    @Indigone:

    @Jim What type of sewing do you do? Can you show your sewing rig?

    @Jim:

    Hey @hajduk Thanks! Trying to get back in the routine

    Just some hemming. I bought a 60s model Mitsubishi chainstitch machine a couple years back. Giles and Alex gave me a weekend crash course in Hemming 101. I do it on the side for the shop where I work in Düsseldorf (Stuff) cheers

  • RE: Washing your duds in suds

    Well some more feedback came in. Since I wasn’t tagged I stopped looking after the second day lol.
    I know all kinds of peeps. From hardcore to softies. Working in a denim shop you get all kinds.
    Of course I wash my jeans and shirts and have never worried about it but I would also point out that an enlisted man on a carrier didn’t have to buy his jacket. I just wanted to make sure there wasn’t going to be any drastic shrinkage or anything else unexpected. Turning my jeans inside out and not using bleach is just common sense and a little wear and tear is what we’re going for anyway isn’t it?
    Keep it coming fellas…

    Yeah I was thinking about spinning at 200 which is the lowest setting. Thanks for the input @BloodnThunder

    @UnTucked:

    Crazy guy checking in…

    I machine washed and dried an N-1 jacket a couple of years back... There was some slight shrinkage, but alas I didn't take measurements. I assume that could be avoided if washing on cold and line drying though.

    I've not had any issues with the alpaca shedding after the wash/dry, aside from the typical amount it sheds anyway even when new.

    @neph93 @UnTucked
    Hey Guys, good to hear back from you!
    Thanks for the input. Yeah I think that is my main concern, that the layers separate. I once washed a Daun jacket and some of the feathers got redistributed in the confines of the jacket. So now there are some places where there’s no insulation and in other places too much. My vest doesn’t really “need” to be washed. I just kind of want to see how it will look, fade/patina afterwards.
    I haven’t made up my mind yet but I’m 70% at this point that I’ll do it. Will send pics after to show the outcome.
    Until then,  😎

  • Washing your duds in suds

    Hi everyone,
    I know I don’t visit the forum often but I hope it’s ok still to pop in occasionally to see what’s up or ask the random question; which I’m about to do.
    I have a IHV-22 in Navy from around W2016 which has been worn quite often (more than quite).

    I’m thinking about giving it a wash after this winter ends and was wondering if anybody has any tips, experience or any other advice to share or washing deck jackets (vests).

    P. S.
    Shout out to The guys in service! Thanks for the help with my recent purchase. I’m very pleased  😉

    @UnTucked:

    It's all good…

    Most of the world has been frozen over, so I don't think anyone would have gotten much wear out of it anyway.

    @Jim ya ready?

    Ready brother! @UnTucked
