Is anyone taking their goods back? This is NOT acceptable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35661 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 17:03:43 +0000 Taffy 35661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It worked out ok for me, since I wear them for work. 8 hours of standing in my FS booties, was too long anyway I'm kind of glad that I can get back to my more practical if less fab shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35592 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:57:17 +0000 nancy 35592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also had trouble with shrinkage with a Gap knit dress. Still had my receipt and the took them back and credited my acct. Not sure if you want to do that but thought I would at least let you know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35564 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 03:05:57 +0000 Nicole 35564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I agree with you aj. They should have pre-shrunk the fabric. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35559 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 02:54:52 +0000 Amanda 35559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad it's wasn't just me! Although I hope you can still wear yours Taffy and glad they are now the right length Nicole. It was only frustrating because I was told they might shrink half and inch and they shrunk nearly 2" -- you would think that Gap would not have pants that shrink that much or at least warn you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35554 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 02:42:32 +0000 Nicole 35554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can second that! I washed the brown ones and did not need to hem them. I have not washed the grey ones yet--but I figure they'll shrink as well. I am glad though--now I don't have to wait to wear them to have them hemmed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-your-gap-micro-checks-long#post-35539 Wed, 19 Nov 2008 02:07:36 +0000 Taffy 35539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just thought I'd post an FYI. I finally washed my Gap micro-checks, after holding off as long as possible. I remember AJ's had shrunk quite a bit, so I crossed my fingers. Mine also shrank from 2.5" to 1" heel height, so buy them long!!! </p>
