@northsouthdenimguy I feel like the response via email is different (more customer service positive) than the response via social media...It personally doesn't bother me but I could see how it could be misinterpreted...
-
@rahrah12 yeah its got a little volume in the body still, but fits well across the chest/shoulders which is generally the way I size my shirts. The length shrunk up a bit, but I'd like to get a little more.
I am going to try to do another longer hot wash and a longer hot dry tonight and evaluate, but Railcar did a great job on both of my sashikos so I know it would be in good hands

I will agree with that..
Probably just PTSD from my dad yelling at me as a kid for asking stupid questions. I tend to read too much into people’s personalities, but it does affect how I approach them.

I’m right there with you

@hgering27 YEA, I ended up having my Sashiko tailored after some hot soaks and it was worth it. Wasn't bad at previous length but was worth the extra investment.
-
@rahrah12 yeah for sure, I like them much more now that they are hemmed. They look way better with jackets. Originally on their own they looked fine, but they just poked out too much under any of my jackets.
as soon as I get home from work, I am doing this second hot session and then if no luck, hopefully get sent out to Railcar next week

The one thing with these SJ hats that’s always concerned me it the plastic adjustment band. Wish they used a leather one…
Did a make shift repair using gorilla glue and clipped plastic from a package. Taking it fishing today. See how it goes.
-
@Mizmazzle ive since lost the hat unfortunately but I had one of the brown waxed canvas hats a few years back
I cannibalized the strap and metal assembly from an ebbets hat and used it in place of the plastic one
Highly doubtful they would still do this now that the company has grown so much but before the waxed hat I had the strap break on another hat and I stopped by the shop after work one day and they replaced it with a new plastic strap for me

I got my black denim Townes tonight. I bought an XL and it is quite roomy. I am going to give it a warm wash and dry to see if I can shrink it. Anyone else get theirs?
-
@fades-of-glory I just finished a second hot wash and machine dry on mine and it shrunk a pretty big amount I’d say, but yeah it was quite roomy to start
-
@hgering27 I’m happy with my results after a quick wash on warm and then about 20 minutes in the dryer on medium.
