I have worn mine often over the last year and have not had this problem. Maybe it was a defective section of fabric? I would write to the company because I contacted them about a sizing issue and they were responsive.

I agree. Write the company and Amazon about the issue. Should be able to get your money back from Amazon.

This is my second one. My first got stretched out after about 8 months of almost daily in chlorine. Second one is just faded but not stretched out yet. The chlorine takes its toll but I really like the zip up feature since I had shoulder trouble.

I only wore mine once cuz it wasn't warm enough. maybe you should contact the seller.

I do not think I have worn it 12 times. I prefer one I bought that has some insulation. So no in response to your question re stretching out.

I would like to know too. I did the first pair in a regular wash, with other clothes, getting the raveling results I sdpoke about. Wish the company (Amazon and/or the company that makes the sleeves) could provide suggestions/answers for us.

HiI wore them and then wore a long sleeve. The only real downfall is they 'roll' near the armpit but not much. Sorry, I could not help more!

Hi, the neck isnot a problem for me, but the rest of the shirt takes a little effort, specially to take off, that is my experience, but I still recommend it, just take a bigger size

No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms. Definitely not all the way to the shoulders, so they would not work with a sleeveless shirt/top. Generally mine stay up pretty well, although I find they are slipping more with the more I wear them & the older they get. It will also depend on what size you have, how large (and long) your arms are, and how active you are while wearing them. I have used mine hiking & bike riding and have loved them; they actually make my arms feel cooler and I love the way they protect the top of my hands in addition to my arms. I've recommended them to friends and have already purchased 3 pairs myself.

My son loves his, and has been wearing it as an outer layer over other shirts (tees and turtle necks) this whole fall. I would think biggest issue might be getting too warm once you were indoors. That, and getting a size with some extra room for the layering.

Mine fits fine. It hasnt stretched out at all. Could you maybe throw it in the dryer for a few minutes? Thay may help.

We are the same size and I ordered a large and it is very tight across the shoulders ....I also found this shirt to be extremely hot and have managed to only wear it twice. I bought other shirts from Merrell and Reddington that were true to size and extremely comfortable.

I would suggest that you contact EvoShield. (Go to their website and get the contact info.) My son's shirt had stitching that unraffled. They replaced it after I contacted them, maybe they can help you out as well. Good luck!

Sizing was a guess, I do know you want these things to fit tight, so they almost feel too tight, in order to provide support. I normally wear medium/large sized clothing, and a medium sleeve fit nice 'n snug. Hope that helps....

I had the same problem. I couldn't get it to stretch. I quit using it. Poor product in my opinion.

I was referring to my dress shirt neck size - I buy 18 1\2" to 19 " neck size dress shirts but they are slightly loose so I don't choke with the top buttoned - you can purchase one of these if you like and see if when they pump up to expand the length the swelling in the middle of the collar does not choke you - be careful is my only added thought - have someone possibly with you when you try the unit if you purchase one - Amazon will let you send back if you feel it does not work :-)

Make sure you measure the outermost point. We made a measuring mistake and ordered one too small. The return was easy and we got another one. It fit just right. I can only speculate, but based on my experience I would get a bigger size, because even the correct one was tight and there was little if any stretching. Good luck.

They expand very slightly, but the main thing is they give you an extra half inch on your collar button, which saves you from having to buy a new shirt for quite a while. Also helpful is to move the button to as close to the edge of the collar as possible.

I tried. It was so uncomfortable and cutting my skin that I couldn't wear it more than 40 mins. I even tried to put a tshirt and swearshirt on under it. I think my issue is that the medium was too big for me so I had to tighten to the Max and it kept cutting me under the arms. I wasn't willing to put an extra padding like others suggested. Some ppl put a hand towel under it. I felt like that was too much accommodation for this back brace. Hope this helps! I will say the refund process was smooth so u may want to just give it a try?

This set did not offer a long sleeve choice, just the short sleeve. Have you tried contacting the mfgr to see if it is available?

I just checked mine and there seems to be a tiny bit of stretch. Given the price and how well they work, I would give them a whirl. Good luck.
