IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

[Oaktavia]

Patch on this jacket has been sewn on. I will be able to wear this for about another 30 days or so before it gets hot here in Maryland. With this denim, 30 days makes quite the difference.

Just soak mine in hot water, this may sound dump anyone recommend to tumble dryer this after the soak..

I wouldn't, Mo. That denim is quite prone to white marks

@Alex

Thanks for the quick response

Shall let it dry on it own then, no tumble dryer

I let mine hang dry until it was just a little damp and wore it until dry. Perfect fit!

[Kasi]

@Oaktavia

Cheers for that ?

It’s hanging and drying inside weather shit outside..

[Oaktavia]

Such a nice jacket @Kasi

[RoxRocks86]

Nice pick up @Kasi

Is that a GAH snap or pin you got on the collar?

[Kasi]

@RoxRocks86

It not a pin or a snap add on.. it a GAH pimp snap fix’s and mostly probably I am first one to do something like this

Here take a look how I did it. I come out with these crazy idea

[ROman]

Great idea @Kasi

[Kasi]

Thanks much appreciated @ROman

[RoxRocks86]

Genius! Love the brilliancy behind the madness @Kasi 

[Kasi]

Thanks @RoxRocks86

When you know how to rock the jacket.

@neph93
Your welcome as always..

I size up two sizes when straight to a XXL..
When it arrived, I was like what the hell I have done it was massive.
So I pulled the trigger 1 hour hot water soak right away took the risk
worm it damp like @Oaktavia..

The problem I have is I train to hard, have big shoulders and lack.
Normal sizes I can’t lift my arm up it locks

Worn my Iron Heart 33 indigo shirt underneath felt really good..
More room to move around plus when am driving.
All round it a winner and looks good

Plus me wife said what the hell are you wearing.
Once crease settled in.. table turn she like it 

[Oaktavia]

@Kasi I felt the same way when I tried on mine. It was massive haha. But the shrink was perfect and wearing while damp set the creased just like you said. Glad you like it. The denim fades pretty quickly, I have been wearing it daily since I got it. Lots of blues and even white around and under the wrists.

@kasi did you take any fit pics before washing?

I always find the transformation of before and after (washing) shots cool

[Kasi]

@RoxRocks86

I wish I did take the picture at first I bottle it  ???, I was a little tense due to being a bigger fit
can I make this work

It all paid off in the end. It a gamble I took.

I know you take pictures before and after kinda of cool.. 

[ROman]

@Kasi That fit looks great.

[Kasi]

@ROman

Glad you like the fit thanks
