Do cotton shirts shrink while sitting in a drawer for y ears?

Cotton shirts do not shrink while sitting in a drawer for years, as shrinking typically occurs during washing and drying due to heat and agitation. However, if the cotton has not been pre-shrunk, it may still shrink slightly the first time it’s washed, regardless of how long it sits unused. Other factors like humidity and storage conditions can affect the fabric over time, but they won't cause significant shrinkage.
