Now it only just fits my wife...
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.

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.
Be very careful with woolyou can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter...
