Festering Corpse

Normal wash temps, but the shrinking is caused by the dryer, which I've recently stopped using on new/really worn shirts. Most claim they're pre-shrunk but FOTL always shrinks the worst for me, most brands shrink a little, but FOTL shrinks terribly.

That's odd, every time I buy FOTL they shrink completely retarded. Either they shrink more than a size or they do like my white Bolt Thrower shirt, it's an XL in width but more like a M in height. Totally fucked up - Gildan on the other hand has never had shrinkage problems for me. I'll admit they're thinner. I've never had a Gildan shirt that was over-sized, they've all actually ran a little smaller.

You can always do worse than Gildan... say, Fruit of the Loom? hah

I know I'm not up to the standards of some of the greats on here, but I'm just starting out and did a bit more than just lopping off the sleeves; see underneath. Granted, it's not the prettiest thing in the world compared to people with more skill/experience, but to insult the whole term? That was not a fair critique by any standard.

(friends, see reply to original question for details)

Good point - as you can see, cut the sleeves/neck to start. Then, altered the sides and arm cut to make it fit better across my shoulders (I have quite pointy shoulder blades). Took bloody forever with my non-professional manskills! That's why it's a bit more DIY than just my other cutoffs - beforehand, it looked too much like a surcoat/tabard. Sounds a bit pedantic and a lot of effort, but I'm sure you'll appreciate the difference cut across a back can make, especially if you're wearing it under a jacket!

Que bien que colocaste el de Root en tu chaleco :) carajo! en general patea traseros esto!!l
