I got the 293 about 2 years ago and it's been my only IH shirt. I think it might be time to give it some company. I hope there's not too much overlap between this and the 293.

Just to echo what Oaktavia said…I have Over-dyed and Indigo/Black jeans and there’s zero overlap. I also have an over-dyed 33 and now I’ll be getting an Indigo/Black western,that’s essentially a 33 on steroids.

@Easystride the 295 and 293 are two supremely different shirts and denims...to play Devil's advocate.

Y'all convinced me lol. I'm on board. It will be nice to have a non CPO for slightly warmer days too. Can't wait! Now I'm just debating sticking with my 293 size of medium or dropping down to small. Probably will stick with medium based on the size chart.

So tempted by this but worry there's too much overlap with my beloved 293 I picked up last year.

I bought this shirt during the September 2024 Self Edge sale and it has become my favorite clothing purchase in years. Been wearing the heck out of it and finally starting to see some blue peaking through.

Is there any general census on machine wash vs hand wash?I did my first two washes hand washed in the bathtub, but it takes a lot of water and effort lol. The only thing I'm worried about with machine wash is wrinkles and creases.

I'm loving this necro bump and it has inspired me to take a picture of mine. I have a massive soft spot in my heart for EFF as it was my first forray into spending more and buying less which brought me down the raw denim rabbit hole. 7 years later after my first EFF hat, I joined this forum and made my first IH purchase in September 2024, the IHSH-293-OD. Definitely won't be my last either but probably going with pants next

@Mister_Brue I am constantly reaching towards where my pockets would be on my other denim jacket. Gonna definitely be hard to go back. I can see some more CPOs in my future but gotta give this one some love first.
Maybe my next IH purchase would be jeans or pants though... I've gone down a dangerous rabbit hole

Got my shirt today and I have to think I got the sizing right. Man, this thing is amazing. My first IH item, and I'm gonna wear the heck out of it when it finally cools off.

@Oroccoco haha! I'm looking forward to it! I've been fading the 13 oz Gustin heavy Japan black work shirt for about 4 years but the button holes are starting to get shot. Figured it was time to take the plunge and get an IH with snaps.

Self Edge already shipped my order! Can't wait to try it on, I'll have to post some fit pics.

I also picked this shirt up in the Self Edge sale. It will be my first Iron Heart item.

Hope I sized right, went with medium at 5'10" 145 lbs, 38" chest. I'm usually in between small and medium in most brands.

@WhiskeySandwich that's what I was thinking as well. Usually a medium at 5'10" 145lb, but medium is looking pretty big, especially sleeves.

Just waiting for it to go live on Black Blue!

Dang, I've been saving my clothing budget for the last 12 months for the restock of IHSH326-OD 12OZ for my first Iron Heart purchase but I might have to jump on this instead. It looks right up my alley.

Sweet, summer is probably better for my budget. Can't wait.

@Matt yea, unfortunately both Self Edge and Snake Oil Provisions are also both out of stock for size medium. Oh well, I guess I'll just hang on to my budget and wait for a restock. I guess I'm in no hurry, was just really looking forward to my first IH shirt.

Thanks!

Bit of an Iron Heart newbie. I was hoping to pick this shirt up in medium during the sale, but no go :(. Any updates on a potential restock? Been purposely saving up for this shirt.
