IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

@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.

Incredible documentation and thanks for bringing us along. Your jacket looks great on you @worn2fade

[worn2fade]

@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]

@moskiitto anytime man! I appreciate the kind words, glad at the end of this it paid off haha.

@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.

@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!!

First time taking the jacket outside.

@worn2fade you two look wonderful. Jacket too!

[worn2fade]

@Oaktavia Thanks brother!
