    Got pulled away from home for a couple of days and finally had a chance to soak the medium. Did a very luke warm kinda soak, just barely where a shower would be comfortable at the low end. Wet observations are that the width didn't move too much but the sleeves maybe came up half an inch. Will post after measurements hopefully tomorrow. I did put it on for a bit while still wet to set the creases and hung it with each sleeve bent that way by fastening the sleeve button/hole to the placket on each side. We'll see if that helps but figured it wouldn't hurt.

      Results are in, similar to my first impressions;

      P2P: 22.2 - 21.9
      WST: 20.1 - 19.7
      OPN: 20.2 - 19.7
      SHD: 18.9 - 18.5
      LTH: 26.7 - 26.0
      SLV: 27.0 - 26.1

      It's hard to measure this fabric, but I tried my best.

      One picture from the drip dry setup noted above and two more terrible fit series. You can definitely see the length come up in relation to the rear pockets. It's a little snug through the middle but should work for a hoodie. This was with a very mild temp soak and basically no agitation. I'd suspect the large in a stupid hot soak with agitation might have worked overall but I'm not sure if it would ever have looked as good over just a tee.

        @pechelman Thank you for the data and the pictures! I still think the medium is the right fit and when the denim settles will look fantastic on you.

        Now all you have left to do is just beat and wear it into submission 🙂

          Thanks, @goosehd. I agree and thanks as always for your insight. There are a couple of snug spots that remind me of how the 293 fit where I was concerned but it's settled and broken in nicely to where it looks great. This feels like it will be similar, just maybe more stubborn.

          In another note, I'd like to ask this as respectfully as possible, but is this really one washed? There wasn't any puckering around the stitching before that I now see after a really gentle barely warm soak with zero agitation that resulted in nearly an inch of loss on the lengths. The "no shrinkage" expected on the sizing chart is maybe a little inaccurate in my one sample. Again, not intending to be critical, but honestly asking and bringing up to help others get the right size or know what to expect.

                  A big +1 to this to oaktavia, kasi, twin, jcaz and all the other lefty folks. Last year I wanted this jacket in OD when everything was out of stock, ended up getting a 14IB in the meantime, and had my arm thoroughly twisted to get this one instead. You all should get commission 😃

                    @pechelman @Setanta Another +1 here. And let's not forget @spitfiredealer he had a great one as well (not to mention several pairs of incredible jeans).

                    I generally prefer shorter (unmodified) denim jackets, but felt I had to give this one a go. Josh was helpful and picked out the shortest one in my size. Hopefully it will work out, and it seems like there's some shrinkage to get out with a hot soak as well. Thanks to everyone who posted pre/post measurements.

                        Yes, it definitely is one-washed, but there can be variances run to run, of course. This is treated the same as past runs of this, which we have shrunk test in the past and that is our experience. We will run a shrink test again this week and update with our findings

                          Altough I have a 19oz leftie trucker is from an older batch and hasn't seen water, but i have 2 19oz lefties 634 v2 and in a cold wash i didnt get any shrinkage or if I did it was negligible so there maybe a variance from batch to batch.

                            Now I finally know why you guys call the Lefty the best jacket in the universe. It’s just an incredible piece of clothing! I could barely move when I wore it damp to work this morning. Just a few hours later it already fits like a glove – or rather like a suit of armor!

                              @AtariHunter cool … don’t think mine would stand like that now it’s got too soft.
                              You planning on wearing it everyday if possible?

                                I mean, it‘s a good thing after all that it will get softer😄 I won‘t be able to wear it every day for now because it still gets hot here in Switzerland – summer isn‘t over yet. And I also have other pieces that I like to wear, so I don‘t think that I will wear it every day. But it will be a staple and I will wear it often for sure!
