We are about the size. I'm 5'8" 145lbs. I found mine to be a bit big and shrunk mine in the dryer a bit. Nothing special care-wise. I simply turn the jacket inside out when washing it. (Cold water)

That is what worked for me. I would use warm/cold selection on your washer as a last resort.

No need to vinegar soak it, it's already pre-Mercinized.

Cold wash, and gentle cycle.
