I have read in the reviews that these shrink quite a bit. What is the final size after washing &amp; shrinking? thanks! :)

We recommend washing in warm or hot water and drying in low heat. If these care instructions are followed, the towels usually shrink up to 1-2 inches (to anywhere between 13" x 23" to 14" x 24"). These towels are 100% cotton and they are expected to shrink a little. As they shrink a little after a few washes the threads should become more tightly woven, resulting in a more absorbent lint-free towel. If you dry the towels in high heat, you should expect a little more shrinking (up to 3"), to about 13" in width by 21"-22" in length. Some of our customers like to keep their towels in the best shape and dry them in low heat, while some customers like the convenience of drying all linens together in high heat and don't mind the additional shrinking. I hope this helps. Lisa Liliane Collection

I buy these from my son, since he was 7 years old (now he is 10), so we went thru 000, 00, and now are on 0 size. I would estimate shrinkage at about 10% for the top and slightly less for the pants, for sizes 000-0, you may see couple points more on the larger size. I hope that helps.R

I have washed them several times with hardly any shrinkage,but i never put them in the dryer. I wear a 34/34 jean and i ordered medium tall, good fit.

I would assume they do shrink but I always wash them in cold water and Woolite and have had no problems. I am amazed just how warm these underwear were.

Mines shrunk before my baby got to wear them :( hang them up to dry. No dryer!

They didn't shrink too much when I washed them, before I embroidered them. I do plan on ordering more.

Mine did not shrink even after a couple washes. I think I even ran it through the dryer but don't remember for sure.

My experience is that throwing them in the washer/dryer is no problem at all. They will shrink quite a bit the first time but that's why they are so huge. I even throw them in boiling water from time to 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.

I wear a size 4 and the small was perfect. I don't think they run small...more true to the size. Good luck, wish I could help you more. They washed beautifully and there was no shrinkage.

No shrinkage at all. I am 6"1" and I love them--heavy, & long and they never pull out of your pants when you reach up for something. You will not be disappointed with them.

I bought a xxl and usually worry about shrinkage, I've washed and dryed the sweater many times and it has not shrunk one bit. Hope this helps

I'm a 7 1/2" across the knuckles. Will these shrink after washing and air drying? May I ask your opinion regarding a suitable size? Thank you.

10" X 11" after they have been washed. They are a bit larger until then. They're great!

Yes, they most definitely shrink. I actually reached out to the company asking if there was a better way to wash and dry them to prevent the excessive shrinkage but they never responded. I was highly disappointed in that but the product it self is perfect for a male dog. The best I have tried. I did have to order two more belts for this reason and when I got them they seemed to shrink a little less but I hand washed them this time first and laid out on a towel to dry flat. I am not sure if they did some tweaking to the material but it seemed it shrunk a little less and the dye was not so pronounced with washing. My suggestion would be give yourself about 1 to 1 1/2" extra inches for shrinkage and wash first. It is a shame when you find a good product and you can not get the company to provide good customer support. You just have to take in to account for shrinkage and the color bleeding. The denim bleeds a good bit so do not put it with anything you do not want colored blueish on the first wash.

B4 washing, it was great. After washing in cold water it shrunk more than 1/2 its original size and now sits in my box of things I don't want to throw out but I have no current use for. I would not recommend purchase.

Mine didn't shrink when I washed and dried it. We really like ours....enough that I ordered another one for a guest bedroom.
