IHJ-103-IND - 12oz Wabash Chore Jacket - Indigo

[Oaktavia]

It shrunk quite a bit more and fits like a glove now. I had it the water at 190-210F lots of stirring and gradually letting the temperature down. 40 mins of that and then thrown into the dryer until dry. From there I wetted the honeycomb area to reset the creases and will wear to bed tonight and to work tomorrow.

@Mizmazzle Greats minds my friend lol

[themage]

@Oaktavia Holy shit! I love this

[themage]

@Oaktavia If your old lady cuddles with you and creates "Friction" on the garment I won't consider that cheating on your fades.

[Oaktavia]

@themage bruh

Good call on power boiling that jacket @Oaktavia --thought it looked too big in the classroom pic. Shoulders looked big, which in turn makes the whole fit too big.
How did the sleeve length hold up?

[Oaktavia]

@dinobarnesberlin yeah overall I was thinking it could use more shrink. Sleeve length shrunk more and it looks and feels better. I'll take another pic at work later and show you.

Would love to see this

[dinobarnesberlin]

@Oaktavia yea do that--I bet its like night and day

[Oaktavia]

Quick lunchbreak photos @dinobarnesberlin @doubletee I feel the overall fit of the jacket has shrunk, what do you think?

[T4920]

@Oaktavia looks much better I'd say! Still your trademark oversized style, but looks a lot more fitted to your body shape

[Oaktavia]

@T4920 that's what I was thinking too. I love my stuff loose, but not too loose that it looks silly. Especially outer shell layers.

[dinobarnesberlin]

That did the trick @Oaktavia ---still some room the way a shop jacket should fit, but it sure does look better now.
Let the abuse begin!

[Oaktavia]

@dinobarnesberlin I agree, these sorts of jackets are supposed to be loose, which is why I wanted one. Happy I boiled it though, because it was defo too loose. I love it now and it is super comfortable like a pajama shirt. Plus, it'll fit over 99% of my wardrobe.

[doubletee]

Fits like a glove man, love the look!
