What material are these made of? Will they shrink when washed?

I think they are made of polyester. They will shrink a little bit if you over dry them but ive washed mine 3 or 4 times now and they're still like new.

Yes, they are washable but you have to watch for shrinkable. Wash in cold and lay flat to dry.

No they don't shrink. I love the towels very much but be careful in getting stains on it. Hard to get them out.Love the size and great for drying time.

I've never washed them, as I've never gotten into anything dirty enough to need washing. But I don't see why they couldn't be. I would air dry them so the materials don't shrink.

They say hand wash only, and I'm guessing that's best. They're 100% polyester and have pretty cheap (though cute!) details on them that probably wouldn't survive in the washing machine. Definitely no dryer -- they'd melt!

yes, they are washable, but don't put in dryer....they will shrink and not fit. I have has poor experience with this product.

Yes, I would say so. They are lint free but you'll noticed a little lint unless you wash them. They will also shrink a tad.

Mine did not shrink even after a couple washes. I think I even ran it through the dryer but don't remember for sure.

I have washed them, but I have not put them in the dryer. I prefer to air dry, but if you do I suggest you use the low setting to protect from shrinkage.

I don't know. I haven't tried to wash them. From looking at it I would say they probably are. You would have to wash them in cold water and don't put them in the drier. I never put anything in the drier unless I am sure it won't shrink.

I am not absolutely sure but I would guess it's a cotton/poly blend. I wash them in hot water and they do fine without much shrinkage or fading. I buy generic Poise pads to put in them as they hold better and fit very well into the width of the band. I believe that I have sz. med. so a poise may be too big if you are buying a small.

It is a cotton blend. I washed and dried mine and it did not shrink. I love mine

I use these in our guest room which doesn't get a lot of use. They did not shrink after 2 or 3 washings.

yes they shrink but only the way that your denim jeans would. it's a tighter fit right after they come out of the dryer but much like our jeans, they tend to stretch out with consistent use until they're thrown in to the wash again. I was mine about once a week (we have 2 so we alternate them!)

We have washed them, but we used cold water, and did not dry them. They did not shrink using this method. We use them for transporting lots of different items, and they have been very satisfactory.

I haven't used warm water, but I don't think they would shrink. I wash them in cold water on the gentle/hand cycle and hang them up to dry. I have several that I rotate, and I use them daily on my leaky little girl. They're holding up great.

My experience is that throwing them in the washer/dryer is no problem at all. They will shrink quite a bit the first time but that's why they are so huge. I even throw them in boiling water from time to time.
