IHSH-177 - 18oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo
-
I'm a teacher, so I'm indoors most of my day. On those days I teach, I can wear a CPO. If I'm out and about with the kids, I can only wear them Oct through April. Give of take. Anyway, you should get both. Personally, the overdyed CPO is my favorite shirt or jacket from Iron Heart. If it's a choice between the 33 and an overdyed CPO, I'd take the latter. Moral of the story is that you should just own it all.

@Paul9221 Do you own the IHSH-177 in the same size as your IHSH-211 (duck CPO)? I just got the IHSH-211 in size large and I am happy with the length, do you find the 211 and 177 to be similar in length? I ask because I tried the overdyed CPO and though it was a good fit through the arms/shoulders/chest, it was quite short in the body for me.

Hrmmm, I'm usually mostly concerned about P2P and sleeve length so I can't recall how those two compared with regards to the total body length. Give me a few minutes and I'll compare them, but I did get them both in the same size.

The overdying process shrinks the fabric, [url=https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=15690]@dreigh. That could explain the sizing. Also, you can ask the crew for the "longest" in your size when you order. -
So I've had this for about 6ish months now and love it, quick question in the cooler months does anyone wear this with a lighter cotton shirt underneath? I've not ready to wear it under a coat juuuust yet?
-
I have the IHSH-178 which is the Overdyed version and never wear it without a shirt underneath, be it denim or UHF.
Works great with just about anything underneath in my opinion. I've got a North Face parka and find that the 178 is a bit too stiff to wear underneath, must need to wear it in more so it softens up

From T > light Flannel > UHF underneath. When it’s too cold, I wear a down vest above my nearly similar build 99. @DemonDenimHunter

Cheers guys, I've always worm mine with a T-shirt underneath and sometimes as a layer under a heavy black leather racer jacket if the weather is really cold.

Hey folks the chain stitch run-off at the bottom of my shirt has started to unravel if that makes sense, if I cut it will the seam come apart? Also where do you cut it from safely?
-
@DemonDenimHunter Not a problem at all and perfectly safe to snip off. If you examine the hem at the point of the chainstich runoff, then the side seam is either bar-tacked or sewn in to the fabirc via another stitch. Just snip off under that.
I've started snipping off most run-offs. I used to think they were charming, no I find them irritating.
-
IH mostly uses polyester or poly blend thread for construction, so if you're really worried about unraveling, after you clip it off, just hold a lighter to the loose ends and it will melt. Squash it down with your fingertip and it will never unravel.
I do this with all my shirts, since I really dislike chainstitch runoff.
