@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.

Really good job @Jcaz6996 !!

Mine seems brand new in comparison of yours !

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

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!
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

It’s tough, I’d agree the medium looks to fit like a glove but I understand comfort takes priority sometimes. I’m sure the soak will do the Large good- it doesn’t look OVERLY big.

Actually your size L looks quite the same as my size XL did before I hot soaked it (almost 50 degree Celsius) and I‘m really really happy how it fits now. Size M seems perfect on you, but if you‘re going to do a hot soak and if you‘re looking for layering, I would go with the L. I‘m pretty sure it will be spot on post soak!

@Mizmazzle you better be playing a movie for the kids today because your head is going to be in the denim lab allllll day. Looking forward to seeing how you make out

@flannel-slut, God knows I've done that more than once! Don't tell their mother.

This is the way...these jackets shrink enough to ensure a better fit with a hot soak with the large. Mine looked even bigger than your L does before my hot soak and it shrunk to look like your M. The medium would be perfect if you only planned on washing or soaking in super cold water.

@flannel-slut haha. I could barely sleep last night!! I was dreaming of bubbling beakers and indigo colored Einstein hair!! @Oaktavia I was comparing your before after pics to mine as well. I could bite everyone with the specific measurements of all the jackets I have on hand and shrink data. But size Large is the way.

@Mizmazzle looking forward to seeing photos my guy.
