A true tribute to early American workwear, The Railroad Wabash is built from 13oz rope-dyed selvedge denim with woven dot stripes—just like the shirts worn by railroad brakemen and conductors over a century ago. Stiff at first, but quick to mold to your body, this shirt delivers beautiful fades and timeless style.

Woven from 100% Australian premium cotton and rope-dyed in deep double indigo, it features a crisp texture and a subtle red selvedge ID. The iconic “Wabash dots” are woven directly into the fabric—not printed or dyed—ensuring the shirt ages with rich contrast and depth.

Whether you’re pairing it with raw denim jeans or layering it for the tracks ahead, this Western-cut classic belongs in every denimhead’s rotation.

Johan is 180 cm tall and wears size Medium.

  1. Rated 5 out of 5

    This fabric is fantastic. Looks almost black at first (unused) and the indigo is very deep. After quite heavy use for 6 months it’s really starting to develop and you can see how awesome fades this will produce further down the road.This is a 5star fabric for sure.

    Really tight weave, almost like canvas, but absolutely beautiful. Ordered mine with copper snaps and copper thread and always get people asking questions where I got it from. Fades took time to appear (six months of fairly frequent wear and no soak/washing) and came through first as electric blue then fading further to light blue and then white. You could go with any customisation with shirt and it wouldn’t fail. It’s a stunner.

    Went for a short sleeved version, it’s maybe 2-seasons suitable, spring and autumn (“fall” for those that prefer). Hopefully once fully broken in I can do cooler summer days (here in Switzerland) but its too heavy for a hot day.

    Fit & quality all spot-on, and as new it looks pretty dressy! Working go on making it less so, with some wear & tear (well, hopefully not) and some nice fading!

    Enjoy the journey!
