thanks!!. they're still somewhat stiff. so tempted to put them in the wash now to soften them. but might hold for abit longer.

[Max Power]

If you do, please let me know wether it shrunk much.

[louisbosco]

cheers i will if i do..

@Max Power

so i finally gave my 101J a warm wash. i felt overall the denim shrunk a little more. fits a lot better now and the denim has soften up a lot as well.

i don't have measurements, so for comparison, a photo when i first had them..

I think a wash was a good call. Looks much better on you [emoji106]
BTW, that Goros set up is jawdropping!

Looking great! The 18 oz gets even better and better after every wash.

thanks guys. i really love the fit of it now too. it doesn't feel too "cardboardish" now and more hugging fit, which i how i like my jackets.

Thanks @Anesthetist quite a basic set up compared to many others out there. that was over a year ago i think. i've since added a stoplight co in between the feathers. the queue of goros render my unable to get my desired feather and i refuse to pay resale price which is at it's highest point now..

Looks great @louisbosco . And you can button it! with slack! :o  wtf!

[Max Power]

Thanks louis for the update. I'm worried about the shrinkage but am glad to hear it softens up.

This denim jacket calls my name like no other has before… Strangely, I justify not buying it because I have a Sugar Cane type 2 already.

Absolutely incomparable. I might have to sell some UHF's to make some room for this.

don't worry too much. it's slightly minimal. but then again, it all depends how your current fit of your jacket is now.

cheers @steelworker i'm starting to love it more now with this fit.
