      @Oaktavia Awesome that you were able to find one! Like new, no less.

      This one and the IH-X526J are top on my most wanted list.

      I am so happy to have one coming my way. It's all thanks to @Raisinoux for the tip off. Like new makes it even better but I would have been happy to have one in any condition. This is an IH fever dream come reality.

      I also had no idea about the IH-X526J. I know what forum rabbit home I'm headed down this evening.

                    @Raisinoux fortunately, the 526J22OD I have been working on this year has faded faster than expected. So, I feel I have a fair amount of steps towards my goal with that one. It should take the DD a few weeks to reach land in West Virginia anyway which gives me a little more time with the 22OD...thoughts are now properly sorted.

                        Did a warm soak on my 526J-DD the other day to get rid of all the shrinkage.

                        Shoulders: 20'' -> 19.8''
                        Length: 26.75'' -> 26.25''
                        P2P: 22.7'' -> 22''
                        Waist: 20.5'' -> 20.3''
                        Opening: 21.2'' -> 21''
                        Sleeve: 27.6'' -> 27''

                        Good to know the DD shrinks, quite a bit if need be. Nearly a whole size in some areas. I might just follow the UHR instructions by hot soaking and washing it. Which would be the Filthy Method as he was usually interested in removing all shrink to avoid the dreaded fade shift. I can hear him saying in my head (you're gonna want to get all that shrink out).

                            It makes me wonder how many other long lost, unworn grail items are out there folded in someone's dresser drawer or hanging in a closet. I have found a few older pieces but not unworn ones, so I feel quite fortunate. I will wear it in the name of Mike.

                                          @SourPower haha...hoping it gets here tomorrow. I will hot soak it to remove any shrink. I am nervous about putting it through a hot washing machine like I would with UHR. This DD fabric is prone to marbling. @Alex you were ablet to get a fair amount of shrink from just a hot soak, correct? I plan to agitate the water as much as I can. I'll take measurements before and after to test it.

                                            Is the fabric the same as the one used on the 634's DD?. I washed mine without knowing anything about marbling in the washing machine and it did not marble. Now I washed it cold and nonsense cycle. Not sure if that matters.
