Eidos Napoli

Anyone know what the shrinkage factor is on the "Made in Italy" Lupos? I've always washed cold and hung dry, but I feel a tighter fit would suit me better. If I toss them in the dryer on low, what kind of shrinkage do you think I'll get?

at least a full size and will get very short.

That's helpful. I have a size small that I think fits better, but you are saying if I shrink the medium the length will likely be shorter than my current standard small?

Probably but I'm not sure. The made in Italy knits never washed well, which is why I moved production to LA.

Understood, thanks for the help here.

Speaking of Lupo’s, anybody else’s NY Blues navy polos turn purple after washing?
Mine doesn’t really look navy anymore, more like a dark purple. Can’t wear it with any of my navy jackets, as it clashes. It’s like the magenta in the color dye stayed but the cyan component fades out faster.

Thought it was just my eyes playing tricks on me - but yes I've noticed a slight "purpling."

Sounds like the Wrath of Grape?

From navy to prune. Still love them. I think it’s actually from UV exposure more than anything ?‍♂️

Mine is still navy. Delicate wash in a sweater bag, laying flat to dry, no change in color yet (hopefully ever).

While I remember, there is quite a lot of Eidos on the Real Real, including a number of Lupo's for $40 bucks.

Yeah, someone's been giving a way a lot of good stuff. I picked up a splatter paint cardigan, which is unreal.
