Since I'm assuming this was directed at me.......The purpose of my post was to thank Brian for posting some actual numbers regarding his experience with these shirts. I saw several "I'll post comparison pictures" comments but noone came through. Brian's numbers helped. Also, I didn't bash this brand of shirts.....I made a comment about our experience with length shrinkage on District Threads shirts and said this brand appears, from Brian's tests, to have a similar problem. The "belly shirt" comment wasn't intended to be taken literally. I'm fully aware that all cotton shirts shrink, even if they are "preshrunk", but it's a problem, for me at least, if that shrinkage drastically changes the proportions of the shirt. Even with Brian's testing numbers there are enough posters who seem to be happy with the shirts that I'll probably buy some and do some testing of my own. Since everyones requirements are slightly different that is really the only way to determine whether or not they will work for us. Lastly, I was probably wrong for specifically thanking Brian for his info without including a thanks to everyone who ordered these shirts and posted info on them. It's hearing both sides, from multiple people, that makes it easier to make a decision on the product. So....thanks to all of you! This forum has been a truely valuable source of information for me.
