@Kfactor That is about as good as it gets right there ~ enjoy in good health!

[Kfactor]

@Denman-John thank you. Can’t wait to get it all broken in

[Cskarev]

Will the CPO shirt also be part of the Wabash shirts restocking that is due imminently?

[Alex]

No, sorry. It will come back though

[fuzzybunnies]

Thinking about picking one of these up second-hand! This fabric looks so lovely. How is it in hotter weather? living in Texas so wondering if I can wear in 70 or 80 degrees

[Anesthetist]

@fuzzybunnies maybe as a shacket in the 70’s but I wouldnt try it much warmer

[Matt]

Mine gets no wear in the 70’s. This one lives in the winter wear section of my shirt closet.

[fuzzybunnies]

@Matt Gotcha. Thanks for the insight

[Matt]

It’s just a pretty tight weave and at 12 oz I sweat even on cold days if I’m in a heated place. There is a lighter weight Wabash out there, though not in cpo form, that you might be able to find on eBay, Grailed or here in the forum. It’s probably more TX friendly.

[Matt]

But as @Anesthetist said of you find yourself in need of a jacket on cold nights or on trips to slightly colder climates this would be a great option.

Getting put to work, while standing on top of moving trains

[fuzzybunnies]

@Kfactor looking very nice. Almost looks black

[Kfactor]

@fuzzybunnies might just be the lighting. I’ll add an outdoor pic from today too after work

[Kfactor]

Here’s is a quick pic. May be more accurate color of the shirt.

Got to zoom in to Tim Heidecker and Co. podcast “Office Hours live” yesterday while wearing my dusty and beloved Wabash CPO!
They liked it!

[Aetas]

Absolutely wonderful @Kfactor and @Smiladon !
Now I need to know why and how your CPO’s get so dusty ;-)?

[Kfactor]

@Aetas I work at a grain elevator. This past week I have been riding on top of moving trains, while loading them with corn (tens of thousands of pounds of corn). There is a ton of dust that comes up as the spouts load the train cars.

@Aetas
And I’m a rural mailman in northern Iowa, traveling 40 miles on gravel roads in 0% humidity 🥸

[Aetas]

Two work stories, predestinated to picture dusty IH gear in action…
Please show us more @Smiladon and @Kfactor

Can't go wrong with the 227 gents.
