      My old Swedish serge cargos have these abrasions. I dig em in that case. My current washing machine has a pre-soak option when you're setting up the cycle and I have had good luck with that in terms of not adding to the abrasions that are already there.

      Think it, be it.

        @neph93:

        Just to clarify, are you suggesting that I soak this shirt before putting it in the washing machine to avoid the white marks?

        Correct mate. Not a long soak just get it thoroughly wet inside and out. This presents sharp creases from forming in the machine but is these that create the marks.

        I washed my one of these this way (30C and 600rpm, air dry), and it went just fine.

          Awesome, thank you Neph.  Thankfully this one shouldn't need a wash for a bit.

              Man does that look nice!  Good patina you’ve developed with your shirt.

              Hope a restock happens in the next few months.

                Thanks. I love the evo on it. It has lots of wears in the books and couple of washes, don’t know exactly how many.

                  @Dmart Great looking shirt. I own the grey version. But because of the recent heat in Germany I wasn't able to wear it often… Waiting for fall...

                    Same here in Switzerland, but I wear it riding the bike in the mornings, so it still gets some wear.

                      After seeing @sabergirl ‘s picture of her 162 I had to get this. I hope I can do mine justice!
                      Got it from James Dant since IHUK was out. So far I am so happy, a good break from the indigo.

                            Thanks @Jcaz6996 I’m by no means competition to you and your Fades, but I just love this shirt and wear it whenever I can. The fit and feel is perfect to me.

                                      @Mizmazzle Is that the shirt/deal you pm’d about?  If so, outstanding job!  It looks great  🙂

                                        @goosehd it is exactly that shirt!! Damn nice!! Perfect color. Love the weight. And the construction is out of this world. I can see wearing this thing constantly. I told myself I wouldn’t wear IH exclusively. Yet…this seems to be exactly what happening haha

                                          Just wanted to ask… Does my shirt look too long compared to my almost perfect fitting type 3 vest? Don't mind my pyjama pants.
