The present invention involves a process whereby fabric constructed of 100% or primarily cotton fabric is treated to produce fabric which will have a predicted degree of shrinkage and density. Garments are constructed oversize from such prepared fabric to allow for the predicted shrinkage. The garments are moisturized within a range of 15%-30% while the garments are being agitated and subsequently tumble-dried. Such garments shall have reduced residual shrinkage of up to 95%, superior hand and appearance.
