0 it has been too hot in Southern California to wear it recently. But I’ve got a few pictures showing some wear.
This was when it was “new”. I bought it secondhand.
This was about a year after I received it, with about 6-7 months of wear.
I really enjoy that it’s a bit more fitted and tapered.
I picked up this piece recently from @HalfPastNever. This is my first IH shirt, so I was a little worried about the shoulder measurement being just a tiny bit too small. I decided to take a chance, and luckily it worked out for me.
I was looking for a black shirt. I was torn between this or the 361. Ultimately, I went with the 295. I want to wear it primarily as a shirt with a t-shirt underneath. It’s a bit stiff at the moment, so it doesn’t drape as nicely as the broken-in ones I’ve seen on here. But that makes me more excited to start breaking this one in for myself. I’d also like to add the 295-IB in the future.
Just to add another data point
Brannock 8.5D
Alden Plaza 8.5D
Alden Trubalance 8D
Viberg 2030 8
Based off of recommendations I received, I went with 7.5 for the Casper’s. I really wanted to love them, but the 7.5 was way too small for me. I’d say I have pretty generic feet. But there’s no way going 1 whole size down from Brannock would’ve worked for me. I ended up selling them for a huge loss. I might try a size 8 one day, but I’ll have to try them on before purchasing. If that’s a possibility for you, I’d highly recommend going that route.
Hello! I’m interested in purchasing this, but I live in the US. Do you know how much the total would be to be shipped to California?
Thanks for all the feedback! I appreciate it. Can’t wait to finally get my first UHF!
Do UHF stretch at all? I’m kind of in between a side Large and Extra Large. I need something with a 22” chest measurement and 19” shoulder measurement.
Size Large has my ideal chest measurement, but the shoulders are 0.5” smaller than ideal. On the other hand, size Extra Large has my ideal shoulder measurement, but the chest is 2” bigger than ideal.
Any input/siggestions?

Purchased directly from Snake Oil Provisions in February 2025; Received August 2025. Worn lightly less than five times. It’s a beautiful light jacket with some amazing sashiko fabric. I’ve got a few different jackets that I reach for more often than this one, so this one has to go.
