      Has anyone washed this and had any issues? This has happened to mine…1 x 20 degree wash  30 min cycle, 800 spin...it seem the weave is so loose that the material sort of opens up. My machine is perfectly fine too, no other issues. @Alex and @Giles any other reported issues? I don't want to snip the loose threads with scissors for fear of making it worse, but I also can't pull the threads through the back…

        Not something that I have seen before.  You can pull the threads to the back side easily. take a needle and cotton, from the back of the fabric take the needle through the same hole as the rogue yarn, leaving a tag end on the reverse, put the need back through the same hole, leaving a loop of cotton, pull both ends of the cotton through until you have a little loop.  Put the rogue yarn into the loop and continue pulling.  Voila. it's done.

        My description is pretty crap, so I made a pulled yarn and fixed it.  Here it is on vid…

          Washed my work shirt version twice already. No issues.

            @Giles I gave it a go…blimey I need to get my eyes tested! Took a few goes but here are the results
            Surface

            Reverse…I tied off the loose thread and cut the excess off

            The other snag results aren't quite as good as the thread is a loop
            Surface

            Reverse…I couldn't tie off or cut this one

            This material is such a loose weave, I think it will always be prone to snagging.i didn't think threads would loosen in a light wash though. I'm sure there are always anomalies, you just there will be less on a £250 shirt I thought a quick wash might have closed the weave, but no luck.

              Well done Stu, not trying to dodge the issue, but embrace the Wabi Sabi

                Thanks Giles. I actually found it really therapeutic. I've actually just noticed there is one xxl workshirt back in stock…fighting...the...urge...

                  Went with a large initially, but just a bit to short. Got my exchange for a an XL in the mail today, very pleased!

                  Apologies for the random photo order, not my intention but changing it via the phone interface is proving tedious.

                      Just ordered this one from the Outlet.  My wife thinks I secretly want to be a cowboy because of all my western shirts but at this price I cant resist.  There really is no secret.  I WANT TO BE A COWBOY!
