After a few washes my shirts all seem to have shorter sleeves and feel a bit tighter. What are some tips???

wash them in cold water and no heat setting to low heat setting in your dryer or buy larger shirts

Wash the shirt normally in the washer. When you go to dry it, dry it on low heat or just hang it up and tug on it a little bit to help prevent your shirt from getting wrinkles.

Hang Dry

I have an idea. Give the smaller shirts to your brother (if you have one, or to the Salvation army.) next read all the responses given. there is good advice there. ps. read also the labels when you buy a shirt (by law it is stated what kind of a shirt it is and how to wash it) hope it helps, usually it does.

Wash everything in cold and line dry the shirts (on hangers) or tumble dry low heat.
Peace!

Wash them in warm or cold water, and hang them up to dry instead of putting them in the dryer.

Wash them in cold water and it is the hot dryer that shrinks them..... You could dry them by hanging them, or use the cold dry setting if you have one on the dryer.

Well, one solution to your problem might be to stop drying them in the dryer. Put them on a hanger and let air-dry. They will never shrink if you let them air-dry.

theres an amazing invention in your shirt called a label the four or five symbols are there to help you check what are on them and chances are one of them tells you not to tumble dry your shirts.

maybe you should line dry them or put them on a hanger and let them air dry, maybe when you putr them in the dryer you are setting the temperature too high and your shirts are getting shrunk.
