I have worn mine often over the last year and have not had this problem. Maybe it was a defective section of fabric? I would write to the company because I contacted them about a sizing issue and they were responsive.

I agree. Write the company and Amazon about the issue. Should be able to get your money back from Amazon.

This is my second one. My first got stretched out after about 8 months of almost daily in chlorine. Second one is just faded but not stretched out yet. The chlorine takes its toll but I really like the zip up feature since I had shoulder trouble.

I only wore mine once cuz it wasn't warm enough. maybe you should contact the seller.

I do not think I have worn it 12 times. I prefer one I bought that has some insulation. So no in response to your question re stretching out.

I am sorry I may not be of much help as I use an XL Shirt but bought a XXXL jacket because that was al available at the time. It was way way too big. I only use it with a Alpinestar bionic jacket under. I missed it. But because of its weight I am not willing to buy again. I live in Nigeria so shipping it back for a replacement is not an option, it will be cheaper to buy another than return the one I have already. Hope it helps you.

I used the size chart next to the order sized field. I chose LARGE for my boy per the numbers in the size chart, i.e. chest, general size, waist and sleeves. After trying it on, my son and I come to to same conclusion, too tight and the sleeves were too short. I could have re-order XL, but since I have to pay shipping both way, I didn't want to take more chances. This trying experience costs me $30 in shipping and I am still waiting for my refund.

My son loves his, and has been wearing it as an outer layer over other shirts (tees and turtle necks) this whole fall. I would think biggest issue might be getting too warm once you were indoors. That, and getting a size with some extra room for the layering.

I have only used one season and I was in Hawaii. I didn't notice any stretching. I will use this season and let you know.

No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms. Definitely not all the way to the shoulders, so they would not work with a sleeveless shirt/top. Generally mine stay up pretty well, although I find they are slipping more with the more I wear them & the older they get. It will also depend on what size you have, how large (and long) your arms are, and how active you are while wearing them. I have used mine hiking & bike riding and have loved them; they actually make my arms feel cooler and I love the way they protect the top of my hands in addition to my arms. I've recommended them to friends and have already purchased 3 pairs myself. No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms.

I would not recommend leaving the collar extender attched to the shirt in the wash. It may come off and impair the washer. My suggestion would be to remove before washing.

I just checked mine and there seems to be a tiny bit of stretch. Given the price and how well they work, I would give them a whirl. Good luck.

After two summers of use I can say that ours have not stretched out at all and still look great. I only wish I bought more of them. Hope that helps!

I take a large size. It is just over 18 inches long as it comes from the package, but they stretch, so 20 in. should not be a problem. I do not know if the different standard sizes are different lengths or not, i.e., if a medium would be somewhat shorter than the large. I highly recommend this sleeve, they are very comfortable.

Hi, the neck isnot a problem for me, but the rest of the shirt takes a little effort, specially to take off, that is my experience, but I still recommend it, just take a bigger size

John, These Shirts are equal to the a regular shirt. All you need to pay attention is type of compression of the shirt. I have purchased the Fitted which is a good one - it is the intermediate one from loose to tight one (on my opinion) to the regular day use and also for the workout as well. Some people rather have the other version which is too tight (again, my opinion).. Check it out which one is your son`s favourite for this matter. All my jerseys and Sport shirts are Large on size and it is the same I have used for this one. Hope this helps you out.

Not sure about your problem exactly, but I do know that these bands are not made very well at all. Mine lasted one day, so I'll bet this is a pretty common problem with it stretching out of shape.

I wish I knew how to shrink mine. I've tried hot water but nothing seems to work. That's certainly a sign of a quality made garment when it can hold up to hot water and the dryer. I'll begin purchasing a smaller size in the future.

I have never had that happen. I would send it back, as you need a tight fit. Have a great day

They expand very slightly, but the main thing is they give you an extra half inch on your collar button, which saves you from having to buy a new shirt for quite a while. Also helpful is to move the button to as close to the edge of the collar as possible.

I can tell you what experience has taught me.These shirts are meant to be a bit snug;not take your breath away snug but a little bit as to improve performance.So for instance where I normally wear an XL I'd go for a large and so far that's worked for me.Hope that helps.Best of luck with everything!
