Shrinking scrubs, help!- Dickies W line


Does anyone know if the Dickies W line shrinks a lot? I just bought my first pair and they are huge. I can't return them, so I was going to have them tailored, but afraid to create a new problem if they shrink too much after alteration. Help!

Why don't you wash them in hot water and dry them first and then get them tailored...
