I'll try a long, hot soappy soak first and make to agitate it a lot. I'd rather avoid any marbling and, given the shrink results of this jacket on the first page, that might be enough.

Before and after. Did a hot soak for an hour then a hot wash. It marbled a bit but I am pleased with the results. May do another hot soak to try and get a little more shrink. "IMG_20191116_075053.jpg"

+1 post soak fit pic is brilliant. Love the length and trim silhouette.

Marbling is hard to avoid and not necessarily an ugly issue anyway. Abrasion lines in unfortunate places can be worse. They all work themselves out with wear and tear anyway.
