As discussed, I washed and dried the Towns last night along with my 21oz modified type 3. Really wanted those sleeves to shrink but I’ll save that for an other thread.
Started by turning the Towns inside out and soaking it in hot water for 2-3 minutes. The water turned yellow. Then transferred it to the washing machine where I ran it for for 38 minutes no spin and second down from the absolute hottest setting.
Once that finished I transferred to the dryer and put it on high (one down from the hottest “sanitize” setting for 20 minutes.
Then took it out and measured. It was still wet so I hung it up.
Fast forward to now, it’s still a bit damp so I moved it outside and hung it on my birch. Not sure if the measurements will get much different once it’s completely dry? But noticed quite a bit of shrinkage where I wanted it the most. 


I’ll update you guys with numbers once it’s totally dry. All in all, happy I did this so far. I should have done this long ago with my type 3 too!

Washing and drying tonight!
. Initially I was just going to wear the crap out of it and then wash but it doesn’t look like it’ll shrink that much with this batch anyways.
