[Kasi]

You been bashing that out

James

See you got a cut in the backside

[Jcaz6996]

@Kasi yes pal every day
No mate little salt patch on the back no rip..

[Kasi]

@Jcaz6996

After two months mine will be a year too.

Am thinking of doing the 18oz indigo CPO indigo next

[denim-dawg]

@Jcaz6996 Breathless…. Those ten days … maybe the jacket needed a break from such epic fading…

[Jcaz6996]

@Kasi I don’t count how long I’ve owned something I’m fading for but only how many days I’ve worn it .
Literally keep notes

I’ll continue to wear this into 2024 to get the 10 days back I’ve missed.

Then thinking rotating a few CPOs and my OD lefty I’ve got 60 days in..

[Jcaz6996]

@denim-dawg cheers pal got to keep grinding going for full white honeycombs up both sleeves

[denim-dawg]

@Jcaz6996 My eyes are bleeding indigo from watching your fading, bro. Impressive as hellfire in Frozen

[pechelman]

Rolled up the sleeve to do some dishes and was surprised to see this. Love the indigo popping on the weft side too.

@Jcaz6996 That is some good wear for just 10 months.

I'm waiting for a restock on this one, Hope this arrives in the next months. I was so close to get the Tellason coverall, but this thread here is keeping me focused to wait for a restock.

@the246guy

I‘m afraid there won‘t be a restock for quite some time… The last one happened like two month ago.

[Oaktavia]

@Jcaz6996 I really dig how the back of the sleeves on the forearms look. Those seem to lighten up after the honeycombs shine through. It's like one of the last steps of the fading process. Mine are just now starting to look like raindops, but I have only worn mine a few times this season.

[Jcaz6996]

@Oaktavia cheers mate it’s crazy how soft to the touch they are as well silky smooth.

[Fl4vM]

Really good job @Jcaz6996 !! :the_horns:
Mine seems brand new in comparison of yours !

[Mizmazzle]

Got the new size medium and large in. I’m about 99% I’m going large on this decision. Accounting for shrink. The large sleeves are only .25” longer. Looking for a final back length around 26” the large is at 27” now….think it will shrink right where I want it to be. Comfy over a UHF…basically where the medium is now before a soak. Here’s some pics if y’all have any input. But an inch shrink in length and an Inch sleeve shrink plus creasing and I think I’ll be golden.

Size Medium

[Mizmazzle]

Size large

[pechelman]

Depends what you want but the medium looks better to me.

Also, I took some measurements today and all the width measurements that shrunk that have seen tension are stretched right back to presoak numbers. The lengths are still shrunk as you'd maybe expect.

[goosehd]

In agreement and would go with a medium.

[Mizmazzle]

I def agree the medium looks best out of the bag. I’m going for a more roomy fit this time. Want to be able to button it up over a UHF and have good movement. Based on the IH shrink results and others’ shrink experience and my own on my other jacket…still think large with a good soaking. Tomorrow after work the denim lab is open!
