Mostyn6 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I'm off on holiday in about 4 weeks, so I decided to get all my shorts and polo shirts out to wash them to freshen them up. Before I did this, I decided to try on my polo shirts.I cannot believe it, every single one of my designer polo shirts has shrunken around the midriff area.Does anyone know what could have caused this? They've been in the wardrobe since last summer. Not exposed to sunlight or water. I don't think I've heard of material shrinking in one area of the shirt before.Bizarre.

Perhaps don't go away on holiday and put the money towards hiring a little Philopeno? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrivateDerby Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Polos are a pain I get mine out the wash, reshape them then either lay them flat to dry or if it's a nice day hang them on the line by the shoulder seams, any other way fooks them up.
