Top quality & serious high-end workwear/denim-related stuff always gets my attention...2 of my fave brands (along w/ GUSTIN, naturellement!)....................
Indigofera. Swedish company sewing up a lot of stuff in Portugal. I love (& own) some of this Euro stuff... Overpriced? Maybe, but like IH gear (& prices), the quality, durability, concepts & design are v. impressive: www.indigoferajeans.com/2013/freewheelers. These guys are 'out there'. Another Japanese company. Have 1 of their shirts - v. beautiful. Amazing stuff: www.freewheelers.co.jp/english/index.html

Anyone else have experience with this brand? I'm looking to grab the Root Dyed Hickory Stripe and Gunpowder Fargo shirts, but the measurements seem wonky. I'm comparing the Indigofera medium to an IH medium, and they are FAR off.....

I have the Indigofera - Indigo Hickory Fargo shirt. Great construction and color - I feel like you can wear this with blue or black denim. Though they say the stripes are indigo dyed it looks more black in person. It definitely fits larger than most brands. I have a size L, and these are post warm soak measurements:
P2P: 24.5 Shoulder: 19.5 Arm: 27.25
The tag does recommend washing hot and throwing in the dryer, and says to expect 5% shrinkage. I needed the size L mainly for the shoulders, as it's a little big in the chest. I wear it as a shirt jacket, so the fit still looks fine. I do plan on washing and drying again to get it a little smaller.

I bought it at Vater & Sohn when I was visiting Hamburg a few months back for work. V&S is a great shop - I actually went in to check out their IH selection but really liked the Indigofera stuff. I don't think they have an online store but you might be able to order by phone.

I think it was 170 Euro, so about $190. Best thing was free shipping since I was already in Hamburg! Definitely not worth 200 pounds in my opinion. Standard & Strange (Oakland) carries Indigofera and offers free shipping on anything over $150: standardandstrange.com/collections/indigofera

I like the brown hickory stripe. Nice looking. Interesting that it's made in Portugal. I've been tempted to get this But have resisted so far.

What do you guys think of this shirt? i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTM1OFg5NzU=/z/lNUAAOSw7aBVDnFR/$_1.JPGI've been looking for a nicer version of my 5Brothers red buffalo plaid. Came across this one for $125. I'm just not sure about the bottom. Usually there are 7 (or 8) buttons on a work shirt. This is a button up but kind only mimics a pop/pull over.

It looks good and the buttons give it a unique touch. From that photo it looks pretty long, like it's meant to be tucked. That could be a big factor based on how you like to wear your shirts.

A woman wearing just that would be awesome. A man, no.

A woman wearing just that would be awesome. A man, no. And The Search Continues. Any suggestions? Red, Buffalo Plaid, run off, 2 pocket (not necessarily flaps but better), mid weight.
