UES "BD Oxford Shirt" in both white and indigo light. Many brands offer versions of the classic Oxford shirt, but none get it quite like UES. The fabric, fit, details create the perfect design. I would encourage anyone to add this beautiful and versatile shirt to your wardrobe. Perfectly made for all occasions casual to formal. UES retains that traditional magic and quality we all love and appreciate.

@futura love those shorts, and really love everything UES does. I think the fit and style is perfect.

I had a good feeling about this years drop before reading Sam's reaffirming post.

@derek111 it’s a beautiful texture, color, fabric. Regular photos appear more like a grey or light blue oxford type shirt. Much thicker, and cool design with the extra elbow / forearm layer. Overall nice heft and weight to it. I would definitely size up in this shirt.

I'm excited about this fabric, hoping to see it in the future on some other jackets or pants even. Love it.

@AdamJ work shirts with copper snaps are the IH gems.

@denami amazing, let us know after the wash. Do you think the black and indigo feel the same weight and heft? I have yet to find a close second to my SH sashiko ori indigo shirt. It's just the best design and fabric hands down. I'm going to have to pursue a black one next time around. Everything is harder to get now, it seems like almost a degree of luck getting in on certain releases and checkout. Congrats on another great piece!

@hgering27 bullet proof, nice!

@tenuin beautiful shirt, congrats! what is your height and weight in reference to your size 3 fit? Looks great!

@northsouthdenimguy Thank you. Good feedback, I was glad to see him do another release pre-order so I could grab a pair. This will be a good addition to my pants. I'm really only trying to buy 1-2 pants a year, and 4-5 shirts/jackets at most. Anything else just feels like over consumption.

Always love these Alcan double front pants from a few years back. Great for winter snow, muck, and mire.

@northsouthdenimguy new pants look good, how is the waist feel and what is your typical waist measurement?

Picked up an XL for a good versatile technical jacket. I was originally going to grab the IH-153 Primaloft quilted Riders jacket, but it was pushed back a year due to some production issues. I figured I'll get one next year, and these are different enough and serve slightly different purposes. Love this jacket, and actually very warm with the fleece lining throughout. The Cordura shell fabric is impressive and will be a great jacket for riding my motorcycle. As with many IH jackets, the pockets and collar are top notch. This is certainly a "collar up" jacket and will get tons of use this winter. Special thanks to ISP for amazing customer service. Ready for the snow storm here in the midwest.

@Johnnyutah247 its always a bit of a surprise fit, and you can't go wrong. it ends up being the perfect fit shirt or perfect fit overshirt, and either way is great. share some pics and update.

@Northman Home Run! This is one of the best CPO's, and just gets better with time as the color and fabric softens. Amazing fabric, and twill lining. Fit looks great!

@SKT Really cool jacket, and unique design. I think it looks great, and you could always dial in the fit if you want with hot wash, and if you need a bit more a hot dry. Great choice!

sizing is tricky indeed, mine ended up an overshirt / jacket (my fault with getting wrong size a while back). Sleeves are traditionally a bit longer than usual (at least on mine) but all good. Sometimes we just acquire enough (too much) clothing and everything has it's perfect place and function.

@corralitos I sized up from normal XXL to XXXL and should have stayed. This is not a western CPO so pay close attention to measurements chest & shoulders.

@Crease Very unique fades and texture. Look great!
