          @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!!

                                    @Goz It may but also you need to agitate it for maximum shrinkage. Hot water by itself will not work on its own.

                                      @goosehd Ok I did a little agitation the second time I soaked it. The water was very hot 🔥!! I just want to remove as much shrinkage as possible so I don't have to worry about it in the future.

                                        @worn2fade Watching your video makes me think I need this 526L even though I picked up a 526LOD at the last release and it's been too hot here to wear it.

                                          @Goz Hot water and agitation is about all you can do. Just don't go too hot or you risk damaging the leather patch!
