This is the one in green or red. Before I order one, do any of you have one and did it wash nicely? The last shirt I got from Merrill shrank up into a "square" and ended up being 2 or 3 inches shorter. Wasnt flattering at all. Cant decide what color either - leaning towards red. I wish they had fuschia!
 
not to hijack..but I got the purple merrill tshirt and it shrunk too. does merrill compensate for this? should i call them? or not bother>?

thats what I'm afraid of! I need a short-sleeved shirt and Im almost scared to order!
 
well Cindy, I got the XL because I like the way they fit after you wash them. well this fit snug after a wash, like a medium. i think i will call them because they should say "may shrink" or something to that affect.
 
I have both the red and the green. I bought a Medium and it washes beautifullyt and has not shrunk. I wash it in the washer on delicate and I hang it to dry (occasionally I will put it in the dryer for a few minutes to fluff it).

I wear a medium too Linda - that is good to know - I vowed after the last one shrank to not put them in the dryer anymore. Which color do you like best for spring/summer? I usually wear nice jeans/jeans skirt or capris with my shirts. I had said red but now I'm thinking green with our new green line!
 
I bought the rhinestone shirt and I wash and dry it with no problems of shrinking.

I like both colors. The red is more of a blue/red not an orange/red - hope that makes sense. The green is an olive/lime/chartruese (sp) green (looks good with beige)
 
I have the green version of that shirt and it has stayed pretty true to size.
 
U-neck, V-neck, T-neck...I wonder what an X neck would look like? :confused:
 
I bought the black jacket and it also shrunk. :(
 
I'm surprised their business cards, banners and posters don't shrink.

My u-neck shirt shrank, but the polo shirt did not...
 
I've been happy with all my Merrill clothing.
If it shrinks or whatnot, send it back for a return!
I got a dots pen and it broke. They replaced it, no problem.

I am thinking about getting some of their cute pink HWC items.
