IHSH-235-BLK - 13oz Military Serge Western Shirt - Black

[Jcaz6996]

That’s a beauty…
Maybe BLK serge won’t fade like that then . Why do you think mine has bronze fade in areas ? Sun ?

[Giles]

Certain black dyes do "fade" to brown in the sun.  Our superblack definitely does…..

Thought I’d throw a picture of mine up. It’s crooked on the hanger,not the pockets.

Thanks for posting @Jett129. That looks really nice.

Is this alright to throw in the wash? Or will it marble like SBG?

[Daniel San]

soak it before washing, make sure it’s completely wet .
low or no spin and turn inside out .
if you do so , there should be no "problems "
at all .

@trvn17 not marble per se, but supposedly serge can react quite unpredictably when washed. I've seen some people report a sort of rusty discoloration (not necessarily a bad thing) and others a substantial level of fading around the seems and high tension areas. My IHSH-235 remains unwashed after almost a year, but I'll be pre-soaking beforehand and washing inside out when the time comes as I wanna maintain a fresh look. If you're all about that vintage, worn in look you can afford to be a little less precious with how you wash it. It's gonna remain a beautiful shirt regardless, so no need to over think things.

Got it. I was thinking of throwing it in the wash to soften it up some to get a worn in feel quicker

@trvn17 whatever works for you! I personally love that crispy stiffness but I can see how it could be off-putting for some people.

Serge is amazing in my opinion!

[Nocturama]

Needed a black shirt, and have gone with the serge - very crispy, but feeling bullet-proof! Think I checked every measurement on every black shirt, at least twice, but the think the fit is about spot on for what I was after.

Edit: should add for reference, this is an XXL - I am 188cm and just over 200lbs.

@Nocturama the fit is killer! And indeed serge is very crispy!

Hoping to jump on one of these soon! On my list, one of many!

Got this pimped with pearl snaps during the sale, love it!

Hello.
Do you plan to release 13oz Military Serge Shirt - Indigo?

[Alex]

No plans to do that, no

@T4920 the pearl snaps really look good. Nicely done.
