        Anyone from the latest batch who has hot soaked with the intent to shrink able to take p2p, length, and sleeve measurements? At least that way we can compare to the measurement charts.

          @Twistlock yooo!!! Is it strange that I can’t wait until I get to damage my thumb too!!?

          Did you try sticking a knife sharpening tool or screwdriver in the button hole and twisting and stretching first? I did that with my XHS and never had a problem buttoning them up from the start.

          In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

            @Mizmazzle, yeah used a needle-nose plier to widen the holes. not much damage to the finger but a lot of indigo transfer.

                  I did a hot soak but also washed mine in 60°C @ 400rmp. Shrank quite a bit about an inch on sleeve length and length.
                  I bought a XL and thought it might shrink a bit so it fits better after washing.

                  Shoulders: 20.2" (51.3cm) -> 49.5cm
                  Length: 27.9" (70.9cm) -> 68.2cm
                  Chest: 23.5" (59.7cm) -> 58cm
                  Waist: 21.2" (53.8cm) -> 53cm
                  Opening: 21.3" (54.1cm) -> 53cm
                  Sleeve Length: 27.7" (70.4cm) -> 67.5cm
                  Sleeve Opening: 4.8" (12.2cm) -> 12cm

                        That‘s very helpful thank you! And it assures me that I ordered the right size.

                          I think it will shrink less, but i can't confirm, in a 30-40°C wash since 60°C is above recommendations. Always nice to have options, i usually buy slightly to big and wash in 60°C.

                            Good to know, thanks for the heads up! I‘ll start with a hot soak if it needs to shrink and will wash it at 60°C if it‘s still too big.

                                Talking about. Indigo bleeds

                                Will keep bleeding until then you gotta deal it with wear with dark colours.

                                👍

                                    That looks great @Daniel-San! Another medium should be showing up for me today too.

                                    Would be very thankful if you could do before/after soak measurements on the length, sleeve, and p2p for yours.
