IHSH-162 - Black or Olive 12oz Cotton Swedish Serge CPO Style Shirt

[Max Power]

Cool to read Dr. Pat's Reviews, just like in the old days. I agree on the snaps, they are too big and loud on shirts in general in for my personal taste.

@Shoreman:

You've washed it quite a few times considering  the amount of wears. Was this the result of wanting to achieve some shrinkage or do you not wear a shirt underneath or just because you damn-well felt like it?

This shirt didn't shrink in the wash and I didn't expect it to.  I washed it once because it needed it, once because I wanted to take in on vacation with me, and once because I spilled something on it.

I always wear a t-shirt underneath my shirts.  With shirts that require a gentle wash due to fades I find it better to be proactive in terms of washing.  I don't sweat very much but at some point my IHSH-08 started to smell after not washing it for a very long time.  It took a lot of effort to get it clean again.  I first rubbed liquid soap in the armpits but this left a white residue.  Washing it on the gentle cycle many times did not get rid of the residue.  I tried soaking it in vinegar and this removed the excess soap.

I'm home for Christmas and have some time to kill.

I actually like the big snaps but I would prefer them to be silver instead of bronze.  I wonder if aluminium would be a suitable material.

They would age nicely, indeed.

I like the snaps as is, one of my favorite details on this one.

Just my 2 cents.

Since I believe "shackets" are the great thing ever made, I'm a bit surprised that this thread isn't 100 pages long already.

Anyways,

A few pics to help push some people onto the bandwagon

Great Kit!

The IHSH-162 has probably been my most worn shirt over the winter.

Keep up that matching!

Thanks BP! Such versatility.
Dare we ask for other fabrics, say duck or wabash?
Cheers!
