Alright guys, I keep looking at these shirts and I swear I am about to cave...but I can't decide which one to cop so I wanted to get your opinion. A lot of Iron Heart fans know this fabric so these are the two shirts I am looking at and they are made from the same fabric only one is in a Work Shirt cut with aluminum buttons and the other in a Western Shirt cut with snaps. Work Shirt www.ironheart.co.uk/shirting/ihsh-68-blk.htmlWestern Shirt www.ironheart.co.uk/shirting/ihsh-62-blk.htmlplease help me decide here....I keep leaning towards the western on this one for some reason...but then the work shirt looks cool too. |

Why not indigo? I love the way the indigo fades vs. the black.

I would think the cleaner design of the workshirt is the way to go, but why oh why doesn't it have snaps? Snaps and heavy shirting just go together, it sucks buttoning 10oz+ fabric. Plus, the fabric shots on the Western look better, for some reason. |

Hey, almost covers VAT!
Yeah, the indigo Wabash Workshirt would get me vote. Don't really like the black Wabash.

Say I decided to buy the western version of this shirt for example....When this shirt was originally dropped it was 365 bucks, but now with the prices being reduced due to the weak yen and a 12% off sale I can pick up the same shirt for 286 bucks including shipping. Yeah, I know...it's still 286 bucks, but just sayin. |

Well, if they just operated like an honest vendor, it would be $260 any day of the year for US customers.

I think it looks better in the western shirt. Though, you could just wait for the Saturday sale and get both!

I got my 62-indigo from rakuten. $175 shipped if I recall. Then I got wacked with my international money exchange fees of like $5. Hard to beat.
I'm starting to get sick of these $300 shirts.

I know...trust me I've debated just getting the indigo...and the sizing on the XL Indigo is damn near perfect for me. |

I also like how the dots on the black are beige and not white like on the indigo.

Well it looks like the western version is the popular vote so far.
btw, side note...just realized my typo on the poll title. It should read Work Shirt or Western Shirt, not Work Shirt of Western Shirt..but I'm sure everyone figured that out.

TBH, I think the buttons on the work shirt look cheap, spoiling the whole look. I think they dropped the ball there, as snaps would have been ideal.
I say go with your gut, and if in doubt buy both.

davelewis, you're dead right. We were stunned at how beautiful and impressive the Lower Falls area is. It must be one of the most awe-inspiring sights I've ever seen. ickes, sorry for the highjack. My vote's with the Western, but maybe the work shirt could be "pimped", as IHUK describe it.

If it was I'd be pimpin it with snaps for sure. |

ickes, if you prefer workshirt styling then crack it!!! My opinion's that indigo & black are both great fabrics, both western & workshirt styles are cool, the IH buttons will work & be cool...but, imo, ya gotta wear it heaps & then it starts to be extraordinary...(voted western, dig mine)

I just think that Western fabric looks so much better, even though I'd prefer it without the shoulder points. |
