I just recieved some BB pinpoint shirts. I was wondering how much they shrink? I know the non-iron's are sized to shrink is this true of the pinpoint? The necks are 15.5 and idealy i wear a 15.25 so would like a little shrinkage there but not sure if i would want any in the sleeve to shrink. I would perfer to just wash then throw them in the drier because it is hard to air dry clothes at school. Let me know

thanks
Nik

I have many BB pinpoint, non-iron shirts. I haven't noticed any significant shrinkage. Then again, I haven't measured the shirts before and after washing them. I do dry them in the dryer.

Just remember, BB have a great guarantee. If you have a problem with the shirt, you can return it for a refund or exchange for a larger neck size.
