Shrinks

For years I bought the Eddie Bauer T-shirts at Sams. Great shirts. Lasted very well. A few months ago, I bought what I thought were more EB T-shirts. Exact same location in store, same stacked box display. Similar enough that I didn't notice they were Member's Mark. After just a few washings, each of them (I bought 3, each a different color) started pilling a lot around the collar.. After 10 or so washings, they were so pilled that I donated them. By comparison, the Eddie Bauer T's have probably been washed 50-60 times and still look great. As I recall the EB T's were a buck or two more expensive. But, clearly they were made from superior fabric. You get what you pay for, I guess. I hope Sam's brings back the EB T's. These are a waste of money

I used to buy the Eddie Bauer T-shirts but they replaced them with these. I’m usually happy with Members Mark brand but these tees are awful. I bought one of each color at my store and they all look terrible after one washing. Cheap material balls up and looks like a ten year old shirt after the first wear. Will never buy again. Bring back the EB shirts, these are a waste of money.

These t-shirts seem to have replaced the Eddie Bauer shirts that Sam's previously sold. I have noticed with a couple of these that little pills form on the fabric very easily. The fit it ok. I am disappointed the Eddie Bauer t-shirts are no longer available. I will not buy any more of the current Member's Mark shirts.

As of 4/15/24, the webpage currently lists these t-shirts as the 60% Pima Cotton, 40% Polyester version. I bought a few of these in my local club expecting to get more of the this version because even though they start to pill badly after a few washes, they hold their shape well, maintain their color, and don't shrink. What I got, however, appears to be a new/different version that is 100% cotton (regular cotton, not pima) that shrunk so much that I thought I accidentally grabbed my wife's shirt and is completely unwearable for me. Even before the one and only wash, it felt a bit smaller than what I had previously. Please bring back the Pima Cotton version! It was truly one of the best t-shirts on the market. At >$10, it was like stumbling upon a life changing amount of buried treasure. I'd happily pay twice as much for that same quality if I had the chance again. For now, I'll keep wearing the ones I have since they've held up so well after two years of constant wear/wash/dry cycles. But I'd absolutely love some new ones. These current ones are beyond disappointing.

These member mark t-shirts do not look, feel, or wear like the long time Eddie Bauer t-shirts sold for years now at Sam's Club. I am sure Sam's club has Eddie Bauer make them. However, they lowered the quality so make more money. Bring back the t-shirt designed in house at Eddie Bauer and raise the price a little if Sam's needs to make more money. But Sam's hands in designing this t-shirt is a two thumbs down job.

These shirts used to fit true to size, but not anymore. I bought 3 for my husband and they're 2 sizes too small. When you wash them in cold water and dry at extra low heat, they shrink! Now they're 3 sizes too small. I guess they'll go in the Goodwill bag.

These tee shirts are no where close to the quality of the Eddie Bauer tee's that Sam's Club used to sell at the same price. Adequate at best and they pill up easily. Unfortunately many name brands have disappeared in favor of some lesser Members Mark products.

The pilling on these shirts is terrible. I bought aboit 10 of them in various colors, just because they felt even softer than their predecessor (Eddie Bauer TShirts). After a single wash, the pilling is out of control. I cannot bekieve these have a 5 star rating. Madness!! Avoid them and just wait for Eddie Bauers holiday sales. These are terrible!

After washing the Member's Mark Essential Crew New Tee t60% Pima Cotton 40% Polyester) the material balled up. Evidently the Eddy Bowers brand t-shirts were substituted with the Members Mark Brand. The tag did suggest machine cold on gentle cycle and tumble dry low. Did not have to with the Eddy Bowers brand.
