Question: do I need to soak this or can I just wear it as is? I noticed on the care card that soaking helps lock in the stitching. I think right now, I'd prefer not since I like the fit.
I know it's lightly sanfordized, but Gile said to treat as raw: and the post shrunk results seemed more dramatic than the 71's.
If I should soak, I saw 40 C is recommended, but can I still lock stitching at a cooler temp to minimize shrinking? If so, about what temp?
Thanks!

Just as an FYI, I did a fairly hot soak and did not see any noticeable differences in sizing before/after. I would soak in cold water if I were you just to be on the safe side.

Holy shit that's some great wear @Zein1505 . Was waiting for the 14 oz black x black but now I'm debating…

Wait, in less than three months, your jacket faded this much? Was it an artificial fade? Genuine interested in how this evo occurred so rapidly. Thx!
The double indigo denim fades very quickly at the points where it creases while staying dark elsewhere. The result is high contrast fading especially at the elbows, hems etc.
Add to this the fact that @Zein1505 wears his everyday in a tropical climate and Bob’s your uncle. I have a strong impression that he wears his denim hard with no f@@ks given too. That always helps.

Like Neph said and he has been wearing his hard since Dec or Nov of last year, so a lot longer than 3 months.

Ah, I see. I have an IH-101J that I’m wearing daily without giving a f€k and a half wooden tooth, but it’s still saturated with indigo like ink from a chicken-sht squid. Guest I’ll have to roll in the dirt and slide into homebase more often.
