IHSB-BIGBUCK-BLK - Black Deerskin Western Shirt - The Big Buck
-
I have been layering this Big Buck over my IHJ-140-IG and it's perfect. Fades and patina are starting to take off with the deerskin. I wear it 12-16 hours a day. All the dang time I have it on. It seems to take on more character each day I wear it.

@Oaktavia that looks fucking amazing!
-
@louisbosco thanks dude! I have been wearing it ton since the party. It fits snugly over my Type 1, its perfect for that sort of layering.
One thing I was wondering about, it seems as the black fades away, the natural color is revealed on the outside. I don't see any brown like the photo examples of Haraki's. I am wondering if it first fades to the natural light yellow/tan and then from there darkens to brown with patina? @Giles is this correct?

No idea Stevie. All I know is that it started off deep black, and it is what it is now. I did not see it regularly between a and b.
Sorry

@Oaktavia It seems natural that your presumptions are correct though. Looking great.

@Mister_Brue I think that must be it. Nine years is a long time for all the patina to change the shirt to that brown color. I'm just scratching the surface. Pleased with the results so far, though. And faster than expected.

@Oaktavia how will you clean / wash it?
There is a detailed answer to this question a while back in this topic that @goosehd shared a few times. I plan to hold off on that as long as I can for now. I have spot cleaned gently and not gently with different results so far.

@Oaktavia Thank you. I saw his response, too. I have had very good results with a professional cleaner on my pale rider - I think I'll use them when I need this one cleaned, too.
