Angry Shrinkage

It's embarrassing and frustrating. It goes into cold water and comes out a size or two smaller.

Bought a new pair of jeans that are 99% cotton and 1% spandex. Last time I bought a pair of Levi's with spandex/cotton mix, I threw them in the cold wash and then dryer on low heat. It came out a whole size smaller. Tried them on and I looked like a wannabe hipster. Anyone got any tips on how to avoid shrinkage?

I just watch my jeans normal, then hang dry them to avoid the issue.

You think your jeans are too tight, try on a girls pair! Talk about suffering for beauty. Better yet, try on some jeggings lol!

Yes. Cold wash inside out and hang dry them. Anyways, better tight jeans that stretch out than jeans that don't shrink.

So wrong. If Conan did the puppet string dance in those jeans, he would've split some seams for sure.
