                          Hi everyone:
                          I am new to IH. One question for the experts. I've been told by the IH staff there is no need to soak this jacket before initial wear, but everyone around here seems to have. I wonder why. Is it to soften the stiffness? To have it shrunk to its real size? Wouldn't it be better not to soak to getter sharper fades?
                          Thanks!

                            You'll get some shrinkage with a hot soak. This material fades like mad regardless of soaking/washes.

                              I didn't experience a lot shrinkage, but the jacket is so stiff (almost unwearable) at first that soaking seemed like a good idea. And the soak makes it even stiffer at first - you'll get mad fades in no time in this fabric, no matter what you do. But to prevent the fabric from damage I'd definitely soak.

                                As Neph says, the duck will fade with high contrast regardless of whether it has been soaked/washed beforehand.

                                Initial soaks/washes help to bed in the stitching along with removing any shrinkage so at least one dunk in water is advisable but you could start breaking it in with view to giving it a quick & cool soak after it has started adapting to your shape.

                                  Thanks for your insight folks. That was helpful. I think I'll go for that initial soak.
                                  Cheers

                                          I'm not sure we have any indigo/indigo duck left but if we do, it will be a @VaterundSohn decision, not mine…
