@Daniel-San
Actually curtains in boxes make the fades

[Jbarb7]

@Jcaz6996 does this denim actually soften much? Still can’t do up all my buttons had it for a year or so but not wasted yet….

[Jbarb7]

Not washed! Not wasted ‍️

[Jcaz6996]

@Jbarb7 it certainly does mate.
I’ve noticed after a wash the whole jacket is more relaxed the sleeves are not so bunched up in the honeycombs and it’s tricky to get it to stand on its own . Tried to take a few pictures on the weekend and it just kept flopping over

@Jbarb7 I’ve never had a problem with doing the buttons up. Mad you can’t after a year ..
Have you worn it a lot ?

[Jbarb7]

@Jcaz6996 not worn it loads but they are so stiff not really tried to do them up much. The third one down is fine so use that mostly

[Jbarb7]

@Jcaz6996 yours looks great!! The fading is incredible

[Jbarb7]

@Jcaz6996 did you just cold soak it ?

[Kasi]

@Jbarb7

Just do a warm soak you will be fine.

[Jbarb7]

@Kasi cool will do

[Jcaz6996]

[Jcaz6996]

@Jbarb7 you’ve had it just over a year but it’s still dry ?

@Jbarb7 ok bud , I just soaked mine in the bath Hot water not too hot somewhere between 30 - 40c and let it soak for about a hour gave it a little agitation . Removed it and hung it on the line to dry.
I put mine on damp to set the creases in the arms for about 30mins then put it back on the line to dry.
