No point risking destruction on a shrink

@goosehd not harsh at all. Trying to chart a best course of action. Think alteration might be best option

@don_pipone @goosehd Thank you SO MUCH. I tried shrinking some RGT Stantons last year when I lost the first round of weight and they became marble madness... couldn't bear to to do that to my 777's. Honestly debating taking this path or bringing them to Railcar to alter. Doesn't sound like there's much chance from a dryer after the OD process. Does putting leather conditioned on after the dryer help with the leather patch?

@Giles thanks. Now to pick which jacket gets pimped with snaps?

@goosehd thanks so much. Any temperature matter? Lay flat or in a bucket? Also, just out of curiosity, how/why does soaking prevent the vertical fades (which I hate)? Thanks so much for all of your wisdom.

@goosehd Interesting... how long do I need to soak them before washing? Will hot dry do anything? Thank you.

Hey Team. I bought a pair of these six months ago... and love them. Only problem is that I've lost just enough weight... that they're starting to get a bit flappy. I want to hot wash/hot dry them to try and shink them... but don't want to make them streaky (haven't washed them yet). But also not sure it will even work as doesn't the OD process remove the shrink already? Thought... they've prob loosened up from six months of wear. Sorry to ramble, but any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What? Thank you!!! Will you please let me know closer to the date... so I can jump on it? Also, team question... should I put GA Snaps on the D-shaped patch pocket my navy lightweight N1 OR on the side pockets of my lightweight blue bomber? Also, gonna do some shirts etc, but can only afford to do one jacket.

Thanks so much

@Alex Just checking if there was any updates on the buttons and larger snaps? Thanks

@Alex What happened?

@Alex Thanks.

@AdamJ Hey. Was just checking in on this?

Any more buttons or snaps coming for a restock?

Gotcha. Thanks.

Wait... how did you guys get these? How do I order one?

@AdamC Ha. You don’t need to tell me twice. It’s top of my list for the season. I know you said it was your fave in the video too.

I just wish it was a CPO. I love mine, but wish I could put my hands in some pockets. Even thought about trying to put em in after the fact.

@AdamJ thanks. I’m gonna go one the hunt for one. So you just leave that pocket unbuttoned and use the buttonneire instead?

P.s. Wearing this shirt in my profile pic. Been wearing on and off for over a year… but still haven’t washed.
