This 2XL is Ginormous. About to go Nuclear Hot and shrink the Fvck out of it. Wish me luck

[Northman]

@Denimhead-0 Mine should arrive soon too. I am actually glad if it is roomy so I can then put it in the hot wash aswell and not worry about shrinking it too much.

[mecken88]

@Denimhead-0 looking forward the after picture on how much you’ll manage to force shrink it haha🫣
Hope it turn out great!🫶

@Denimhead-0 it's definetely running large but looks like a good starting point for some hot washes!!

[Denimhead 0]

Did a scalding hot soak followed by a hot wash w no spin, followed by 10 mins in dryer, checking fit, followed by 10 mins again with another check, and another final 10 min dryer round for a total of 30 mins.

Came out w 1” shrink in p2p, Shoulders, and almost an inch in sleeves. Lost 1.5” in length.

So much better

@Denimhead-0 great fit !! But still more like a shacket no?

@FlavourFade

Yes, like it that way as I tend to wear my flannels more.

Since I accidentaly got a Ship John Wills jacket V2 I join this threat. We visited another forum member and his wife this weekend, when we where in Den Haag and Rotterdam and while I got a tour through the IH closet he wanted me to try on this Wills V2 jacket, because, sadly, it is to big for him.

The jacket is a 2XL and it fits quite nice. The backview looks a bit roomy, but I guess that is the cut. My wife liked it and the price was basically a present. The only donwside is, that I am facing temperatures well above 20° C the next few month, so that it will not get to much wear in the forseeable future.

@Cole Sweet! Looks great

[dirtyframer]

The sashiko shirts are in stock!

[Chibs]

@dirtyframer thanks, I clicked and just purchased my first SJ thingee! Was expecting it to say “out of stock when I pushed “buy it now”. Perhaps I’m dreaming though.

[dirtyframer]

@Chibs glad you got one in time!

Should I?? That is my birthday. Is this some sort of sign?!?

We did it past Chibs… We did it.
I’m pretty eff’n excited!🫨
Just sitting here staring at that photo. It’s those brass snaps that get me.

[roydub87]

Yeah I was gonna say these went live again….. kinda wanna buy another one but I currently have my 437 filling a God sized hole in my heart

[nixage]

Just got mine as well. XL. Had to give it a good warm wash. Fits much better but I'm also wondering if I should get it hemmed in length a bit.

[FlavourFade]

Missed the shirt again. Checked their page like three times a day for the last weeks and now they went life when I am asleep

[Chibs]

I was curious about what the difference between Dobby & Sashiko so I googled this:

So does this mean that the fabric from these shirts are actually hand stitched?
