Gave my SExIH18 jacket it's first machine wash.  I'm actually surprised how faded its looking because it wasn't quite this contrasty prior to the wash.  About 1 fall/winter wear out of it.  I absolutely love this jacket.  This is the sample version I purchased from the Self Edge sale a while back.  It was originally waxed but after the wash most of the waxing has come off.

This particular one was maybe a year - year and a half ago on the rawdenim subreddit.  The other one you'll hear about was the warehouse sale where they used que pasa to sell a bunch of stuff.  That was also maybe a year ago.

I got my favorite hoodie and one of my favorite shirts from that que pasa sale... good times. I wonder if anyone used that site other than for that one event..

Thanks Max.

Enell is washing his pair this weekend or giving them a soak. I have been on the fence as well. I really like how my pair looks at this stage. but my combs has started to crack. I tend to get that on all my jeans. Even on the ones I have washed regularly.

I need to put some stitches into them to keep the cracking at bay. :)

They do not smell or anything but a first wash is going to happen soon.

New IH 21 oz jacket.  It's very solid and well-constructed as you would expect.  I'll be wearing this for years.  I'll probably do an initial hot wash to get shrink out.  Very happy with it.

^

if it's the IH-526J it will not shrink, not noticeably (that a word??).

Posted (edited)

My IH jacket actually shrunk up a touch.  Not nearly as bad as unsanforized obviously but it is now much snugger around the chest.  Actually makes it a bit harder to wear with a hoodie or a thick flannel since I washed it.

 

-edit-

 

Mine is 23oz not the signature 21oz, though.  I actually don't have experience with their signature denim.

^It's air drying now...It does not seem to have changed very much so far.

Yeah, that was to be expected. Maybe use a tumble dryer?

Anyway, I just recently looked at Giles jacket..... This has become such a great piece!! You got a lot to look forward to!

So I got my IH-666s's a few days ago and absolutely love the fit!  Here are some fit pics post wash. Size 30. My dog wanted in on the fun and then got bored a few seconds later. I can't wait to put some serious wear in these!
