IHSH-27 - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt

I washed it once or twice upon purchase just to shrink and soften it up some. I haven't kept track of how many washes its had, though. I'm not a big fan of micromanaging how I wear/wash clothes. Just wash it when it stinks or smells. But if I were to guess, I'd say at least 4-5 washes.

Here's your plan:
Find a school / facility in your area that works with kids with disabilities. They need money. Talk to someone there, find a specific need they have, be it toys for a rec room, art supplies, whatever.
Then approach your boss and propose a Denim for Disabilities day. Employees get to pay for the privilege to wear denim to work, be it a $1 or $5 per day, maybe on Fridays, maybe weekends, whatever.
Then you have some stickers or badges or whatever that say Denim for Disabilities. Who's gonna complain about that?
You get to wear your IH denim to work. Kids with disabilities get money. We get to see evo.
That's a win-win-win situation, which is the best kind of situation.

jaco, that sounds like a plan.
Jestre, great work on this shirt. You are almost convincing me to get one.

Sure to work, unless your boss is a douche bag.
We did it at work (hospital). Two weeks. $1/day. I wore my IH jeans for 10 straight days. Every once in a while someone would do a double take, but once they saw the sticker it was cool.
Extra bonus occurred as well… a few days I went full tux, wore jeans and my 08 or 27 shirt... it was a bit of a joke, I even paid extra those days to wear double denim, but I set a denim-shirt groundwork, and now I'll wear those shirts every once in a while with chinos, usually Fridays, and nobody bothers me about it.
