@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.
-
@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!!
-
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?
-
Yes, like it that way as I tend to wear my flannels more.

Lots of Indigo in there

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 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. -
@Chibs glad you got one in time!
