What do you think?</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-boden-corduroys-shrink#post-2024710 Sun, 05 May 2019 16:50:11 +0000 Anonymous 2024710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seconding Angie! Pants legs have a bad habit of getting shorter in the dryer as a rule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-boden-corduroys-shrink#post-2024671 Sun, 05 May 2019 15:05:12 +0000 Angie 2024671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do not put them in the dryer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-boden-corduroys-shrink#post-2024503 Sat, 04 May 2019 19:32:30 +0000 LaPed 2024503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the cropped cords made of the same material as the Stirlings. I wash cold and tumble dry for a few minutes on low (to help the corduroy not feel "crunchy"), then air dry. Have not noticed any shrinkage, just an average amount of snugness when they're freshly washed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/will-boden-corduroys-shrink#post-2024493 Sat, 04 May 2019 18:06:24 +0000 BrieN 2024493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know Boden has a reputation for top notch quality. Have any if you all purchased their corduroy and put them through a typical wash and dry cycle? Line dry?<br /> Specifically looking at their stirling cord trousers. </p>
