YES! I bought a pair of rayon pants that fit nicely but were a tad too long, so I'd have to hem them. I put it in the dryer (d'oh!) and they shrunk so much I can't wear them. To give you an idea the length of my too-long pants is now just under my knees! And the cool, comfy, loose-fitting pants are now like pantyhose in tightness. Wash in cold always and hang to dry!
