I didn't take measurements and have only washed it once, but my XL didn't seem to shrink after a short spin, 30 degree cycle. FWIW, I'm 6'3 and was also really hoping it wouldn't lose length, so I was looking out for it.

Very good. I have heard horror stories with the strike gold loopwheeled ones shrinking 4" in length.
Cold wash and air tumble should work!

I didn't notice much shrinkage in my XL, but I hang dry. 2+ years and it's my favorite sweat.

My M-42 Service Shoes after about 6 months of strong wear, maybe 3-4x a week for work and play…. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone. They aren't terrible boots, but at the price point, they absolutely aren't worth it. Maybe they were built intentionally, with "wabisabi" in mind, idk... I don't feel they should be THIS bad after such a short time, considering the price tag. While ACTUALLY in the Army, I had boot that cost a quarter of the price that I wore 10x harder, and they faired better than these.

Can anyone help with this issue?
My BR & WG MA-1 has just decided to have a melt down. I took the jacket off my clothing rail and pulled on the pull tab to lower the slider in order to undo the jacket and remove it from the coat hanger before popping it onto my good self and the pull tab came away from the slider, see below;
I have inspected the parts and put them back together however the integrity of the unit has gone so the pull tab immediately comes away from the slider.
Can anyone advise me on where / who my first point of contact should be, when trying to get this issue resolved ?
I will cross post this in Random questions to which you seek an answer. Thanks in advance, Barcley

Panic over, for now at least. I found the missing brass press fit washer that I pressed back into place. However, I don't trust the (square) brass washer in question. I am also a little disappointed at how flimsy the zipper set up is . . . . . Sure IH zippers are more solid than this particulat crown zipper . . .

@den1mhead an old post I know, but how did that zip pull work out?
I'm visiting the showroom in Devon on Friday and aiming to pick up a BR M65 jacket and it has the same 68 era wire zip pull. I wanted an exact repro M65, but couldn't justify paying 'leather jacket money for a Real Mccoys!
