      Just a heads up to anyone who purchased the Flannel from Ship John that recently dropped.

      I received mine, and I normally just throw everything new in the wash for sanitary purposes. I didn't take measurements, but before the wash, it was a little big on me wearing my normal Ship John size. I washed on cold but dried in the dryer on normal not thinking much of it. The flannel shrunk a bit a across the board, nothing major and fits a lot better/normal to my size in most areas, however the sleeve length shrunk on me too much. I went from the sleeves over my wrist to fitting about two watches on my wrist between the sleeve and my hand and it looks a little goofy on me now.

      Sorry if any of this is hard to follow, I'm not the most technical 🤣 and could be a isolated event. But short story is, it seems like the sleeve length on this guy will shrink a significant amount if thrown in the dryer on regular. Might be best to hang dry this one.

          @mecken88 I would absolutely love to get a kristofferson as it is right up my street, but to be honest with the ship John drops I have pretty much given up now as it seems impossible to ever actually purchase anything

              @Darth-fader yeah I understand it’s frustrating, I can relate. Iv tried the Kristofferson on both releases, had Apple Pay ready and I could not have been quicker and still lucked out. Happend to me a few more time on their stuff. But I have also at the same time managed to buy some stuff, that’s easily my most liked and worn stuff!

              it’s a small company doing their best to provide the best clothes they can, with the amount they can handle at the time of their different releases.

              So probably everything from limited fabrics, time scheduling, having several different items planned throughout the year, and to find time to make everything, all stuff probably have a max numbers.

              And I agree it’s frustrating, but at the same time also what makes them even so much more special. So I also wish the releases was easier to get a hold of, higher numbers, bigger batches so people had a bigger chance to buy their stuff.
              But I think Mike also said it in a video once, that he likes being small. And have no intention expanding. So it’s one of those if you like their stuff you need to be quicker than Lucky Luke haha. But even so, you still need to have real luck on your side.

              So I’m still dreaming of the Kristofferson. So depending if they change it or not, if it’s the same or another color. I’m very interested, and if it’s still true to the original, I’m gonna do my best again😊🤘

                I have this idea that Mike would readily and happily produce garments exclusively for the folks within his community, if he could help it. I think he takes a lot of pride in being an Oregonian, and a Portland resident specifically. The clothes he makes are unabashedly in that style, and meant generally for the weather around Portland. Waxed canvas, heavyweight denim, flannels, moleskin, heavy sashiko, 16oz french terry, etc. shop exclusive events, shop exclusive drops, collaborations with Dehen, Langlitz, Huron, Beckel, et al.
                I just don't think that keeps the lights on in this day and age. So he has to sell online, and metaphorically open his shop up to hundreds of people at once to fight over however many dozens of garments he could get sewn up over the month or so the garment has been in production for.

                  Ship John’s recent little tease on their instagram of the upcoming Kristofferson jackets comeback. Looks like a Black n white filter been added to keep stuff interesting and unknown.
                  From the pictures something in my guts say the jacket and lining is a different color.

                  What do you guys think? Anyone excited about this to be teased more?🫣

                    At this point, just tell us the colorway.

                    Makes me appreciate IH even more… when it’s time for the release, they’ll show the piece, the closeups, and an attractive British man will try it on for you as many times as you damn well please

                      Mike did comment in the reply’s on instagram that it was a new colorway, but that they’re still in final production with Dehen and doesn’t want to give it away yet.

                        Too curious, I send them a question and asked.

                        Mike actually answered and was slightly cryptic with a short answer like he often does. That all details will be unveiled in time.
                        But for those hoping both the regular one and a new one will be produced, he unfortunately can burst that bubble.
                        He confirmed that just ONE version will be produced and it’s gonna be the new colorway. So a new one will be produced, the old will not come back as of now. If it will in the future, no one knows. He didn’t said anything about that. Just that the new colorway hasn’t been announced yet, and the old will not return with this release just the new colorway. And they will let everyone know when it’s ready.

                        Still very curious what the new colorway will be😊

                          I feel like a black denim is coming, which would be rad. In an earlier post, he mentioned a black Sashiko was coming soon too, so could be a killer combo!

                            @TheChef17 Man, black sashiko is my kryptonite. I'm not spending money on any clothes and just enjoying the lovely pieces I have. But that would sway me...
