Unless it's pre-shrunk, clothing that's 100% Pima cotton shrinks. The most shrinkage occurs with warm water washing, and machine drying. The least shrinkage occurs with cold water washing, which is more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly, and with non-machine drying such as on a clothes line outside or on a hanger in the house.
