ahh nice @profdbrk thank you! That's super helpful. I usually need a pair of jeans with a 12" rise to be about 33" post soak, then they'll stretch out a bit, so the fact that you lost about 2" seems perfect.
I've heard the bit about them shrinking again after the first soak. Pretty interesting, and good to confirm that it happened to you too. I'll definitely keep that in mind.

Back from the dead
Their latest WW2 cut, the SOA03XXD in W36

I have to admit, when I first saw this collaboration piece with standard and strange I made a hard pass on it. My style has been moving out of Heritage as of late. Definitely still in IronHeart, but less denim on denim, etc. BUT! Some part of my brain wouldn’t let this one go, though and before I knew it I was pining for it even though I missed the pre-order. Standard strange had one sz42 left over so I had to give it a shot.
Depending on the vest, I like a more tailored fit and I think HAD I preordered, I might’ve bought a 40? I am pretty on the cusp. Over a tee, the fit is a little bit roomier than I would normally rock, however it’s very comfortable and I think looks pretty great. Apologies for the baggies, it is still super hot and muggy
Construction is some of the finest I have ever seen and I have seen a lot. It is denim faced inside as well as out and the denim is a heritage pattern recreates by Japan Blue. It is surprisingly hefty compared to other vests I own, almost comparable to an IH vest. Overall it is a beautiful thing that I am both excited about and happy to own.

Hell yeah
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
Well, I have others. -

@Palmer nothing special, just old Patagonia Baggies. I think I have 5 pairs now and live in them most of the summer.

@steelworker thanks man, I figured this might be up your alley as well

SOA03XXD paired with a rare Type 2 jacket, also made by Ooe Yofukuten.

Received this chore coat during the week and like it a lot so far, always liked chore coats but didn’t think they’d suit me.
-
Beautiful jacket! I will be keeping my eyes open for something similar.

i'm bummed i missed out on it. great coat
-
@marco23d prob not much use to you but they still have a size 36(s) available.. I took a 42 and am L/M in iron heart.
-
@Anesthetist cheers dude, I think it’s same denim used on the vest you posted a while back..
-
@VoodooRay then you’re in for a good time
I’m really bummed I missed out. I would definitely rock this piece. -

@Anesthetist wondering if you've washed this much? I just ordered something a similar Amoskeag repro denim and am curious to see more pictures of how it looks after wears and washes.
-
@T4920 It has been so hot and with our move I haven't been able to give it much love the last 5 months or so. Mine has just a little wear on the front pockets and some wear on the vertical creases off of the shoulder (if that makes sense). I have only washed it once on cold.
