Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has this tee could tell me whether what the tee is made from?.

I have a chance to snag one but I need to shrink it, I was wondering would boiling it in hot water fuck the screenprint up - most likely but had to ask and whether it would shrink if its cotton.

The pointmen rainbow one mate, I can get a medium however, they fit one size too big. So I'm thinking of shrinking it using hot water, not sure if it screw the print and whether it would actually shrink.

Google tells me

"You cna ovrshrink a shirt from xxl to medium if you are not careful.

Most "T's" are made from cotton poly blends. The higher the cotton content, the more it is capable of shrinking. Also if the water is over 145 degrees, you run the risk of shrinking the poly or synthetic fibers as well and the size could go to small and very much out of proportion in the neck and arm banding. NEck and arm banding is often a different blend, thus it will have a different shrink rate and amount.

Do it over a few washings in hot water in the washer. Dry it on a hot setting, but not all the way dry. If possible, put it on until it cools, it will shrink tou your body. Repeat this several times and it should tighten up to your physical proportions. "

Hey Dum I just realised you're mod now, thanks for the advice bud. Might be just worth it to get the $100 instead.

Ok for those who have a Surrender tee, is it worth paying $100 for it?. Or should I get some new Stussy tees instead?
