The Real McCoys

Maybe a long shot, but curious if anyone here's ever owned the RMC denim western:
I just got one, and it's a little big. S&S's site says they've rinsed them, but this shirt doesn't at all feel like that's the case (crispy new Wrangler shirt vibes), so I emailed them to ask.
Mainly just wondering if anybody's happened to have owned one, and how much shrink you got out of yours. I'ts a killer shirt, and I wanna keep it, just not sure if I should give it a wash or maybe just size down.
TIA!

Heard back from Mari at S&S — my shirt wasn't washed. Def some shrink to be expected, so I gave it a hot soak just now with a good bit of agitation. Hangin' up to dry in the sun.
Thanks for the DM @Filthy . We'll see how this goes!
-
Nice you can't go wrong with using boiling water and forced heat to shrink it. Good luck. I really like that shirt because of the eclectic snaps.
-
Me too! It's great looking — I'm a big fan of their denim in general, too. I have the Lot 001 and though it's way different than IH, I love the color and texture. One of the only other companies where I've been like phew this fabric is right up my alley.
The shirt's definitely looking like it's shrunk a bit, but I'll have to wait a bit til it's fully dry to give it a try-on.

The 10oz sweatpants are fantastic. Uber soft but still substantial, with a roomy but not baggy fit. Blasphemy I know, but they are making it hard to want to put jeans back on.

These 8HU flannels are bomb as boxier and lighter/neppier options - saxe/brown and beige/navy. Just found the saxe/brown as an eBay deal!

@goosehd thank you!

Hi. Just purchased that jacket. I would like the members advice about the size. Do you think I should go one size down ? I will not layering with thick cardigans as I live in a mild climate. Thanks.
-
That has all the telltale signs of being a size too large. The shoulder seams drape over your shoulders, the sleeves are about an inch too long and the the body length seems an inch or 2 too long.
If you aren't planning on adding bulky underlayers I think you are safe to go a size smaller and have a cleaner/neater fitting jacket.
A better fit will actually provide you with improved warmth and insulation too.
-
I agree. Size down.
-
@Sisyfos I have moved your question here and am in agreement in sizing down.
How tight is it in the abdomen? You have one buttoned where it looks like it’s slightly pulling.
That may be your deciding factor if so.
