Does the washing process cause the washed black to fit smaller than the other colors??
No, the fabric on all the Vintage Tees was prewashed to minimizing shrinking in dye and to get rid of torque. Additionally, any dye shrinkage was calculated and put into the patterns before they were cut and sewn.
The Washed Black tees because of the pigment dye process have a slightly dryer feel (to begin with) than the other tees in the collection that were dyed using a reactive process. This is because the pigment doesn't bond with the fabric via a chemical reaction (as it does in reactive dye, hence the name "reactive").
