@WhiskeySandwich helllllll yeah man looking terrific. Creases set super nicely. Already seeing grey fades. These are going to evo like fucking crazy.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia awwww yea, thanks! I’m going to enjoy this one a lot. This thing is going to fade like a champ. It’s one day and I hardly did shit. Lol

In honor of @WhiskeySandwich 's method, here's my bad boy drying after a quick soak.

Edit: works now

[Mr Linz]

@Oaktavia so odd. It’s showing up on my phone :s I used the upload image one.

[Oaktavia]

@Mr-Linz I can see it now you're good.

[Mr Linz]

@Oaktavia after all that it feels somewhat underwhelming ha! But the shirt is not! Wow!

[Oaktavia]

@Mr-Linz the shirt is indeed not!

[Mr Linz]

As a general update on this BEAST of a shirt, I had the snaps changed to the black HD western snaps (it's been my dream for a while to have a black - ultimately faded to fuck - CPO/western combo). Soaking it first to set it to your body is genius @WhiskeySandwich but it also had two additional benefits for me:

1 - the shirt had some strong creases on the sleeves from shipping which disappeared after the soak. I'm sure they would've gone through general wear over time but personally I don't like my shirts looking like they've just come back from the dry cleaner... So this was a massive plus.

2 - the western snaps are smaller and leave a small indent or circle around where the original larger copper snap sat. It wasn't a massive deal, but the lads at IHUK didn't know how it would go because the fabric is new. I can report that after the soak, I can't see the indents at all. It was like magic.

STOKED to wear this for many years.

@Mr-Linz there it is! Git to wreckin!

[WhiskeySandwich]

Picked up one of these OGL wallets too to try out. Really like how slim it is. It’s actually comfortable enough to sit on lol

Too hot today to wear this for real (I’m no @Jcaz6996 ) but I wanted to mark the start of the journey. Others will go harder and faster, but I’m happy to take things at my own pace and enjoy the ride.

This thing is every bit as good as we were hoping for. If you haven’t got one yet, what’s wrong with you?

[Jcaz6996]

@ARNC … looking good
I’ve got mine on for a few hours today while my Lefty is on the line drying. Its such a sick CPO
Your be well ahead of me mate in the fade game going to start wearing mine next year on a daily for now my 526L has all the attention.
Definitely enjoy the journey interesting to see how long it takes to soften up.

@Jcaz6996 - What?! The lefty’s getting a wash?!

[ARNC]

@Jcaz6996 you’ll overtake me with a couple of hours of serious wear! Still I’ve got some time off in November and the 362 has already booked its place.

Look forward to seeing what you do with yours.

[Jcaz6996]

@Crispy-Heron yep … got to get rid of the sweat and grim so it’s nice and fresh for for Hamburg
