      UHFs seldom really smell. So, if they feel and smell fresh, you must not wash them (although I never really understood the "don't wear as Long as possible" tag). If you wash them just by Hand, they will retain their original look, machine washing might cause some fuzziness (is that a word?).

          You're obviously not a smelly guy, Max. I obviously am. If I don't rotate my UHF's after about 10-15 wears, they smell of old sweat.

          I don't get that tag, either. At least not on UHF's. I guess it ends up on all shirts but is more relevant for the denim shirts?

          Fuzziness is definitely a thing 😃

                I usually wash my shirts by hand, and I generally follow Mister Freedom's advice:  "Launder when hygiene dictates and common sense prevails".

                      Haha, thanks for all the great advice, especially from the "wash your shirt if it reeks" contingent!

                      Intuitively and just from initial experience I am with neph93 in that I find rotation btw UHF shirts and giving them plenty of opportunity to air out can extend the "reekless" lifespan by quite a bit.

                      Thanks also to Maxpower for the recommendation to stick to hand wash to retain the original look. Will definitely keep that in mind.

                      Cheers

                          joined the club - just couldn't resist. Usually when they get down to the last one in my size, the resolve breaks.  However, I REALLY do wear the UHFs a lot in the cooler months… and this one does seem pretty special... and I really wanted it.... and...........  😞

                              My fit definitely tightened up a bit even with a cold soak, line dry, tumble fluff and warm iron haha

                              I can see this color just getting better and better with every wash!

                                      @Appfaff thanks! They are actually the Gelt from Moscot.
                                      I've got a few different styles from them and they're all very nice.
