      @mclaincausey:

      Just posting to say I was able to shrink mine down. Mine was tagged 40. I wear nothing in 40, 42 or 44 is my size. So maybe it was supposed to be baggy. Arms shortened up (will still cuff) and best of all the neck tightened up. Pleased as a peach.

      How did you shrink it? My XL has never been washed and I need a tighter neck and slimmer body, and would prefer not to lose any length. Hot wash and dryer?

        Hot wash, hot dry. Body shrunk a teeny bit, neck and sleeves a bit more.

        Think it, be it.

          Think I'll throw it up for trade first and if no takers, into the washer it goes.

            anyone having issues with theirs? the bottom part of the sweater and the 2 cuffs at the wrist area is getting very loose after some use? i've only used mine like 20 times and now it seems to have lost it's elastic kinda tightness.

              I haven't worn mine that much. Disappointing to hear. Do you roll your sleeves up?

                nope, i have never rolled up the sleeves or done anything. just wore it like a regular sweater. the bottom part does not seem to have any elasticity. as in its like a loose piece of cloth now. quite disappointed as well. just wondering if this is normal or is it just mine.

                  sorry about your "issue" volcano. let's see images of what you are talking about.  hard for me to picture it . . .

                      here's a pic of the bottom part of my sweater. as you can see, it's nearly parallel like a shirt already.

                        i'm sorry i don't really see what you are saying, it looks the way it looks on the product page (to me).

                        maybe give it a wash to see if it snaps back as these sorts of fabrics tend to stretch a bit with wear? sorry if not much help, just wanted to see what the "issue" is as i've thought about buying this item myself.

                          I really like this also. Was afraid it would be too short though.

                            MM - I mean the bottom part of the sweater is supposed to be tight/snug because of the elastic part isn't it? but mine, after having worn like less than 20 times, have suddenly lost it's elasticity and became like a piece of loose/regular cloth now. there seems to be no elasticity at all.

                              wash it, I bet it will snap back.

                                Z do you have one of these? They look great.  Not sure if it will be to short on me.

                                  No, I don't, so take my comments for just that. I do however have a couple Real McCoy's loop wheelers and they seem to shrink up nicely whenever I wash em, so thinking it might work for these too.

                                    Z was right. finally got the time to wash them. dump them inside the washer for a 40deg delicate wash and they've shrink overall. the fit feels snug and nice now.

                                    reignited my love for it.

                                        like the grey ones… how do these "Heavy" sweats compare to the "Ultra Heavy" sweats?
                                        Same? Lighter?
