Being unsanforised and "once-washed", will the Armoury Nigel Caboun jeans shrink at all without being thrown in the dyer? The care instructions state: "We suggest choosing your normal size for the best fit, or take one size up for shrink to fit." It's the shrink to fit part that's a bit ambiguous. Thoughts/experiences?

Edit for clarity: The Armoury listing states they'll shrink with the dryer (duh), but is ambiguous about air drying: "Cold wash, inside out. Hang dry (will shrink up to 3cm in waist and 4cm in length if machine dried)."

Yes. Why do you want to do your denim in a dryer?

I bought a 34 and shrunk it down a little bit. Shrunk more length wise, which was good for me since the jeans are pretty long. I'd reckon you could shrink a full size down if you go hard. I did medium heat for 20 minutes. I'd buy the bigger size and try to shrink it in the dryer. Just check on the jeans every 10min so you don't over shrink.

It looks like they've updated the safari jacket design. Anyone know if there are more coming other than the natural linen and brown cotton?

Looks great!!

Just those two fabrics at the moment, however the full range of causal jackets are available MTO in other clothes like the jacket above! We'll be focusing on the Safari II next week, with more information on the changes etc.

Can you tell me what size Safari II the model is wearing (and their chest size) on the site?

I typically wear a S or 38/48 and I see the M is pretty close to S
