How exactly did you wash them? *Anything* will shrink if you wash/dry it in too extreme a manner.

Gildan 2000 shrink about 5%. I use them a lot. Also they are oversize.

I've ordered all kinds of Hanes and FTL from Jiffy with no problems so far. Your post makes me think I should continue avoiding Gildan.

Try M&O knits. It's a softer feel and i think it's just as good if not better than Gildan. It's a little cheaper as well. Good Luck.

my wife has been washing my cloths for 30 years. nothing extreme.

No real shrink problems on my end with Gilden. I work outside in them every day and wash in hot water. I do expect about a half size shrink with any 100% cotton white shirt.

no problems here either with shrinking gildans!

We push Gildan to all our clients and haven't had any real issues accept the few minor ones here and there that you will get from every brand.

Over the many years in this Industry I have seen mis labels, pockets sew on the wrong side, major holes, missing a sleeve from all the major brands. It happens to them all.
