      just avoid the machine mate , give them a soapy soak if necessary.

          Also not sure if that matters but I didn't realize they were raw so I wore them for about 3 months before the 1st wash. Nothing shifted a bit of shrinkage but every pair I own gets a bit tighter after a wash, maybe lost 1 inch in inseam but no drama .

            Shifting fades due to shrinkage it basically not a thing with anything we make, the amount of shrinkage is so small (as a percentage) that it makes TSROFA difference. I see people obsessing about it, but it really is not a thing.....What contributes more to shifting fades, is not having the creases and fold lines imprinted into the memory of the denim before you wash (especially the first time)......Vintage fades lack contrast in part, because the whiskers and honeycombs move every time the jeans are washed.

              Yeah, it's something that Mike wrote a little about on here. I'm more fixated on a hot soak to help shrink the fabric down close to a 42 with the 44 I have on the way. I have more 44s in my closet than the former, but oftentimes I find myself in between sizes on the charts. Either way, I'm stoked to get this jacket in my hands (hopefully) today.

                The DD has landed! Sleeves are a bit long and I could lose a little bit all over. It's hot soaking now in my tub. I'll hang it dry and wear it damp to work tomorrow.

                This jacket is insanely awesome. Just what I had imagined it to be. It's damn perfect. I'll be wearing this for the foreseeable future.

                      @Oaktavia amazing my man. The sleeves could come up and in a bit but overall a great fit. I love the contrast stitching and the flat indigo color. There’s no one better to fade this grail beauty

                          Hell yeah dudes. Here it is after dripping for a bit. Still super wet and can still stand up. I have it inside now next to a heater.

                                    @Oaktavia fit in the body looks great, I’d try cuffing the sleeves on this one, and with the stiffness of this fabric they may look permanently wonderful in that position. Congrats!!

                                        @SourPower the sleeves have shrunk a bit from the hot soak and have since scrunched up from elbow creasing. They're sitting in a better place now.

                                        @Tobi hahahaha 😆

                                            Fit is perfect, just how I wanted a Type 3 to sit. The arm creases are insane.

                                            Edit: Oh, and I wore this to bed last night while it was still damp. Fortunately for me, the timing was perfect, as my wife is finishing up a job in Texas at the mo'. It was gnarly sleeping in it, but I'm so obsessed with this jacket that it was a gnarly kind of pleasure.
