      @Ral1121. They have been washed so most of the shrinkage is gone. If you like them just the way they are, when it's time to wash them just wash them with cold water and no spin. You will not experience any more shrinkage. In my opinion you can go ahead and start wearing them. And definitely no dryer. Just hung dry

        Looks good! How does the weight feel on this? Very cool color variation.

          @RubyRae It’s 10oz and feels like it, midweight, not as hefty as UHF and not as light as a chambray.

            @yannis I decided to go ahead and give them a room temp soak. Glad I did as I lost 1.5” in inseam length. Waist and thigh were negligible. Wearing them today already as they were dry over night

              @Denimhead-0 Corlection just dropped a new batch of these in long and short sleeve. Had to grab one.

                @cyclops . My size 32s are very comfortable. They were unwashed and I have been wearing them raw for about 7 weeks most days. They have yet to be washed. I never soak. They don't seem to have streched but may have shrunk very slughtly with wear.

                Battled with my 25 oz, won the war!

                    @cyclops will do mate,
                    Ended up using a $20 voucher from past purchases and then scored another $30 voucher from this purchase plus “free shipping” so that helps soften the blow.
                    I do hold a vip status with Corlection so I gain points much quicker than when I first started buying through them.
                    Denimhead has had me searching for this shirt for a while now and yesterday I found it. So pretty stoked

                    This will make it my 3rd long sleeve shirt from Samurai.

                      @Rustygate37 yeah that makes sense. I am sadly 80 bucks away from VIP status too, spent way too much with them. The shirt looks amazing! I also heard that they will be stocking the 21oz 888s soon as well when it releases, so was holding out for that 😕

                        Another vip Corlection customer here, I close my eyes when I think of the amount it took to get that benefit 😂

                                @Brian i really want to go down to the store to try on stuff like IH's deck jackets but havent been able to. I think thats why sometimes a physical store is good.

                                  I made a trip from Brisbane just to go there and to blue works vintage, it was worth it for Corlection alone. I've gotten quite a few things from them, even when sometimes it's cheaper to buy direct from Japan. The store and crew are great. Their range of Samurai and IH products is amazing and it's great to try a bunch of the cuts on.

                                      Lookin’ good @worn2fade . I ended up grabbing a pair of these, and have been loving the freedom of movement. Finally found something baggy enough 🤣 for my assets

                                        @sabergirl thanks! Glad you’re enjoying them. Nothing comes close to this comfort haha. Did you get these 19oz ones or a different pair? They’ve released a few different ones since our last conversation.

                                            Ended up getting a pair of s2000hxii's in 16oz gl3. Had a bunch of rewards I didn't want to expire at another store so got them for just a little over 100$. Haven't worn them at all yet but they are next in rotation! These definitely fit me much better than the ultra wide. Will add a picture or two when I get them on.
