Another monthly update, seeing a bit more marbling on the back

You can also see how much more wear the left cuff as I wear a watch

Just stumbled upon this thread and wanted to add some progress photos

I am at about 18 months of wear on my 295-BB

Finished top 50 in last year’s redline rally and doing the second year now with it in the (re)dline category

Just did a first machine wash and it really took away a lot of the dirt and grime that was on it. The contrast popped quite significantly post wash.

Hoping to have one of the more worn in black shirt/jackets out there and showcase this awesome fabric’s character.

Some photos from the monthly updates!

A lot of the buttons have lost its plating and have turned to a nice golden hue

A few hand washes in the first year, did its first machine wash a few weeks ago

With half a year left in the contest and with the current wear pattern, I am thinking of incorporating regular machine washes (once a month or so) and see how it does. I was surprised at how much dirt and grime was covering the shirt when it came out of the machine cycle.

20 months of wear now with 4 more to go to complete a two year journey
