@SamD

Came across these images in my search for info on this particular model so figured good to post here for anyone else researching this coat.

Someday maybe...

@Matt 1000%. I picked up an old Drybak Mackinaw last fall while on a trip to NYC, and the chest pockets were so confortable to hold my arms up while resting my hands for warmth. Underated setup on a coat.

After wearing a couple times, did the first soak in mildly warm water. Inside out and no agitation. Did the towel roll dry to get excess water out and hung dry. Didn’t expect to see fade lines after that first soak. Guess I have a lot to learn.

@Denimhead-0 just to follow up, that was the answer thanks

20th in work shirt yes please

I've got three weeks of wear in my wood working shop, no washes. Already seeing some slight fades at the normal wear points. I'm definiely excited to see this thing get it's character and all that wood dust and shavings will help it along

They look so good. I'd love to see these come back around at some point.

I'm glad I held on those ridiculous prices on the OG 20th that recently popped up on eBay

Just got my first pair of 25oz with this cut today and shit yeah these are something else lol. Had to use a wood dowel on the button holes to stretch 'em out for ease of buttoning. Plan was to wear them for a few wears in my workshop for the next few days, get 'em a bit dirtied up then do a soak to release some of that starch.
No joke on these lol.

nice slub on that type 2

Got mine so dusty in the workshop today. It's going to be interesting maintaining them with cleanliness while balancing washes. lol

Yeah that jacket whew

@Denimhead-0 I may dip into the 888 if they ever re-release.

I used a wooden dowel to work them a bit for that first fitting but yeah they've loosened up quite a bit after a few weeks, and now slip on and of easily enough. They find their seating basically

I had them hem my 666 i got about a month ago before shipping. Left about an inch to .5 of an inch of what I normally go for to account for shrinkage. Worked out fine.
