I'm thinking of washing in cold water( so the colors don't fade), then I'm confused of what dryer setting I should choose. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I'm curious as to how this turned out.  My local TJ Maxx has hundreds of these shirts in every color, but the fact that it says they are oversized to allow shrinkage scares me.  I already have a too many clothes that don't fit the right way.  They are way too big on me in the store before washing. 

Did they shrink any ?

This thread's topic is an interesting unresolved question.

Polo Ralph Lauren's small regular fit pique polos fit me perfectly. However, the small interlock polos I've looked at in the stores seem huge and are much bigger than the small pique polos. The custom (slim) fit interlock polos would seem to be the appropriate size, which seems odd since the custom fit pique polos are too small for me. So where I'm left, like the OP, is the fear of the regular fit small interlock polo not shrinking enough to fit how I want or the custom fit shrinking too much! Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.
