I thought this was kind of interesting. I bought one of John's pre-production Dubows last year and it was WAY too big. After 6 months and several wash/dry experiments (I mean washer and hot dryer) the fit is comfortable, broken in, and I think at least a size and a half, if not two sizes smaller. The arms are 2-3" shorter, and the shoulders are tight on me with anything heavier than a shirt. There has been no degradation of the jacket, knits, liner, or zipper, and it still smells pretty new. I treated the jacket with Pecards after a couple times through the wash just on general principle.
