@illo59:

I always wash it with a bunch of other stuff on 40°C and air dry, i never use a dryer. I had no noticeable shrinkage…Fits slightly tighter after a wash but stretches back in no time. the chase t shirt shrank a good bit if i remember correct. @Shoreman

Thanks @illo59 I've decided not to chance it. Better to pay a little less on something I'm not worried about abusing or accidentally tossing in the dryer.

sounds smart to me i don't have a dryer so my accident-rate might be lower haha

@RubyRae that is a beast!

I just got delivery of a pair of Carhartt WIP Chase sweatpants hoping they’d hold me over until the IH ones return and they’re really nice. I’ll put together a cute little outfit tomorrow and will report back.

[Matt]

I love these. Going to get grey too. Maybe black…

[endo]

they are looking good

@Matt - very cute fit indeed.

So the sweats are nice? I've looked at WIP stuff so many times but could never get myself to pull the trigger. You know how it is once you fill your closet with IH.

Brown is also so under-rated.

[Matt]

Same here. These live up to the hype. The brown was harder to find and I figured classic Carhartt brown while I could find it was a safe bet. Now I need those Carhartt new balance 990s to complete my mini obsession.

Side note: I love that brick wall!!!

@Matt - yea dude - those 990v6 Carhartts will complete that outfit for sure. Down to the olive T lining up against the greyish-olivish mesh on the NB.

@Matt thanks for bringing these up. I hadn't thought to check out carhartt WIP for sweats. I just have one pair of camo ones made by Filson. They're nice, but I'd like more than one. I'll check these out.

I got Medium and they fit perfectly well. I’m 5’9” and a 33/34.

I was thinking I would be M too. Carhartt seems to run large all around.
