Threads have started coming out after just one wash

Update - just one wash and it has started threading ... not good

Using this for our 4 year old boys and they are pretty awesome

* Colored toe and heel - looks pretty neat - makes it easy particularly for kids since they tend to put the heel side on the top
* Fit is good (yes, it does work for 4 year olds, bit longer, but it still works good)
* Slides easily - no loose threads so far

Where it loses a star
* Not warm & thick enough - not winter socks

thread started pulling off the case in some places after first month of use. having only one position is limiting.

Thread frayed immediately upon first use.  Will not purchase this brand again.

One/initial wash in a front load machine .... with NO agitator, mind you!  The stitching on the embroidery on the front embellishments was all coming out.  You could call this a fluke.... except for that the SAME thing happened on the tie dye one I got as well.  Straight to goodwill for someone else to deal with.  I'm glad they weren't too big of an investment, since they're clearly garbage.  btw, you can see where the stitching is coming apart - there's a difference in the dye underneath where the stitching is located.  Otherwise, you could just take out all the embellishment embroidery, and wear it that way.

I washed them all straight out of the package and at least 10 of the 13 handkerchiefs came out of the dryer with numerous loose threads all around the edges, so the quality is a little less than I was hoping for.

I used it for more than a week and washed it nearly four times. The threads are still coming out and the cloth is not absorbed. I am sorry to buy it.

I have always like Columbia prouducts and have brought quite a few items from Amazon in the past. For the price we pay for the brand, I'm very disappointed with this shirt as the threading at the bottom of the shirt came off after the first wash.

After two washes the threads have started to come undone, leaving long strings dragging on the floor, catching in doors

The stitching around the waistband came loose after the first wash. The thread just pulled right out on its own. The fabric is not very absorbent, and the texture is itchy in all the wrong places.

I seem to be having a run of bad luck with buying towels lately.  This is the third set of towels that I've ordered on-line and that have started to fall apart after the first wash.  And I know that it's not the way I'm washing the towels, because I have a set of Martex towels that I bought earlier and they're still holding up great, even though I wash them twice a week.  I returned for a refund from Amazon, as I figured these wouldn't hold up well if they had already started losing threads in the first wash. Thank goodness for Amazon's free returns.

After once round of wearing and washing, they are already starting to come apart.  Disappointing to say the least.

After only one time washing and line dry, the stitching around the letters is unraveling.  It's disappointing it's falling apart when it's still practically new.

Very cheap. The threads are coming out on one side already and I just opened it yesterday. The one throw pillows sticking it coming off too. :(

I was very impressed by the feel and use until I did a  quick wash.  The item started shedding and having lose threads on the 1st wash.

One of them fell apart after first wash. Wouldn't buy again.

really liked these when I first got them but after just 1 wash (air dryed only) threads started pulling out and it looks a bit ratty - sad because the price was great and love the color but i'm afraid the next time I have to wash them they will come apart.
