Will there be any shrinkage to boiled wool if cold washed? I know theoretically there shouldn't be any, but I heard very different things about this... Please help!

I washed a boiled wool jacket recently...warm water, then threw in the dryer on high for an hour. I thought it had shrunk, but then after wearing it once or twice, it seemed to stretch back out again.Originally posted by Faye View PostWill there be any shrinkage to boiled wool if cold washed?

now that's risky! so you'd say that it shrinks, but not considerably, right? maybe like a cotton sweater after the first wash?Comment

Ruined one of my favourite boiled wool CDG jackets by washing it in the machine and then drying it.
Now it only just fits my wife...

If you're so desperate to wash it why not do a hand wash in cold water?ENDYMA / Archival fashion & Consignment

Agreed. Either hand wash in cold water or wash in the delicate cycle with cold water, and don't dry it.

that's what I intend to do anyway, but I'm afraid that even then it'll shrink too much. But I think that it'll help if I let it dry flat afterwards. Will do that and see what happens. :)Originally posted by michael_kard View PostComment

Be careful.
You and I have both had positive results with washing & drying leather, so I would love your feedback on this.
How many sizes would you say it shrunk?
I have been considering washing one of my CDG boiled wool pea coats. Its not quite 1 size too big on me, I typically use it as an overcoat layered over a blazer, but would rather wear it as an every day winter coat, since I rarely wear blazers these days.Comment

Properly shrank down.... from a mens sz M (sz48) to a small women's size - probably the equivalent to a women's uk sz8.
From memory I washed it on a 40 degree wash and I was completely ruined.
