Ship John

[Chibs]

Wearing a very dry Towns today.
Here are the measurements before wash:
Chest - 21.7
Shoulders -18
Length 31.3
Arms 26.4

After wash n dry:
Chest - 21.4
Shoulders - 17.8
Length 30
Arms - 25

As you can see, length shrunk more than width which was contrary to what SJ projected. I think this worked in my favour. The arm length and overall length was definitely too long for my taste. The Ship John silhouette seems to be longer / skinnier than what I’m used to from Ironheart. I plan on wearing this piece a lot along with all my other shirts . Pretty excited about the prospect of it softening / loosening up as well as Evo.

Edit: here’s a before wash / dry pic:

@Chibs Looks amazing man welcome to the party and let the crocking begin lol

[Chibs]

@roydub87 Thank you! I didn’t consider that today when I put on my white T..

[Gianny Boy]

@Chibs excellent before and after pics, looking good!

[roydub87]

@Chibs you have no more white tees …. They are future light blue tie dye shirts

[Chibs]

@Gianny-Boy thanks! It’s almost like 2 different shirts.

@Brock
Absolutely need this. I love the pocket placement.
Anyone know the usual drop time? Sometimes they schedule the drop and announcer and other times they just go live with no notice. I just forget what time is the most common, like 10 or 11 pst? I need to be refreshing just in case.

@Brock what a jacket!! I think that ship john has often some of the coolest patina examples.

Do they make short and long versions of the Ramblin?
Gotta check the measurements. I thought that theres quite a lot going on with the handwarmer pockets. As long as they sit at the right height I think they are cool. Bitten by the SJ bug.
I was looking forward to the Denim Wills, but Mike showed the sample in one of the livestreams few months back and said that it might take a lot longer after all. That they were experimenting with a heavier denim but it didn't come to be. Don't quote me on that though. I might remember wrong. I dunno if anyone knows any better.
I would try* to get the Ramblin if thats now actually being made.

@Brock that’s a magnificent specimen! The design on the ramblin’ jackets is really great. Not sure I could compete in a release these days, but maybe if they ever do preorders again, I could finally size it right.

@Heritage_Guy he posted that they will announce all of that info well in advance for this drop. Believe it will be a preorder also - CORRECTION - Not a preorder.

Looks like the baby of a chore coat and type 3.

[Northman]

@Chibs Hmmmm! I don't have one of those yet!

[Brock]

@sabergirl I saw this an immediately thought of you as it was “one that got away” it’s really a great piece!

[freepickin]

Man I love double front shorts, would be glad to add another to the collection

[Northman]

@freepickin I thought they were waxed canvas first heh. 9oz cotton herringbone apparently.

[mecken88]

Yeah the denim ramblin is totally a jacket I would love to own!
I have the waxed canvas version and it’s great. I love the pocket placements.

So a denim version would be great, have been wanting it since 2023 when then made some minor updates.
But it’s always tricky with Mikes “really soon” hehe some releases have gone live just hours after a statement like that. But others have gone weeks with no update. So it’s hard to know what really soon, really means?🫣‍️

Amazing jacket though, hoping to own one some day!🫶

Here’s mine. It’s nowhere near as worn as Berger’s but it’s comfy and I love the broken twill
