          @worn2fade my washing machine is pretty bare-bones (the perils of having cheap landlords) as far as features and options, so I can choose “delicate cycle” but there’s no choice but to endure a spin cycle. I’ve never experienced any streaking, but of course YMMV.

              @pechelman I appreciate the kind words man! Hope it helps out others in the future since this jacket can be extremely tricky.

              I appreciate all that helped me with their advice and such!

                  @worn2fade Thanks for the intense story, that was fun to read. Even if the washing experience was nerve-racking, looking at the pictures you nailed the post wash fit!

                        @worn2fade nice work man! The denim science experiment is one of my favorite parts of this hobby. I’ve got notebooks with almost all my shrink data. A dedicated Notes folder in my phone (thx @SKT ) to document all my pants, jackets, shirts etc with fade progress, start dates, washes etc.

                        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                              @Mizmazzle Thanks much!! Even though I own the OD version of this model (which I love), I ended up springing for the 526L from this batch, as I found one for a pretty good deal and couldn't resist. Hopefully it will work out; if not, I figure I can always sell it!!
