Default possible problems with shrinkage of 50/50 hoodies

i was printing black hoodies, two whites, two flashes and then wet on wet three colors, using a M&R sportsman auto.
i was getting sporadic areas of misregistration? is it because of shrinkage from my flashes? and if so, who really takes the time to preshrink or pretreat a run of 500 hoodies?? is it worth the time or is there something else i can do?

More Spray Tack.
