@matt_rost Definitely bud .. yours is looking great

I think that letting the shirt age slowly is the best way to do it (in the long run). Your Pale Rider shows it very well

@Jcaz6996 that is the first sample, yes. The second sample is treated with something to help it take colour on faster. We also tried mustang pasting it, to see how that worked, but the test was not good, so all we know now is what not to reccomend

And is the Extractor Going to be the same leather ?

Yes, the Italian Horse is no longer available

[FlavourFade]

@Alex is a leather western shirt in other colors than natural an option for you? Would love some teacore or indigo

[Alex]

@FlavourFade could well be

[FlavourFade]

@Alex so I have to save up for two 1.5k shirts shit

[Neru-6]

@denim-dawg nice one

[DeeDee85]

@FlavourFade indigo dipped pale rider? Jesus Christ

[FlavourFade]

@DeeDee85 yeah or black overdyed green leather like the "matcha core" from sagara

[Beecherarts]

Does anyone have an issues with their shoulders riding up like this? I havent worn mine out yet, but are these shoulders going to settle down a bit with wear? Its really concerning and looks ridiculous when I have it buttoned up.

[DeeDee85]

@Beecherarts mine was exactly the same yes.. I ended up selling mine on but I’m pretty sure most owners of these have said the shoulders do relax in time

[Tobi]

@Beecherarts I have the previous version with different leather, and although it got better, the shoulder hump never fully settled. The shirt is a bit too tight across the shoulders for me now, so not getting any wear....

@Beecherarts
I have all 3 westerns and they all 3 have it to some degree. So far they have mild wear and has not settled down. At first I thought it was from hangers but I’m not totally sure I agree with that after looking at it more

[Beecherarts]

@Tobi Oh no, now I don’t know what to do. I’m scared to wear it, afraid that the shoulders might never shape to me. Iron heart did mention I could exchange it for a big buck, and pay the difference. But I’m torn because since this is the last brand new one of the old version, I’d like to keep it.

[Beecherarts]

@kkibbey23 Which ones do you have? Do you have a big buck?

[kkibbey23]

Both big bucks and the original leather on the pale rider.

[Beecherarts]

How do you guys think this fits for me???

[Mister_Brue]

@Beecherarts I wouldn’t have noticed it in these pics if you hadn’t pointed it out in the first picture you posted. It looks great.

I guess it depends if you are comfortable wearing it (physically and mentally ). Personally I tried one on in the summer, and decided it wasn’t for me. I’m eyeing up a Big Buck too.

Good luck; these sorts of decisions aren’t easy. ️
