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 purchased XL shirts, they were too big, my normal size is XL, I reordered Large and they fit .

It seems to breathe really well, but I live up in the Sierra Nevada and it's always dry, even when it's hot. The sleeves are pretty loose. They come down to the middle of my wrist or so. But I think I've got the sleeves figured out. They've got a velcro tab, and can be worn up really easily. Like you just slide them up above your elbow and pin the velcro. It's a different fit. Not like a regular Under Armour long sleeve for running. Everything works, but the whole combo takes a little getting used to. Hope this helps.

First of all, I'm sorry to hear about your illness and I hope you're doing much better now. I think as a temporary fix, it would be okay. I think you might have to play around with the type of bra you wear it with, that might make a small difference in how it looks. I personally didn't like the way they felt and it didn't look all that 'real' in my eyes. Since I couldn't return them, I kept them- I keep them tucked away in case I ever find that I REALLY need them for something. Wishing you luck and good health!

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 :-)

Immediately stretching the material after drying it. It's difficult because of the large size. I used a curtain rod, and long metal pipe to tighten the material. I routed the material around the pipe and clamped it back to the curtain rod. Treat it like a very large cotton shirt.

I used the size chart next to the order sized field. I chose LARGE for my boy per the numbers in the size chart, i.e. chest, general size, waist and sleeves. After trying it on, my son and I come to to same conclusion, too tight and the sleeves were too short. I could have re-order XL, but since I have to pay shipping both way, I didn't want to take more chances. This trying experience costs me $30 in shipping and I am still waiting for my refund.

I ordered the size I wore my t- shirts, which at the time was x- large. There is an extender that is included also. Amazon is amazing with returns also. Hope this helps.

I would definitely pre-shrink the t-shirts as much as possible before using them in a t-shirt quilt, but I have successfully used Heat N Bond on many stretch materials with great success, including with stretch cotton jersey which is what many commercial t-shirts are made of. The shirt I created from scratch with a Heat N Bond shape on the front of it as a decoration made it through the wash just fine.

I think that I bought the large. I also had an issue with them coming down from the top. I did find that pulling more material up from around the wrist reduced the tension pulling down the tops. That helped a lot. There is no question that they do cool the skin. I just bought a pair of Nike sleeves in a different color after finding them on clearance, but I have not used them yet.

Mine arrived rather long (so long had to cut down about 4 inches of maile, because it surrounded my legs) and had quite some space around the chest, but less around the thighs. All-in-all, sizes are hit and miss, it seems. This shirt and coif is cheap, and if it good for your size, you have 40 pounds of rings to work with. I use the extra stuff i cut down and the coif (since i dont wear it) to make repairs and additions to the shirt. For the money, it is worth a shot. It may appear too tight around your legs, but i needed a belt to secure the extra space around my stomach and chest.

Stay with your original size, You are playing a hit and miss game.I have tried two so far and neither one fit. Pisses me off.

I know what you mean - my FOTLs shrink up pretty quickly. Not these. They keep their shape really well. Good quality material.

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!

I suggest a medium now to fit. A large would be lose now but if you continue to grow I would advise getting a large. Believe me because this shirt is of such good quality you should have it a long time.

I wish I knew how to shrink mine. I've tried hot water but nothing seems to work. That's certainly a sign of a quality made garment when it can hold up to hot water and the dryer. I'll begin purchasing a smaller size in the future.

Artwork used to fit with no problem. The last batch I purchased are just slightly smaller. If the artwork/liner notes are not more than a few pages thick they will fit OK. If thicker, they tend to be very difficult to get in and out and can distort the sleeve.
