So alot my tshirts collars have gone all out of shape, and jumpers different sizes since i bought them etc.

Im wondering whats the best way (without to much hassle) to wash my t's and sweatshirts to stop them from going out of shape (keeping the collars nice and stop the hem from moving out.)

also if I do have some hoodies,tshirts that are to big will a hot soak for a couple of hours shrink them down a size?

a few of mine do the same thing. i think the best thing to do is wash them in cold/hot water (doesn't matter, depends on the color of the shirt), then dry them on medium, and once it's done drying immediately take the shirt out and hang it up or iron it.
