Loved it at first ... then it happened :-(

It was shipped quick (even at Christmas time). I was stoked and worn it the next day. It was the perfect hoodie.

Then, my fiancé washed and dried it. It's 80% cotton and it shrank a lot. I'm 6'2", ordered an XL, and after the first wash the arms look like 3/4 length sleeves. I was very sad.

I re-washed it, stretched the sleeves and hung it to air dry. It's not the same, but at least it's closer to wearable. It had the potential to become my favorite. But after the "hoodie shrinkage incident of 2009", it will just be another hoodie in the back of my closet.
