Has anyone put these in dryer and have they shrunk?

I always machine was/dry them and after at least 10 times they look like new...no shrinkage or pilling. A great, comfortable investment.

I have on both the black and the gray ones, I don't think they have shrunk at all and I have washed them several times. I think they are some of the best sweatpants I have bought, very comfortable, warm and thick material so I feel they are made well to last.

I wouldn't risk putting them in the dryer unless you did want them to shrink.

They didn't shrink for my daughter any more than other cotton clothes, so we're good.

Who wants extra care for sweats, so I pop these in the dryer on medium heat. The pants did shrink some (perhaps 1/2") in length. In my grey set the pants were on the short side to begin with. Shrinkage would normally be welcome (I am only 5'4") however the grey sweat pants ran pretty short and are now barely long enough. My navy blue pants are fine but were cut longer at the start. The fit otherwise remains fine after repeated washing and drying. So far they have held up well remaining soft, no pilling, very comfortable. Fabric content on the sets I've received is 60% cotton and 40% polyester. Who wants extra care for sweats, so I pop these in the dryer on medium heat.

I put them in the dryer at the same time as my wet clothes. They will do their work just like dryer sheets. I TAKE them out with my dried clothes.

Yes, but they do shrink in the dryer. So I air dry them as opposed to machine drying.

not at all - no shrinkagehowever I do not leave them in the dryer for FULL CYCLE - I take them out after about 10-15 minutes and usually just damp and they dry quickly on their own. very good product just bought 2 more

I have not washed them yet. But I think you just air dry them. I know I am not going to put them in the dryer.

We washed ours on gentle cycle but didn't dry them in the dryer. Just let them air dry. They didn't shrink on us :) we have the white covers so some stains remained but definitely look better!!

I bought one pair last year as a gift, another pair this year for the same person because he likes them and wears them often. Washed in cold water, dried in a normal dryer, no, they have not shrunk.

I've washed & dried mine many times & they shrink very little. Now I don't ever wash with really hot water or dry at high heat, it's not necessary & wastes electricity. A grandma that knows. :-)

I do cold water and air dry only. They last over a year before they start to lose their fit. I never have issues with smell, shrinkage and weak or lazy fabric. It's the heat in the drier that really kills these.

I've washed mine in the washing machine inside a lingerie bag so the Velcro didn't stick to other items. I've line dried and put them in the dryer and they held up fine. They tend to stretch out from use and the dryer shrinks them back to a more snug fit.

I have been using these back to back since late July, with several washes in between and that has never happen to me. I wash them with a hot cycle meant for heavy cotton and then rinse a second time. I have never used a dryer on them, that could be why yours are balling up. I just hang dry for a few hours.

i would never put them in a dryer---wash and hang to dry. When we were on the boat we hosed off with fresh water and hung them on the deck. doesn't take long for them to dry.

I have not had any problems so far with the socks shrinking. They've been washed and dried probably about 5 or 6 times.

wash as usual with other same color items. I believe the package symbols showed no dryer, but hubby wanted his 'shrunk' a little, so I threw them in the dryer and had no problems with them.

Yes, I wash them in the washing machine and they come out great. I do not put them in the dryer.

I wouldn't put them in the dryer because they are really soft and they could shrink or get damaged.Moreover, they dry pretty fast by their own.
