@crisone:

That's why I did it right now, I'm home with the kids, wife is at work, haha…....

Cris.

Start wearing it right now while it's damp…. and wear a white shirt underneath 

[crisone]

Petee, I plan to, it's still a bit wet, waiting till like 12 to wear…...

And the dark load cleaned up all the Indigo off my Machine, yessss.

This is funny… I had a similar experience with my washing machine and dryer yesterday after soaking my 1103ex Strike Gold.
Took a bottle of Simple Green Cleanser to wipe up the excess indigo left over.

Loading up a batch of dark colored clothes to wash after your indigo soak is a great idea... never thought of this!

Looking forward to the IHSH-53 fit pics.

[crisone]

Alrighty, here's a fit pic in the damp stage, the sleeves shrunk perfectly, I just have to "half'cuff" if you can notice, the chest area feels like it shrunk a tad, but still perfect…..gosh I love this shirt!!!!!!  Thanks to all for the help.

[hectic]

really boring question for statesiders - do you guys typically have those top loader washing machines?

[Finn666]

looking great chris…another question: what lens?

[crisone]

hectic, people over here have both, but more front loading, energy saver supposably.

Finn, Canon 16-35L, WA Lens (shhh, [whisper voice]it makes me look skinnier[whisper voice]) haha.

Dude! Shirt looks gooooood! Right on congrats

[injunjack]

looks good, but back too washing machines. Whats that white sticking up from the bottom of the machine?

Never seen one of those. (we have had front loader for over a decade, so…)

[crisone]

^ It's the washer blade type thingies to rotate the clothes and where you pour the Fabric Softener in on top and after the rinse cycle, the Softener liquid releases through some spouts.

And thanks to all for the kind words…..

Cris.

[injunjack]

OK, all toploaders I've seen have had a drum like frontloaders do. The drum is just openable.

that shirt is going to age like no other & the fit is good on you cris.  to me it appears to have already lightened up a bit.  great job cleaning up the washing machine, can't have the 1st lady of the house mad with you 

[mankarat]

the shirt fits you much much better than previously cris.. good job.. enjoy the shirt brother..

[zhivago]

I have a feeling I will soak this tomorrow night…castle tradition

[Giles]

May be able to fix that for you.  The girl who bought our guest over last night came over from the Island on a RIB, it was so rough she was ejected into the sea (with both mobile phones in her pocket).  We wondered why she was a) late and b) did not phone us…...

[Beatle]

okay - not quite how I had planned on soaking this baby - but hey, always open to new ways…
