I tend to find that older (10+ years) t-shirts shrink a lot. Even if I don't wash them.

Same happens to me, but I don't think it's the T-shirts that are shrinking.

I literally have a t-shirt from 1997 that doesn't shrink in our machines. :D

    • I was just offering the amusing anecdote that I have a 30 year old shirt that doesn't shrink. I used to treat it with kids gloves to keep it from doing so.

      Note that I fully understand it for the anecdotal weight that it has. That is, basically none. Is fun for conversation, but isn't intended to prove anything.

It's weird, I never had that problem yet suddenly my old clothes started shrinking a couple years ago too.

Might have been our new hangers.
