Hi! New here. Got a question. Just backed a Large Heavyweight Indigo tee. I know these are basically the same as 3Sixteen's tees, so what's so special about these vs their normal weight tees? Or just other tees in general? I have heard a lot of acclaim around these but still have no idea. Briefly: the weight is 9 oz, so about twice as heavy as an "average" tshirt, the indigo dye means they will fade over time based on how your individual wear pattern, and they are about a third to half of the price of the nearest comparable tshirt.

I believe the double loop is only for us big guys (36" and bigger) 37" is where they start adding it. Fat-shaming bastards!

My 46 is getting delivered today (after a couple days of forgetting how to put the little pink signature slip back in the mailbox). I'll let you know how the XXXL fits--seems like you're about a size down from me in all your other IH tops. Nice! Thanks! Yes it seems I am one size down usually Posted some fit pics in IH general discussion. XXXL fits me perfectly.

Ah, damn, you're right! I was so busy looking at the actually-decent yokes (which has to be a fluke, right?) that I didn't catch the abhorrent front alignment. Fingers crossed that the real deal isn't that bad, or back it goes! You have a whole level of confidence in them that I just don't. If you can't sew a sample, you surely aren't going to sew a few hundred correctly. They should just randomly skew all of the panels. "Confidence" is a bit strong...I prefer "risk-taking behavior."

Oh red Western, your right side has clearly never met your left side. Just pathetic. Nice to sew up a sample, but maybe don't let the Labradoodle do it? And nice try with no head on shots, but I'm watching you, always watching... Edit - Oh holy shit, the right chest is flipped from the left and the sleeves, but matches the back and the yoke. Awesome! Ah, damn, you're right! I was so busy looking at the actually-decent yokes (which has to be a fluke, right?) that I didn't catch the abhorrent front alignment.

Harvest plaid looks pretty solid and might be worth a flyer, which I definitely didn't think I'd be saying about a G western, based on the first several drops. Seeing this sewn up, shockingly, swayed me on this one.
Oil-washed T looks pretty interesting, too.

Came here to post this about 15 mins after you earlier today, after snagging a pair. This place slays me. In that good way. Right there was nothing I wanted. Until that popped up for such a good deal. And a IHJ-46 My 46 is getting delivered today (after a couple days of forgetting how to put the little pink signature slip back in the mailbox). I'll let you know how the XXXL fits--seems like you're about a size down from me in all your other IH tops.

I'd say the 707s fit a little snugger than the 816s, but they are not slim fit, by any means. On me, a little looser than my 666xhs, both in 36. I'd agree with that...a little snugger but both are straight fits like you said. My 33 707's are probably a little slimmer than my 33 816's but not enough to where I would need to size differently. Totally agree. Size the same.

If you're swimming in the 634 then the 707 and 816 will probably be too big for you as well. They are similar fits. Too bad, those are sick. Hopefully the 716s will work. Have you guys got confirmation on your new chino orders? I'd say the 707s fit a little snugger than the 816s, but they are not slim fit, by any means. On me, a little looser than my 666xhs, both in 36.

northcoast thanks for that heads up! Love the shoes and I dont think I've ever received an online order this fast. Went with the cognac bison Calgarys. So comfortable right out of the box.

Iron Heart shirt 137 is just what i hoped It's great, isn't it? I thought I wanted the blue, but I'm maybe happier that it wasn't available and I got the yellow. Edit: ha! Just realized this was in G.

would you mind taking a couple pictures of the natural IRL? I'd likely just complain about the price and not buy them if they ever actually do a horween essex variant, so I'm considering the Italian naturals. I can mos def take some pictures. exophobe, posted in new arrivals. They are going to be amazing when they've had a day or two of breaking-in.

Those are great looking. I do like the brass buckles and the finish on those looks impeccable. This thread reminds me, last night I was looking at the Wesco Instagram page and noticed these which I think are gray roughout. Never saw the color before, I really like gray shoes but such a pita to keep clean. Those veg tan engineers...

Funny I ordered that shirt then I canceled it. Size may have been fine but the skew would have pissed me off I did the same thing when they first came out. Ordered a Green XL from RB then cancelled it. Then the enablers got a hold of me and I caved and ordered on again. Gotcha! I love the blue so much that I, paradoxically, am trying to limit how much I wear it. Both are pretty classic colorways.
