      i have a large that's a bit short on me - anyone have an xl which is a big bit on them and care to swap - i've worn mine a handful of times and washed once i believe - was fine in length before the wash, then it shrank up a slight bit. thanks!

        no experience per say, but indigo dipped / overdyed garments usually don't have any shrinkage left in them. on the product page there is usually language along the lines of:

        •Dyeing process has removed all shrinkage

        but will see if anyone else chimes in to correct me or cosign my information.

        best of luck

          U might be correct about a bit of shrinkage. I think @derivative666  has one I'll ask him.

              trickhell you might want to sell it and get a smaller size.  sweats pretty much always stretch out, and this has been dyed in indigo so it's probably had all effective shrinkage out.

              sure someone might claim that after boiling it to hell and back they got 1/8" shrinkage, but it's going to snap right back and then some.

                Thanks 4 da input @derivative666 .

                I agree with Ben sweats always stretch out & the dye process usually gets rid of all shrinkage . . . but 2 guys with the item says it shrunk so if u lookin 4 just a hair smaller u might be good.

                Give us a fit flick.  Way 2 much text about a fit I haven't even seen

                Hahahaha

                  @grandmasterben you are wrong the sweatshirt will definitely shrink up if it is washed in a machine.

                    Unfortunately,  I don't have your answer. Maybe cold wash air dry but, I am not certain. I would start by hand washing with some agitation.

                      i dont have any ih loopwheeled sweatshirts, but… my regular strike gold shrunk a bunch in the length and nothing really at all in the width and a little in the sleeves.  My indigo dyed one did not shrink at all even after a hot wash and a bout in the dryer.  ymmv

                                      Yeah, I thought maybe there was specific story behind your warning to not leave them in the sun. Practical advice in any case. Nevermind.
