......don't shrink. My long-sleeved blue on has been machine washed 100 or more times, and either I'm getting smaller, or it's keeping its shape. My short sleeved yellow top is just as stable.

Given that some other makes get smaller by the wash, I just thought you might want to know

Do they keep their fluourescence? My Altura yellow has been washed a lot too over 4 years and has now faded a bit, and I am wondering how well it actually works now - I see other cyclists looking a lot brighter than me (hur hur) in the daylight.
 
A lot of fluorescent clothing fades - as I understand it, the fluorescence comes from particles rubbing against each other - oooh errr - and they get tired - who wouldn't.
