Water soak Shinki HH? Sure thing . . . right after I finish sandpapering my wife's diamond engagement ring and washing my car with paint thinner.

Cuz..it is impossible to find a perfect worn jacket with superior leather and hardware That fit your size...not to mention those good condition jacket won't come in cheap price tag either ..and then u have to worry about fixing the lining ,zipper ,button....etc.Seconded.
Why not simply buy some old worn out jacket instead, rather than ruining a new one? Shouldn't be a problem for the kind of money you'd flush down the drain (literally) by soaking a Shinki jacket.

Regarding shrinkage, I am in the process of getting my dream jacket, a Freewheeler San Mateo. Should I order it a bit lose to compensate for shrinkage?

Just follow this. These guys do a very fine work when it comes to age a jacket
That is one of the strangest things I have seen. Even more bizarre is the fact that you pay a premium for these guitars!Like buying jeans with holes in them already. Or one of those silly Fender guitars made to look old and worn.
Boring.
Just to contribute my personal experience I performed a blasphemy and machine-washed my real mccoys A2 in Shinki horsehide last weekend. Measurements before and after were the same. I even managed to stretch the length a little bit since the jackets was a little short.Regarding shrinkage, I am in the process of getting my dream jacket, a Freewheeler San Mateo.

When I saw the video showed above for the first time (it was about a couple of years ago) - it seemed quite interesting to me then, esp. if to exclude a couple of strange moments: when that guy bites off all original Waldes diamond zipper pullers to change them to "hand-made" crappy rings and when he uses sandpaper - both those moments initially looked (and still does) disgusting, that's just horrible anyway.Just follow this.
