Iron Heart IHSH-398-CAM Review — 11oz Corduroy Western Shirt in Camel
Iron Heart's corduroy western shirts don't come around much, and the camel colourway of the IHSH-398 has become one of the harder ones to track down often leaving shelves as soon as they land. We've still got stock here, across M through XXL.
Shop the IHSH-398-CAM — currently in stock in M, L, XL and XXL.
This one is built on Iron Heart's classic western block rather than the slimmer cut used on some of their newer shirts, so it wears closer to their regular work-shirt sizing. The camel tone is a genuinely versatile earth colour — easy to pair with indigo denim or darker corduroy trousers — and the 10 wale weight puts it right between a lightweight cord and something heavy enough to wear as a light jacket through autumn.
Fabric
The IHSH-398-CAM is made from 10 wale Japanese corduroy, woven with double-twisted weft yarns for extra heft and reactive dyed to hold its colour through repeated wear and washing — no fading or colour loss expected the way you might see on a garment-dyed piece.
Key fabric details:
- Made in Japan
- 10 wale Japanese corduroy, 100% cotton
- Reactive dyed warp and weft — no colour loss expected
- Tonal stitching and bar tacks
- One washed — no shrinkage expected
Cut & Construction
The construction is full Iron Heart western: flap patch pockets with snap fastenings, front and back yokes, and felled internal seams throughout — built to the same standard as the rest of their western shirt line, just dressed in corduroy instead of denim or flannel.
Construction details:
- Western shirt pattern
- Western-style flap patch pockets with snap fastenings
- Single, double and triple needle stitch construction
- Western-style front and back yokes
- Felled internal seams
- Tonal bobbin thread
If you've been trying to track this one down, this is one of the few places left still holding full-run stock in M through XXL.
