IHSH-235-BLK - 13oz Military Serge Western Shirt - Black

[Daniel San]

soak it before washing, make sure it’s completely wet .
low or no spin and turn inside out .
if you do so , there should be no "problems "
at all .

@trvn17 not marble per se, but supposedly serge can react quite unpredictably when washed. I've seen some people report a sort of rusty discoloration (not necessarily a bad thing) and others a substantial level of fading around the seems and high tension areas. My IHSH-235 remains unwashed after almost a year, but I'll be pre-soaking beforehand and washing inside out when the time comes as I wanna maintain a fresh look. If you're all about that vintage, worn in look you can afford to be a little less precious with how you wash it. It's gonna remain a beautiful shirt regardless, so no need to over think things.

Got it. I was thinking of throwing it in the wash to soften it up some to get a worn in feel quicker

[T4920]

@trvn17 whatever works for you! I personally love that crispy stiffness but I can see how it could be off-putting for some people.

Serge is amazing in my opinion!

Needed a black shirt, and have gone with the serge - very crispy, but feeling bullet-proof! Think I checked every measurement on every black shirt, at least twice, but the think the fit is about spot on for what I was after.

Edit: should add for reference, this is an XXL - I am 188cm and just over 200lbs.

@Nocturama the fit is killer! And indeed serge is very crispy!

Hoping to jump on one of these soon! On my list, one of many!

Got this pimped with pearl snaps during the sale, love it!

Hello.
Do you plan to release 13oz Military Serge Shirt - Indigo?

[Alex]

No plans to do that, no

[Bums_Fan]

@T4920 the pearl snaps really look good. Nicely done.

Washed the green version twice and it gets better every time! There is some marbeling going on, but not washing a cotton shirt is a no-go for me...

[T4920]

@Tobi any shrinkage? Tempted to give my black one a hot wash and dry to tighten things up..

[Tobi]

@T4920 a little.. but not much. Wash 30c and short with the usual precautions though...

@Jcaz6996 hey man! Tbh not for now atm my wabash keeps drawing my attention with my IHJ-72. It’s a shame i know but i’m still fading! Your 19oz lefty looks killer dude!

[Jcaz6996]

All good mate you still in RR ?
Thanks it’s really starting to evolve nicely just over 3 months of wear can’t wait to see what it looks like after another 9months

[A Former User]

Yeah 19oz lefty is the best jacket imo. I’m very happy with mine for sure! It’s in rotation with my type II. I’m gonna fade those like hell i’m sure your jacket will be insane! You are building a amazing empire of fades! How’s your pale rider btw?
