I bought this shirt from eBay. Its a IHSH-330-ODG 9oz Raised Whipcord.

On the ebay photos it didn't look that bad and thought it just needed a good iron, but in hand it has noticeable white crease marks. It looks likes its been washed and left at the bottom of the washing pile. Its a shame as it's a nice shirt and a great fit for me.

Does anyone know if I was to dye it at home it would cover these marks?
Is there a colour that would work best over green?

I've never dyed any clothing before so have no idea what I'm doing, but I read somewhere its relatively easy with a Dylon pod in the washing machine.

Any advice appreciated!

@endo Thanks, I have ordered a Dylon Olive Green, and will see what happens

Can anyone ID this jacket?

Thanks, a size L just popped up on eBay (I'm searching for a Black/Black N1 Deck Jacket). I was tempted but decided to leave it!

@Giles Thank you

I need to wash this jacket for the first time, it’s overdue! Label says 40 machine wash and I was going to do in the machine on a 40 gentle cycle - is this the best thing to do?

Any thoughts or advice appreciated!

Thanks for the input.

Realistically I would be wearing with a t shirt 90% of the time. I'm going to try on again but think you might be right on the sizing. Its like new and quite stiff, so I think that might make it feel smaller than it actually is.

Now, just the small issue if finding a size 40!

Or am I just being a wuss and this how the sleeves are meant to be?

First post..

I recently picked up a IH-101J size 42, its a grail for me and love it. My first selvage denim jacket.

I'm 5'11, around 87kg. It fits well in the body and wouldn't want to go any smaller, as wouldn't be able to layer at all. Picture is just with a T-Shirt.

The issue is the sleeves are a bit too long and I find it quite annoying. I don't think I have particularly short arms and not an issue I typically have with other jackets. I would say about 2 inches too long. When cuffed length feels right.

1. I have read some comments to say sleeves get shorter when you wear due to bunching. I don't really see how its possible to shorten significantly, but realistically does anyone know how much can I expect to loose?

2. Can anyone recommend a company in the UK where I can send the jacket to reduce the length of the sleeves by 2 inches? I don't think I could trust my local tailor. Or is this a terrible idea, given point 1.

Thanks for any advise!
