Ordered several of his long sleeve crews. Sizes were inconsistent, some fit better than others in the S. The only consistency were all the sleeves were bracelet length Sent them back for M, hoping the sleeves will hit the wrist. Is it rational to try to shrink to get a better fit or send them back? Thanks

@Kimnola.  Its best to send them back as modern fabrics are pre-treated to have bery little shrinkage.  There are many variables that can cause inconsistencies in sizing; these include dyes used, the fabric's position when it is being cut (pieces on the bottom are stretched more).  They may have been manufactured in different factories using different equipment which may have minute differences.
