I have 4 of these shirts and I highly recommend them. They have been washed several times now and shrinkage is no problem, the sleeves seem to be the same lenght as when new. I have to buy the tall size because of my long arms and I've had other shirts that the sleeves lose several inches in lenght making them useless to me. These shirts are also very warm and seem to be very well made, just what you would expect from Carhartt. My job has me outside 12 hours through the night and now that its getting colder they are working out perfectly, these have been a great purchase, no regrets.
