LOL, Michael...

But truly, most clothes these days shrunk especially 100% cotton, even if we dry them on no heat cycle.

I used to work as a Quality Assurance in a clothing company in Southern Africa, and we test the textile first before cutting for production, most of the materials has shrinkage issues.


Just a friendly advise, buy one size bigger, it will surely shrink (except nylon, lycra, and etc) But if it has cotton on it, it will surely shrink!

I've learned (basic) sewing in the army.

A quite helpfull skill, even if the results look kind of awful. Still, the main thing is that it holds. Looks are for wusses anyways. :icon_lol:
