      @Alex the question was not regarding my page on IG, it was about hashtags that for some reason don't work posting my pics on the IG pages mentioned along with other people's pics posted there. So I wonder if there are some requirements for posting pics there. You've partially answered my question in regards to IH

        @Yoprst tagging IH doesn’t guarantee your picture will be reposted. Each page’s owner decides what to repost based on whether they want to post it or not. It’s not something you’d have any control over.

              @Yoprst the best way is to tag the person/accountname cause they will get a notification that you tagged them and they can choose to share that in there story. But it’s not a certainty. Hashtags are one of the ways to set the algorithm behind your post. So for example if you tag ‘@fadetoimpress’ which is my username i’ll get a notification. Basically the same as what happens here on the forum. I hope it makes some sense 🙂

                @Heavy_blue No the hashtags in question don't look to belong to somebody's personal IG pages: #ironheartforum, #ironheartarmy, #ironheartdenim etc.

                    @Yoprst all that does is connect your picture to the hashtag. So if someone searches that hashtag, or follows that hashtag then your pic will be there, amongst all the others. In the case of #ironheartdenim that is probably a few hundred posts every single day, if not more.

                      @neph93 Never mind. Not a big deal. @ the end of the day my pics are not of such vavalue for me to worry abt them too much. There are tons of them from other IH fans worth being posted on Instagram and other media.

                        I have one of the 14oz ( I think) sweaters that has become a bit big due to weight loss and was a bit big to start with really ( rookie error when in my early ordering stage )
                        Would a wash and tumble dry shrink it a bit and if so what temps would I be looking at?

                          @Brian Probably not no. If it doesn't have a print you could blast it at 90C (which may distort the weave of the fabric). That might help. But any shrinkage achieved with 60C will stretch straight back out again.

                            I would think throwing it in the dryer would shrink it up nicely for you. A hot wash too if it’s really big.

                                I do a warm machine wash and tumble dry hot my IH sweats all the time and haven’t really noticed more than a subtle tightening that stretches back out again.

                                          @Oaktavia +1 to the patagonia rec above. Specifically the ones with the hydrolock closure. These stay put, dry fast, and are pretty minimal. Only things a pair of swim shorts need to do imo. You'll likely want to wear something under them though if you dont have the appropriate layer, I'd recommend the bn3th entourages.
