Just received Todd's shirt and pants - how to weather?

Post by bfett81 »

First off, this stuff fits me PERFECTLY so kudos to Todd. The color of the shirt is bang on. The pants are honestly the best pair of pants I own. :notworthy:

So, I've heard you need to cold wash and line dry the shirt to get the stiffness out? What about the pants? Do they need a wash or should I just roll around in some gravel for a bit?

Right on for the shirt. But unless you want the pants to be single-use, keep 'em away from the washer or dryer. :)

Thanks. The shirt was kinda stiff when I put it on? Will washing it in cold water and hanging dry take care of that? What about fabric softener?
