For posterity, I tub washed/soaked my ring ring chainstitch shirt last night in mildly warm water (think a tad over room temp). I hand agitated with a splash of woolite dark and let it soak for 25min or so, drained, did a quick rinse/dunk to remove the bulk of detergent, drained, soaked for another 15min or so.

I lost close to 1/2" on the P2P on an XL. It started around 23" and now sits a hair over 22.5" (which is spec)

@avsmusic1 very cool.. thanks for posting. As a denim.. especially one with a deep dye.. you'll see that number move a bit with wear. Denim tends to "grow" a bit as you wear it, and then contract right after a wash. But it should stay in that general zone.

Yup, we'll have FW and Four Season too.

Most of these fabrics have pretty good quantity on them. The main restriction is that Hertling can only make about 200-250 units total before closing. That's just their labor capacity. So if you dig something new or you want to reorder something you have, I'd definitely encourage you to get the order in sooner than later. I'm going to send them orders in batches of 50, and once they hit their limit, that's it.

Uploading photos now, but if you have ever owned a Walt trouser and liked it, then you owe it to yourself to buy either the Navy or Khaki Cotton-Cashmere. It's impossibly luxe, came from Larusmiani, and was the best biz-caz fabric that they ever offered. For $175, it's an absolutely steal.

That Petrol Khyber is calling to me. I will try to hold myself to only 3 pairs total. HA!

If we plan to wash and hang dry cotton walts - any permanent contraction around the thigh after washing? or just a bit in the length?
