Man, the endless fade porn and hype of this thread forced me to give in . Can’t wait to get my hands on one of these… gonna just have to find a thing or two to sell to keep the fade pool from getting diluted haha…

@Jcaz6996 Incredible, and still almost 5 months to go. This is going to be so good come january.

[Jcaz6996]

Cheers mate definitely looking forward to seeing how it evolves further in another 5 months.

@endo nice one mate . Definitely loving the steady progression , didn’t think I would make 7 consistent months , at least one positive of having a terrible UK summer…

[Jcaz6996]

@Setanta cheers buddy I’ll be doing a 9 month next ..
Yours is looking good slow and steady

@Jcaz6996

You won’t only be the one doing 9 months.

We got away it due to bad weather.

Turn out good in the end

@pechelman I've got a 20?oz type3 that was loom state.Unwashed,unsanforized, uncalendered, uneverything it was wearing me for months before it relaxed. By way of saying if it was raw you would know it.

¯_(ツ)_/¯ @steelworker

This shrunk more on me compared to a pair of UHRs that I was TRYING to shrink with scalding hot water from a kettle, a dash of Dr bronners, and vigorous agitation. But all is good and the jacket is fitting great now. Fades are already popping and my desk surface at work is crocked with indigo. Just the other day someone at work I didn't know commented to me in the men's room (while wearing this jacket), "Has anyone ever told you you've got the whole rock star look down?"

Feel like that's good enough for me

[Mizmazzle]

@pechelman that’s the best compliment ever!!

So I got mine — ordered from Withered Fig and got em to delay shipping until I got back from being out of town. SUCH a rad thing to come home to... and man it's crispy.

I'm super glad I got a L, actually fits a little better than my XL 19OD, which is a tad snug in the shoulders but perfectly fine. 2 questions though... was planning on giving it a cold initial soak because I wasn't expecting it to be big in any way, but I actually wouldn't mind it tightening up a smidge. I know some of you really gave it a scalding soak, but did anybody just try warm? Curious to hear how much it shrank if so.

Second, this thing is so crispy that the creases in the sleeves from being folded are pretty damn pronounced. I'm guessing they'll just get better with wear but I'm all ears if anybody's got any trickery for getting those out. Maybe just try to smooth em out as it's hanging up to dry? I do plan on putting it on when it's still a little damp to set some creases in the elbows etc.
