I just received a pair of Cap 4 expedition weight bottoms. Im in-between sizes that they offered so I went with the larger size, they fit ok but I think it could be a tad bit snugger. Does anyone know if the new cap 4 will shrink when washed? I think if they shrink just a bit I would be happy otherwise Im exchanging for the size smaller. Thanks
Never mind I couldn't wait. I washed them and yes they do shrink about one size, so they now are perfect.
Thanks for taking the time to update your question with the answer based on your experience :)
What temperature water did you wash them in and did you use a clothes dryer?
Washed with hot water, Med spin, light soil level. Dyed for 30 minute on the very dry setting. They where new and never used but from this point on I don't plan to put them in a dryer to dry. Reason to prevent stink from developing in the synthetic material this is an AT trick that works.
