Sizing Rec: Shrinking Progression

The sizing recommendations seem to be all over the place. Here is what I found when I scoured Reddit, instagram and TikTok for sizing info. I also photographed the progression of sizing when shrinking my first mockneck, as most people recommended buying it oversized then shrinking with the wash, but I couldn’t find anyone showing what it looked like after shrinking.

- 5’3” (my height) seems to be the height cutoff where people 50/50 size down for fitted look or size up for oversized look
- People report the Heritage material shrinks more than Fleece
- For photos, I am 5’3”, wearing 3” shorts. I bought a Heritage mockneck (Dunkin collab) L/XL.
- Photo 1 is right out of package, Photo 2 is after first wash (cool wash, normal dry), Photo 3 is after 2nd wash on same settings
- These photos are screenshots from videos. I’m happy with the final fit of photo 3 but please note it is still quite oversized! If I were to buy again in the future, I would probably purchase the L/XL again.

Washing Heritage Fleece

What are your tried and true washer settings for washing your heritage fleece that results in minimal shrinkage and no color transfer? I plan to wash on handwash separately and hang to dry but wasn't sure what everyone was doing.

My beef with resellers

We all know resellers can get crazy with prices… but my real issue lies with when they say “just asking what I paid!”… you’re trying to purchase an item, wear it for however long you want, wash it, dry it, and then resell for the exact same amount or more? And I’m supposed to pay what you chose to pay for it… above retail price? It’s common knowledge that when you buy an item and wear it, it is now USED CONDITION and not worth what it was brand new. I just cannot wrap my head around it. 😩 Had to vent lol

Parke Marketing

Listen, I want to preface this by saying I’m a girls girl and in no way trying to be a hater. I understand a lot of people don’t like Parke for a lot of reasons, but lowkey they are giving people something to complain about by making almost every model for their lines have just about the same exact measurements. What’s the point of even having this information if not to show different size people representing different sizes of your product?

The rest of the slides go on to show shorts, with the girls all wearing a size small. Which doesn’t do a lot of people any good.

I own a sweatshirt, I respect the hustle, but this just seems so odd to me.

What do you think will happen with the Bridal Collection? 👀

Hi everyone!

I started really getting into PARKE around the Birthday Collection, so I'm still pretty new to all of this. I wanted to ask those of you who've been following PARKE for a lot longer—what do you think the Bridal Collection drop is going to be like?

From what I've seen, Birthday → Dunkin' → Polka Dot all had a ton of hype. There was lots of PR being sent out, everyone was excited, and it felt like there was this huge rush to buy everything before it sold out. (And maybe a little drama came with all that hype too 😂)

But then the Maggie & Emma collection felt completely different to me. It seemed like it quietly launched... and then quietly ended. 😂 There wasn't that same feeling of "OMG I need to buy this RIGHT NOW before it sells out!"

I've personally been really looking forward to the Bridal Collection, so now I'm super curious about what this drop will be like.

Do you think it'll sell out really quickly again? Or do you think it'll be another quieter drop like Maggie & Emma?

And was all that craziness around the earlier drops normal for PARKE, or do you think we'll see that level of hype again with Back to School?

I'd especially love to hear from longtime PARKE shoppers who have seen a lot more drops than I have! What do you guys think? 👀

Does shipping normally take this long?

I bought a mockneck from the Maggie Emma drop at exactly 10:00. My order still hasn’t shipped yet. Does shipping normally take this long?

Ink splatters on black polka dot mockneck

Hi besties!!!! As the title says some people recieved the black mock neck with the polka dot letters with ink splatters on the white part, I am also one of those people who recieved it as well but since I got the L/XL first thing I like to do is shrink them, I put it in the wash on hot for once cycle then a second cycle on speed wash hot as well, then in the dryer for an hour. I just pulled it out of the dryer (it was inside out the entire time) and the ink splatters are gone!

Don’t buy Parke from 3rd party sellers on Reddit

Parke Navy Polka Dot Mockneck! Just a tale of caution. Myself and another Reddit member were scammed by someone in this sub. They said their name was “Michelle” and they convinced us not to use Goods and Services via Venmo. (I know, I know, dumb and against my better judgment.) They pretended they were sending the mockneck and even went as far as to send pictures of it along with “shipping out tonight!”. The next day, Reddit account is deleted and they’ve blocked me on Venmo.

Without the Goods and Services protection, Venmo is requiring a lot of additional steps. I’ve had to file a police report against this person and involve my bank. It’s considered mail fraud/wire fraud to take the money and not ship the item, hence the police report. I added an extra step of reporting to the FBIs internet crime center because I’m pissed and don’t want anyone else to be taken advantage of by this person.

TLDR: don’t buy anything without G+S protection, or buy from Depop/Poshmark/EBay where you have buyer protection.

Maggie and Emma drop

I had no idea how much people didn’t like today’s drop. The bloom mockneck is sold out in S/M and that’s it. The other ones are still available in every size. The clips sold out first and things are starting to sell out but I really thought this drop would go so quickly. I got the bloom mockneck and had my order confirmation before the clock hit 10:01. This is honestly one of my favorite drops besides birthday. I will say I prefer the fleece material and can’t wait for it to come back in the fall

Is this normal?

My cupcake mockneck has a part of bunching on both sleeves. None of my other mocknecks have this. Anyone else?!
