In addition to what Jerome said...

T-shirts are not "really" preshrunk.  They are compressed.  Think about putting 
on a shirt that is a little tight and you pull on the fabric to stretch it out 
and it stays.  That is compressed.  When you pull on it and it doesn't stay, it 
has shrunk (or you have grown!).  If you take care of the fabric per 
instructions on the label (which few people do), it will last longer.  The 
labels say was cold, dry medium.  My dryer says that cotton setting is hot!  
How confusing.
