I genuinely think cold wash will be the way to go and won’t cause any further shrinkage. If you wash it in hot by accident, that’s a different story.

[Mizmazzle]

I think you’re right man. Besides, this thing is already getting a little stale. Gonna need a wash at some point.

@seawolf the beast is getting tamed

@Heavy_blue Slowly but surely!

[bluemantra]

Any plans for a restock soon?

[Luijim78]

@bluemantra I think it's not very close, they restocked it 2/3 months ago

[bluemantra]

@Luijim78 oh wow, okay. Sold out fast then. Thanks

[Mizmazzle]

I was inspired by @seawolf and the slight funkiness coming from my jacket…so gave it a cold hand wash. Got a bit more shrink in sleeves and length.

Not a ton of noticeable difference in the photos. But to the eye in person, the denim has a lot more character now.

@Mizmazzle funky for sure mate

Mine definitely has less wear than you guys, but I spent the winter working in it in my print shop so it was due for a wash. Tossed it in the washer on gentle/cold with spin cycle and air dryed outside. I also feel like it shrunk a bit in the arms but the body feels the same thankfully. It's definitely nice and crispy again. Don't feel like I lost much indigo besides the electric blues lightening up.

@october-rust nice man! Love how a wash unlocks a bit of depth to the texture of the denim. Bit lighter blue too.

The League of Lefty is alive and strong!!

@Mizmazzle even if I don’t wear it as much as I’d like it is my favorite denim jacket I’ve ever owned by far! It’s a shame I’ll have to tuck it away for the summer soon.
