Yeah, you're right about that, I was just excited to get it, haha. Here it is after a warm wash and a day of wear:

Shrunk a bit in length, but not in the chest, which is great. Collar sits more naturally now too. Looks a lot better overall, I think.

I looked back through the last few pages but couldn't find the answer: What color(s) is the MA-1 available in for ordering?

Is it only going to be available in Gore-tex? I was hoping for something very similar the U.S. military issued MA-1 jacket.

Looks great. Still not sure how I feel about that pocket though. Prolly pick up the white once it drops.

I'd decided I would never buy one from the previous pictures, but this has brought it back onto the radar. I just gotta sell some of my old shirts to make room.

I'd probably go with a medium. Best way is to take measurements and compare them to the OCBD size chart, though.

Someone asked for a pic with the collar buttoned:

measurements on http://graphr.net/toj/ lead me to probably a medium, but I hav no idea how much shinkage will affect those measurements. Most of my shirts are 21" ptp, so if the medium shrank any in the chest it would be too small. Shoulder measurements seem small, but I figure I should just go by ptp measurements and trust in the ToJ pattern.
