I bought an bootleg HD t-shirt in Jamaica...not sure what it was made of...but after I washed it...you would have had a hard time getting it on a toddler ...

A $45 T-Shirt?? Guess I haven't stepped foot anywhere by the cloths in the HD shop lately... Holy Crap, what a complete waste of money. Between that and the price of their bikes now a days I guess their stock
reports this AM make a ton of sense.

Turn it inside out then re-wash it. Reverse the process. Then wash it properly.

I think it is based on which dealership you bought it from. I bought shirts from 3 or 4 different HD shops last year while vacationing in some of the Ne England states. Some of the shirts fit perfectly and some shrank after washing. Not sure why that happens.

I never put my HD t-shirts in the dryer. Come to think of it I hang dry all of my shirts and jeans.
They last longer that way and don't shrink.
