[Mizmazzle]

@pjroo33 thanks bro!! The sleeves are crunchy and stiff still. They should settle down with some wear. Can't wait to start hammering this one! Not sure i'll ever get to the Tricotine at this rate haha

[Mister_Brue]

@Mizmazzle OMG, yes! Looks like you can still make this your own. Stoked for you. Welcome to the club.

[Mizmazzle]

@Mister_Brue Oh man!! So stoked to be in the club!! Yeah, it only has the lightest of wear on it! In a month it will be totally worn to my actions!!

Thinking maybe to wash it and start it fresh and clean. I'm thinking a cold hand wash only. But out of curiosity, have many of you experienced any shrink with their wash routines?

[goldstone0]

@Mizmazzle mine shrunk 0.5cm in the body & sleeves with a 40C machine wash and another CM in a 60C wash (I did this because I'm usually a small but could only get a medium).

[JunkPants]

@Mizmazzle Nice, feels only right that you have one of these!

[Mister_Brue]

@Mizmazzle I got mine after about five wears, so basically new. Since I always layer it, I decided not to wash it straight away, though there may be a wash incoming since I am now wearing it to work.

The above answer looks pretty comprehensive though. I’d be scared to wash anything at 60, even if it was too large.

[Mizmazzle]

@JunkPants that’s awful kind of you to say!

[Mizmazzle]

@goldstone0 @Mister_Brue
Thanks for the deets. Super helpful. Think I’ll go with a cold hand wash. Love the fit. (Though the arms are a bit long par for the IH course)

[Memphisakers]

@Mizmazzle Looks like a good fit! You getting to wear it or is it still in jail

[twin]

@Mizmazzle Now you are on board with the 409. Like the snow pic.

[Mizmazzle]

@Memphisakers haha. It’s in jail. But I’ve got a few solid Dark Arts game plans.

1. Mountains got pounded with snow. Morgan really wanted to go skiing, but the house was a disaster. I offered to clean the house and get ready for tomorrow since we’re hosting, while she went and had an epic pow day. Figure that’s solid jailbreak credit.

2. I pull out the “un passable deal on the absolute rare item” story. (She’s heard that one a hundred times)

3. I have a fun little game I like to play where I just start wearing the new item and act like everything is normal until she finally notices (she barely notices anything even when it’s happening right in front of her) When she finally does I respond in a hyperbolic way as though I’ve had it a long time. “Whaaaat?? This??” Then hopefully we have a laugh at my quirky ways!

@Mizmazzle #3 is my go to. Just have to time the first wear right

[CosmoSix5]

[Mizmazzle]

@Daniel-San thanks Daniel! Catch me in the boots thread soon. Have something I’m really excited to show you!

#3 is living dangerously, gents

[Mister_Brue]

@Mizmazzle That just means you’ll have killer stacks!

#3 Bro. It’s already got some wear after all…

[Mizmazzle]

@Mister_Brue excellent point!! Of course I’ve had this for awhile, look at the bow creases, honey bear!!

[Mizmazzle]

Turns out there’s an option #4

We’re chilling on the couch post thanksgiving hungover. Morgan is buying all kinds of Black Friday stuff. She looks at me, feeling a bit guilty about all she’s bought today. “Are you buying anything?” she asks hopefully…. Well, if you insist!
