That’s so cool! Perfect garment for those cuffs, well paired @den1mhead .
If I ever get to meet you at some IH event, I sure hope you’ll be wearing it so I get to personally see it.
Cheers buddy

Bought a couple of liberty cuffs ages ago that I planned to put on my IHW-01 but never got round to it. I recently acquired a MFSC Drover Blouse in Denim and this jacket seemed like the perfect home for the liberty cuffs . . .
Looks sharp @den1mhead.

Cheers @steelworker, figured you appreciate this modification

I'd like to offer a shout out to Railcar Fine Goods. I have a good problem: I have lost a ton of weight and despite age and gravity, I'm back (mostly). That said, my IHs have been worn to daily perfection–-softer, fades, good things---but are now far too big. I've bought a few new pair because I can't live without 634s. I also just received a pair downsized by Railcar. No diaper butt, proper waist, I really couldn't be happier. They did a great job.

I have this old shirt that I bought second hand from a member here about 7 or 8 years ago, so I don't even know which model it is, but it was looking pretty badly faded and needed some help. Yesterday I mixed up my natural indigo dye and breathed new life into the shirt. Good as new!

Nice one, @seawolf. I think I have the same denim in a western and was thinking of selling it. Now I'm going to look into doing the same.

I used this kit https://amzn.to/2MZAlqd and it was great. Really great instructions and just an overall pleasant experience.

Can't see that on amazon uk, but I did find http://www.wildcolours.co.uk/html/indigo.html. It seems far too complicated, though. I looked at their red dye and that was even more involved.

Nice job- I should try that some day.

@seawolf WOW! Amazing transformation! Well done.

Recommendations for repair shops in Scotland? Crotch has gone in my 555n's and about to go on my 555-03's.

Thanks Alex, sending to IH was originally my plan, then I thought that if there was a reliable place nearby and not too expensive, I might be quicker doing a drop off - pick up thing.

That’s an IHSH-26 and it’s a great shirt. I’ve had my OD version for almost 10 years now and besides the fading it looks new. Great dye job, that’s a rare shirt that deserves some wear!
