It's crazy we can look back 13 years on this shirt with the forum and see what people were saying then...

Dude, right? I love that. And at this point I have done it with enough older items that I recognize reoccurring members who are no longer here. Read through enough pages and their personalities start to show too. Its super neat.

Right on fellas. Definitely cozy and comfortable. Super happy I pulled the trigger on this one.

@Matt yeah, thats where I'm at with it. Stoked either way, but on other hand endlessly curious.

Here it is y'all, my new (to me) 64. Fresh from wash and dryer sessions. I feel like it did shrink just a tad, which is all I was after. This shirt, which cannot be overstated, is fecking incredible. I love heavyweights of IH the most, and this one is the heaviest shirt I have next to the 21oz CPO. The 64 may be even heavier? I suppose I could try to weigh them.

Anyway, please see the blue on the tag. Perhaps this is an indigo dyed one? I am not sure why or how it would be blue otherwise but pardon my ignorance if I am incorrect.

64 fleece is definitely different! I think it feels heavier, but it’s also unbrushed on the inside, so feels more like a French terry fleece on steroids.

Totally stoked, how many shirts are still and again active by forum members these days…

Yeah its really cool to have this forum. There really is nothing else like it. I will always remember this place as long as it lives. Who knows, perhaps some of us will be on here for decades to come.

@tody yes, that is what I am thinking as well.

@tody I'm going to throw it in the dryer next on low heat with some wool dryer balls.

@Mizmazzle alright thanks for the info. It'll work either way size-wise. But I'll see what happens.

64 has arrived, it is heavy as feck. Just a tad on the large side, so I am going to hot wash and dry it to see of I can get a smidgen of shrinkage. Pretty rad shirt indeed.

Now, I have read nearly every post on this thread over the past few days. I have noticed a tinge of blue on the tag. I do not see it on the snaps though. I can post a pic of that after its dry. But overall, I think this is a keeper. I might change my mind and if that is the case, I'll make a WTS post. I doubt that will happen though...this shirt is legendary IH.

@endo so awesome man, I love seeing posts like this experimenting with dye.

Heck yeah!

Came here to say this.

@PDXPean said in Where does everyone live?:

Hey, everyone! I'm from Ohio, but now live in small town West Virginia. Recently purchased my first two Iron Heart pieces: IHSH-33-BLK and IHSH-265-PUR.

Holy crap! Another person living in WV. I am a Marylander at heart now living in Berkeley County. Which small town are you in? Welcome to the forum.

@Oaktavia sick!! I am glad you grabbed this one. I had my eye on it, but ultimately thought it would be a touch too big for me. Happy that it is going to a good home.

Thanks man, I am glad too. I'll post photos later today if the fit is right on me.

@endo woah...now that is cool to see a blanket lined shirt overdyed. What type of dye did you use? Would be rad to see more images if you are able.

Out for delivery...

A Small in the 52 weighs 20oz, a small in the 64 weighs 34oz - we are talking off the scale stubborn….

@Joule said in IHSH-64 - Extra Heavy Jersey Western Sweat Shirt:

I got out my postal scale to give you guys a 'heft' difference:

IHSH-80 XL - 12.6 oz, 356g

IHSH-86 XL - 18.2 oz, 516g

IHSH-64 L - 36.4 oz, 1034 g

This is still mind boggling to me and I am super stoked to see mine in person later this week!

@neph93 yo that vest is so killer!!! Also I am digging the beard my dude.

@SelvedgeMack They always post as soon as they are made aware of a restock. It is for sure a grail item and I completely understand your eagerness to snag one. But the crew is super sharp and fast when reporting news regarding restocks. The wait is worth it.

@meatmarketdenim1 bro I’ve never been a forum kind of guy honestly, I’m still finding my way around here haha.

It just takes a little bit of time of messing around the forum. There are helpful tips and such on the homepage for new members. After a bit, navigating this forum will become second nature. There is a plethora of information, discussions, questions & answers, also feck ton of photos and new information is usually first found here about Iron Heart. So please make yourself at home here bud.
