IHSH-218-BLK - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt "The Johnny Cash III" - Superblack

[akohut]

i'm looking to incrementally shrink this shirt. i first washed on 40C at 600rpm, and got a bit but not enough in the length. should my next step be 40C at a higher rpm? or is 60C at 600rpm a better choice?

@akohut

Can you split the difference and go 50c with a 800-100 rpm? We have 50c on UK machines as well as 40 and 60.

If not, I would make the jump to 60c for sure.

Are you at risk or it becoming too short at all?

[akohut]

@Graham thanks for this i'm almost certainly safe in the length, but i don't want a ton off the shoulders/chest. my washer jumps from 40 to 60 C, no 50 unfortunately

@ShopatIronHeart

Is ‘ShopatIronHeart’ the forum equivalent of the Batsignal?

@gneicher yep, hopefully here soon

[worn2fade]

@AdamJ any idea what “soon” may look like?
Wedding is coming up and this could be a great piece for my outfit.

[AdamJ]

Iron Heart Germany will also restock this

I love this. However, I have a couple of questions:

Will the new release also shrink about 1/2 of a size after washing?

And

Will the sizing chart be updated prior to release?

Thanks

[goosehd]

@SFMCfranky Sizing charts are always listed as soon as IHUK has a chance to review the sizes and generate a sizing chart prior to release. It’s their standard operating procedure.

[AdamJ]

@gneicher releasing next week!

[gneicher]

@AdamJ schweet! Hoping it isn’t gone too soon. Maybe I’ll get it for a January birthday present

@SFMCfranky Like most of our denim, this one is sanforized and one-washed to remove potential shrinkage. As with all cotton fabrics, though, it’s not an exact science. We don’t expect any significant shrinkage when washed in accordance with the care guidelines (30 degrees, no spin or tumble dry), but you may see a little more movement if it’s washed or soaked at warmer temperatures, tumble dried etc. Hope that helps!
