Barefoot dreams TSV Sept 10 question.

I purchased 2 colors, stone and carbon, washed both, put in dryer on low. Stone came out great, no shrinkage, carbon is at least 2 sizes smaller all over, including sleeves. I thought the rep said material is pre shrunk?  I could be wrong, but wonder if anyone else heard this. I am getting so tired of inconsistant sizing on items.

My advice is stay away from TSV's the few times I've bought any no matter the designer, they always seem to be lesser quality to sell quantity. IMHO

I think you are so right ! I learned that about shoes,( the hard way), but thought this brand could be trusted. Another lesson I guess.

I have at least 20 pieces of BFD. None of it has ever shrunk. I don’t baby anything in the laundry.

I have many BFD and never had any issues with shrinking.  I have never heard they are pre-shrunk either.

Thanks, i have many also, that were a lot more expensive and did not shrink. This was the first bfd that shrank on me. It shrank a lot, even in sleeve length. No more TSV cheaper items for me.

Re: Barefoot dreams TSV Sept 10 question.

I'm not much help because I DO baby my items in the laundry.  With BD, I wash on delicate and toss in the dryer on extra low heat for about 2 minutes, then either lay flat to dry or hang to dry.
