IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo

[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.

@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.

@Setanta sick man!! That SOB is coming along mighty fine!!

Spent some time crawling around under my house this weekend. Got pretty dirty. Trying to resist washing again.

@Oaktavia Kind words from the High Magus of Denim @Mizmazzle thanks, love the shade of blue on yours

[Mizmazzle]

@Setanta such a fun jacket to rock.
I think the lighting made mine look lighter than it actually is. Almost has a vintage tone in that early evening light.
