Hi guys,

Does anyone have any advice on washing/soaking regimen for this jacket?

I know it’s a rookie question but just looking for some advice.

Thank you!

@Jrei94 - I don't think you can go wrong with a regimen on this one.. we washed the Tour Jacket quite a bit and it faded beautifully. The OD handles washing well, and since the indigo was already impregnated with the Sulphur dye, the contrast will probably never be the "same" as indigo, although I think the tour jacket is pretty contrasty.

I usually just wash my Type 3s once a year after I wear them routinely for the season, and then fresh and crisp in the closet they go for summer.

No need to soak, there is no shrinkage. Wash @ 40C on low spin in a machine.

@neph93 @Appfaff Thank you! This is extremely helpful and I’m glad that’s it’s pretty straightforward 

[Appfaff]

Sure thing! Enjoy it!

It's better to to ask those sort of questions at shop@ironheart.co.uk….

But, not for a few months.....

Two years, two months.  One wash.  Probably my favourite article of clothing ever.

Would you say this fades to blue or grey? I’m guessing if it’s od from indigo it’s blue?

These are just the finished IH-526L’s that are dyed whole, one more time with black fugitive dye.

The never fade totally to indigo, nor do they ever lose all the black. With time you will see many colours coming through, shades of grey, blue/indigo and even white is high abrasion areas.

Here is a very well worn version:

Restocking at 1600BST on Wednesday 24th November
(pending delivery of a missing box delayed in China)

[Joberwocky]

Hell yeah!  I've been thinking of picking up a denim jacket that ISNT blanket lined, as much as I love my stormrider I don't really consider it an "indoor" piece, but that might just be me trying to convince myself

Fresh out the box

Sizing chart updated for impending restock. Longer body and sleeves, everything else very similar.
