      …or I might go ahead and wash as well just to be sure. 😃 Post-wash measurements would be met with fanfares and excessive applauds!

      Anyway, I'll go ahead and wear as-is for today. 😎

                    Good choice, neph!

                    Such a lovely shirt! Those silver nips do add some nice flavour to it…

                      Good fit, you got it just right. 😎 Did you get around to taking the post-wash measurements?

                        Thank you and no, I did not, it slipped my mind. I’ll do it this weekend and tag you with the results.

                          TIA! I didn't mean to push the agenda but seeing your fit-pic made me rethink my current non-wash stance…

                          Plus adding to the denim-science is never a futile undertaking, like.

                              Ok… the before is based on Alex’s measurements of the same shirt, the after is after a 40C wash with low spin and air dry. It’s all in centimetres. Because Europe.

                                Thanks a ton! For you it was obviously worth it as the post-wash fit looks like you’ve been wearing this shirt for a couple of months, instead of the actual couple of days… if that makes sense.

                                Did you perceive any, eh, perceptible indigo-loss as a make-weight for the precision fit?

                                  It was pretty stuffed with indigo out of the bag and that calmed down a little after the wash. I soaked the shirt with the shower head before washing and even then saw indigo pouring out. So there has been some but it still looks dark and even and I doubt very much that it is going to affect its potential for evo.

                                    One year in and the placket stitching hasn't held. I wear this about 4 times a month and it's been soaked once and washed twice. Going off to IHUK for repair. Getting some nice evo too.

                                      I figured that when the crew saw the picture they would take care of it 🙂 love to see the fixed pictures when you get it back

                                          Just found your brand and really excited about your products. Finally found a brand which shirts seems like fitting me somehow  😠
