T-shirt gets smaller in the washing machine?

Hey friends,

I bought some oversized T-shirts, and I think they used to go above my elbows, and now they only go to my knees. I washed them at 40 degrees. Could something happen now, like they might get smaller?

Hello,

that depends on what's on the care label. If it says that the part is washable in the normal wash cycle at 40° C, it should not actually occur.

But it can always happen, depending on quality.

Yeah, that depends on the fabric quality. Usually they become smaller, yes.

Depends on the fabric quality. At cheap dresses this happens more often.

I wash shirts for the first time only at 30°C.
