    Does anyone who has the N1 deck jacket find that the whipcord softens over Time? Just curious. Thanks

    Maybe so. Maybe not

      Yes it will soften but it will allways be a substantial Material with a little Bit of stiffness. Wearing my old N1 now and you can see, that it is not so stiff anymore.

        Thanks @Cole I’ve always admired your N1. I love the jacket, I just have no experience with whipcord. Thanks!

                It's limited to three cans if I order it myself (plus they add 16 quid for shipping)… I'd rather get four and then do some beertrade for the money cause I'm broke  😞 Like: I can send you a box full of legit great beers in exchange...

                          Maybe it's easier if I just have three shipped to you… Would that work?..  😘

                                Has anyone ever washed the loving hell out of a pair of the flagship signature 21oz IH denim?

                                I'm considering buying a new pair to intentionally wash like crazy (and potentially even dry) for the heavily washed look, and I'm curious what to expect in terms of shrinkage with the signature 21oz denim. Trying to decide if it makes sense to size up and if so, by how much.

                                Any thoughts or experiences?

                                  I wash and dry all my IH jeans on the regular. I don’t think sizing up would be necessary on the 21oz. There’s a little shrink, but a lot of stretch

                                    I also wash all my IH jeans about every 10 days or so. Some go in the drier some don't. My 5 year old 555-01s can be seen on that thread. I'm much more into a Vintage type of fade than a Contrasty one.

                                      Info appreciated!

                                      @Jett129 Do you size up to account for shrinkage?

                                        Nope,Because even if it tightens up in the drier,the 21OZ denim stretches right back out. You need to account for shrinkage in the length,so I go about .5 inch longer.

                                          For the look you are after try a pair of the 'N' natural indigo/organic cotton denim, for example :

                                          https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/ih-555n.html

                                          Mine have shrunk about a half size with a quite a few washes now…
