I’m just giddy. Please excuse my boorishness.

@Wlemon Only two more days to go!

I would ask how long a plane flight to Gosport would take, but I know Americans can’t travel to the UK now.

The (updated) measurements on this jacket looks very interesting…
M would be just right with a T shirt, and L with a shirt/thin sweater. Such hard choices.
The shorter sleeve/length of this jacket is making me to jump with joy!
I have my 555-01OD arriving tomorrow...this may have to be next...decisions decisions...

How much shrinkage (if any) can you expect if you only ever gave this jacket a cool soak (and avoided warm machine washes)?

I’m trying to determine when I need to factor in a bit of shrinkage.

[neph93]

No shrinkage, even on a hot wash. The overdying process removes it all.

[Wlemon]

I have the 18oz CPO and have washed it in both hot and cold water. No shrinkage. You may, however, get marbling if you’re not careful.

Really useful and reassuring, thank you.

@Wlemon:

My type three quota has now been filled.

Forevah-evah? Or just for this month? [emoji1]

[Wlemon]

Ummm @neph93 

Forever, though. I don’t even want to list all the IH type 3s I have but it’s too many.

[neph93]

I feel you. I bought my first a number of years ago, then laid off. Had a type II in duck and a “first zip”. Figured that variation was key. But there is something about the design, the lines, that just makes them perfect whether to through on casually or as a focal point in ones attire. So I currently have three and really want a duck one….

[Paul9221]

I'm sure you have fewer type IIIs than Neph has vests
